Emotional memories persist because the prefrontal cortex engages distinct protein synthesis programs to store memories and to update them during retrieval. Read more in our latest work: biorxiv.org/content/10.648…

We @ShresthaLab enjoyed a hearty home-cooked meal (plus Secret Santa, ping-pong, and Bingo to add to the fun) to celebrate the holiday season, especially as we near our lab’s 5-year birthday! 🎉 Wishing you and your (lab) families a joyful holiday break.

I’m excited to share our latest work examining why stress-related anxiety is so common in Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC), a neurodevelopmental disorder affecting ~1 in 6,000 individuals worldwide. rdcu.be/eVkaG

It was my pleasure to host our NBB seminar speaker, Dr Dayu Lin @moccalin last Thursday. What a genuinely remarkable scientist, speaker and science communicator! Her seminar on Neuroplasticity underlying parenthood was exemplarily lucid and appreciated by all. 🙌

Warm welcome to our incoming PhD students—especially our former lab manager, Andrew Gallagher, and rotation student, Pat Wertimer! Until this summer, Pat was a lab technician in the Heintz lab @RockefellerUniv, where I completed my PhD. In a way, a full circle moment. :)

We are very excited to start the new semester and greet our new graduate students! Please help us give them a warm welcome!

Such a pleasure to host @RangarajuVidhya, who gave a *terrific* talk today on molecular mechanisms that provide spatially-restricted energy supply to fuel local synaptic plasticity!

We are excited to be kicking off our fall seminar speaker today in LSB 038 at 12:00 noon! Find Dr. Vidhya Rangaraju, Research Group Leader, Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience, speaking on "Molecular and Structural Adaptations of Brain Energy Supply." All details below!
