The friendliest neuroscientist of fear you'll ever meet. Music, food, neural circuits. Oh my!

Let’s unpack the stack: some texts from the first half of my course The Animal City. We ferret out historical patterns in urban human-animal relationships: e.g. enclosure, nuisance, &c. It is US-focused (their projects are based in Rochester), but later units hound interspecies encounters elsewhere.

Stoked for funding from the RCSA to collaborate with Jonathan @the-fadoktor.bsky.social and Nicole @nicoleferrara.bsky.social on the flexibility of emotional/motivational centers in the brain!

Excited and thankful to have received funding from @rescorp.org for a collaborative proposal with @kurtfraser.bsky.social and @nicoleferrara.bsky.social! Can we change the nature of memories? Let's find out! #scilog #tulanebrain @tulaneu.bsky.social

Don't do your postdoc in Europe, you'll lower your chances of getting a PI position in the U.S.--multiple PIs said this to me

Perfect score for the conference's R13 proposal!

Perfect score for the conference's R13 proposal!

A perfect score for the R13 proposal for the GRC Psychedelics conference #GRCPsychedelics - what a delight to receive the news before the holidays πŸ’―πŸŽ

The proposal will entirely go towards supporting travel awards and events for trainees.

Had a great time catching up with colleagues at ACNP this past week. It’s amazing that for years I had the only presentation on psychedelics, seen mostly as a curiosity, and now there were 3 symposiums and more than 20 posters! Psychedelics are here to stay!

Acute stress activates basolateral amygdala neurons expressing corticotropin-releasing hormone receptor type 1 (CRHR1): Topographical distribution and projection-specific activation in male and female... Although the basolateral amygdala (BLA) and corticotropin releasing hormone receptor type I (CRHR1) signaling are both central to the stress response,…

New lab paper in collaboration with Nick Gilpin's lab.

We examined the distribution of CRHR1 expressing neurons within the basolateral amygdala, their integration in circuits emanating to NAc and CeA and their reactivity to stress. sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Hi #ACNP! My lab studies the neural circuits controlling defensive actions. We're also interested in understanding what mediates hyperarousal after a traumatic experience. Come check out our panel on Wednesday afternoon. The New Faces of Fear. Looking forward to a great meeting!

Hello everyone! πŸ‘‹ We are a human behavioural pharmacology lab and we are currently running studies investigating psilocybin-assisted therapy, endocannabinoids, & psychiatric disorders!!

But here's a picture from our favourite lab collab thus far... our tiramisu competition from the past year!
