The discovery paves the way for a new type of antidepressant that inhibits the chemical (SGK1). “Current antidepressants are often less effective for people with a history of childhood adversity," says the study's leader @Der_Scientist. Read more: cuimc.columbia.edu/news/brain-che…

New paper from our lab out this week! We show that hippocampal SGK1 links early life adversity, stress, and genetic risk to depression, and that inhibiting SGK1 promotes resilience, boosts neurogenesis, and rescues dentate gyrus function. Link ⬇️ nature.com/articles/s4138…


New paper out from @anacker_lab in @npp_journal ! We show sex-specific effects of early life adversity on future stress vulnerability in adolescence and adulthood, and how they can be rescued by targeting the serotonin system.

Our new paper is out in ⁦@npp_journal⁩ showing female-specific effects of early adversity on stress reactivity, adult neurogenesis, and neuroinflammtion across development, and how they can be rescued by raphe 5HT1A knockdown and increased serotonin! nature.com/articles/s4138…



Huge congratulations to our fantastic postdoc Maryam Hasantash for receiving a 2024 NARSAD Young Investigator Award to study neural circuits of stress susceptibility and resilience! #BBRFoundation

Check out our new paper by Twitter-less John Bickle showing that activating 5-HT1A (hetero-) receptors in the dentate gyrus inhibits neuronal activity and confers resilience to social defeat stress in mice! ⁦⁦@anacker_lab⁩ ⁦@Der_Scientistbiologicalpsychiatryjournal.com/article/S0006-…

Check out this new paper by @MilennavanDijk in collaboration with @Der_Scientist showing that Dentate Gyrus microstructure in humans is associated with vulnerability and resilience to maternal stress exposure! Great translation of our rodent findings into human populations.

Such a fantastic comprehensive paper from @MitoPsychoBio lab characterizing stress effects on mitochondria across the brain. So happy to have been part of this great collaboration!
