The Trump administration's efforts to slash research funding have US graduate students, postdocs and other early-career scientists fearing for their careers. Some are considering changing jobs or leaving the country. Others say them might abandon research altogether.

After 5 years of data collection (179 first-time mothers + controls), and 2 years of data analyses and article writing, the first @BeMotherProject paper is out! We uncovered a U-shaped trajectory in maternal GM volume, resolving a long-standing puzzle in the maternal brain field.
Can’t believe our new @NatureComms paper is out! ✨🧠🤰
We tracked a cohort of 179 women before, during, and post-pregnancy, revealing a U-shaped trajectory in the mother’s brain structure linked to steroid hormone fluctuations and maternal attachment.

#Endometriosis: addressing the roots of slow progress
Governments need to formulate plans that not only include measurable targets & interventions across the care pathway but also address the need to change the culture around women, pain & periods.

ALT Cover of The Lancet, Oct 5 issue: "Termed the missed disease...endometriosis affects 10% of women of reproductive age globally, but standards of care are unacceptably poor."
Thanks for sharing our paper @hubermanlab 🧠
Your brain ain’t the same at different times of the day. Super interesting study:

This paper is a sibling to @hannahgrotz's work published in #JNeuro in May, and to the OG 28 & Me pubs…the family is growing 👨👩👦👦
