So proud of @AmartyaPradhan - wonderful to see this work out in @EJNeuroscience pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/4283…

According to @Angarika13 , a PHD candidate and @Northeastern, it's not a matter of one or the other. Our genes and our environment are constantly interacting throughout life.

Our scientists with over 150 collaborators have released the largest functional map and wiring diagram of the brain to date – seven years in the making.
Today’s 1.6 petabyte release marks a historic day for neuroscience. This moonshot milestone will further efforts towards understanding the cortical mechanisms of intelligence. Congratulations to the teams who made this possible.

Withania Somnifera (Ashwagandha) has been used for centuries in Indian traditional medicine as an 'adaptogen' that boosts stress resilience, but the cellular mechanisms and key beneficial bioactives that drive putative neuroprotective effects remain unclear @SashainaEF

Scientists also look like this ♥️ #Internationaldayofwomenandgirlsinscience

Today may be October 3rd, but on Wednesdays, the @BrenhouseLab wears pink (while presenting @SfNtweets)! Stop by to hear the amazing recent work from our lab, and ask us why all of our posters had to go through a Mean Girls makeover this year!

Really glad to have this work identifying the key role of PV-neurons in the ventral hippocampus in gating the anxiolytic actions of the serotonergic psychedelic, DOI, out in @NeuroCellPress @TIFRScience sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

🚨Our lab’s first #preprint is out! 🎉 We present QD-Pi (pardon the pun)—a new way to track keypoints in freely moving animals! Check it out ⬇️⬇️⬇️
First paper from the lab biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…! Long story short: @ezeyulu00, @AmartyaPradhan, @DKoveal and I developed a method using injectable nanoparticles to turn mice into…constellations in motion.

🚨📣Out now as a preprint on @biorxivpreprint My first first author paper (❗️) in the @brenhouse lab shows pre- and post-synaptic effects of early life adversity resulting in age- and sex-specific behavioral outcomes 🐭🧠 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Interested in how the postnatal environment shapes microglial function and cognition? 🤔 Check out my first (😄) first author paper with @BrenhouseLab and @kelsearian now out in @PLOSONE 🤩

Unused drink tickets are the least sad part of leaving @SBNTweets early… Be sure to stop by poster #4 later to talk to @Angarika13 about CRH, early life stress, and accelerated puberty!

The prevalence of fundamental neuroscience education at college level in India is severely limited. For a subject area that’s at the centre of important scientific discoveries, technological inventions & translational targets, this is extremely worrisome.
