- “Hard work and perseverance will overcome centuries of institutional and structural marginalization in science”
- It is with both sadness but also a great sense of excitement and optimism that I would like to announce we are moving the lab to Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences in January 2022.
- In grad school we found that stress increased endocannabinoid levels in the amygdala… it only took 20 years to figure out how and what they do!! Final chapter of @veronikakondev thesis with special thanks to @yulonglilab @GrueterLabVandy!
- Finishing up week 1 at NW! Notables:: Suit and tie every day I now drink coffee Lab equipment actually arrived! Love Chicago First department meeting successful Learned Teams Meeting so many welcoming people @NMPsychiatry and @NUFeinbergMed
- Excited our work revealing dynamic plasticity at BLA-CeA CRF/SOM neuron synapses across fear acquisition and extinction is out online today @NatureNeuro! Congratulations to Nolan Hartley and all labmates for their hard work and creativity!
- It's finally happening... We are accepting applications for translational neuroscientists to join the Northwestern community in downtown Chicago! Looking for Assistant Profs but other ranks may be considered just DM me. facultyrecruiting.northwestern.edu/apply/MTI5OA==
- Leaving for a new adventure tomorrow… After 16 years at an amazing institution I think I may have learned a few things that may be helpful to share. 👇🏾
- @TheErinCalipari giving pep talk to the lab this morning: I overheard... 1) you guys want to win this thing or what! 2) for $#*• sake no more three pointers 3) go cats (didn’t know you guys were doing cat recordings these days but cool) Inspiring!
- 45 years old today… Thankful for all the advantages I have had and help I was given along the way…looking forward to paying it forward in an amazing new life and career opportunity !
- Looking for Research Assistants and Post Doc's to work on: 1) Endocannabinoid Signaling in Stress, Anxiety,and Depression 2) Endocannabinoid Signaling in the Pathophysiology of Alcohol Use Disorder 3) Central Amygdala Glutamatergic Circuits in Fear Learning and Extinction
- Ecstatic to share grad student @TheDavidJMarcus and labmates' new paper online @NeuroCellPress this morning. Showing endocannabinoid signaling collapse contributes to stress-induced anxiety and amygdalo-cortical plasticity sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
- (Partial) Lab trip to Chicago to check out the new lab and meet new colleagues at Northwestern !
- COVID shot this AM!!! Feels like.... hope 30 min waiting period for observation, feeling good!
