Gracie Peck's paper just came out on BioRxiv! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…


Synaptogyrin-3 Prevents Cocaine Addiction and Dopamine Deficits biorxiv.org/content/10.110…


Ian Maze's talk at #CatecholaminesGRC was fantastic! Dopaminylation apparently controls everything!

New paper from @alexcwsmith89 and me. We started working on this open source, scalable video recording pipeline a few years ago and it saved us a ton of money when we started our labs. Big thanks to Addiction Neuroscience and guest editor @DrJKhokhar! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Hey @BlackInNeuro! My amazing HS summer student presented his work today at @EinsteinMed summer poster session!! He worked SO HARD learning extracellular electrophysiology AND how to program in python to analyze his data! I'm so proud!The future is BRIGHT! #BlackInNeuro

There is data showing women are under cited. To combat this I start every talk with a slide where I set up the talk but only with work from a single woman’s lab. It lets me highlight the amazing work done by women and remind people of papers they should be citing!

Can you provide any explication on this strategy, for those of us who weren't able to attend? 😃

The first scientific paper I ever read was in Pharmacological Reviews. Crazy to be sharing one of my very own. Check out our newest review on mGlu receptor allosteric modulators as novel treatments for neuropsychiatric disease! pharmrev.aspetjournals.org/content/74/3/6…


Check out some amazing work from our previous MD/PhD student, Dr. Paige Estave!!!

It was great to sit down with Dr. @PaigeEstave at #AHSAM22 to talk about the incorporation of mindfulness into #migraine care and the data she presented here in Denver. Check out the clips from our conversation, coming soon to NeurologyLive.com!

Last up for Jones lab posters #Dopamine2022 is our newest postdoc Conner Wallace. He is presenting his work in collaboration with @SalahpourAli characterizing the DA terminal kinetics in a novel mouse model of DAT deficiency syndrome! Come check it out! @DopamineSociety


Up next for Jones lab posters at Dopamine2022 is @BriannaEGeorge presenting her work on how early-life stress and dopamine function converge to drive increased heroin vulnerability! Come see her poster today at 2-A-12! #Dopamine2022 @DopamineSociety
