1/3 It's important to note that most mApple-based biosensors exhibit blue light-illuminated photoactivation, and proper controls (e.g. mutant-sensor or biosensor-only controls) should be included in combined use with blue-light optogenetics or dual-color recording.

This report is indeed short. You have time to read it. Many of us have some power to help change it. So let’s do it.

a little human spinal cord physiology to brighten your feed. Recording by @JunNanLi5, assist by @BryanCopits and outstanding tissue recovery team (it takes a village) this afternoon. Thanks to @NIHendaddiction for funding this exciting work.

📜 Preprint alert! Our latest work on #ephys analyses of human DRG & hiPSC-derived sensory neurons is now online @biorxivpreprint Thanks to the incredible team that made this possible! We hope this will be a useful resource to #pain researchers

If you’re collaborating with Israeli PIs, think about whether you could invite one of their international trainees for a short stay so that they can get some work done while they are unable to return to their home lab.
I’ve just learned from another PI that all foreign trainees are evacuated by their embassies. The labs are emptying. This will impact Israeli science, unfortunately. I don’t think we can do much about it, but if you think there is anything we, your American colleagues, can do to help - just let us know.

Congrats to co-first authors @shamsChronicles, @MengyiXu4 and all our @NIHendaddiction U19 collaborators @UTDPainLab @robgereau et al. for building such a useful resource - harmonized.painseq.com - for studying sensory ganglia cell types across species! xitter.gq/shamsChronicles/status…

Excited to share my first postdoc study, titled “Harmonized cross-species cell atlases of trigeminal and dorsal root ganglia”. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… 1/n

New preprint from the lab! We conducted a systematic analysis of bistable optoGPCRs for presynaptic inhibition, which led to the characterization of PdCO: a bistable inhibitory OptoGPCR for multiplexed optogenetic control of neural circuits

Day 2 @NAPainSchool: Great presentation @JudyYoo! Her research focuses on how early life injury could impact the development of spinal astrocytes. #NAPainSchool

🚨Paper Alert🚨 Very happy to share my first postdoctoral work from the Gereau Lab @robgereau . This collaborative work, co-led by former member Lisa McIlvried, show that homeostatic plasticity is engaged in mouse and human DRG neurons.

We’re hiring! Projects combine genomics, in vivo ephys and synaptic physiology to understand how plasticity in basal ganglia circuits give rise to maladaptive decision making- with a focus on models of substance use disorder and chronic pain! (1/n)

Very excited to share the first paper from the lab on bioRxiv!😊Here, we establish that ketamine rescues stress-induced anhedonia via cell-type-specific adaptations as well as information integration in the NAc via discrete excitatory synapses.

Interested in optics and the brain? We are looking for a postdoc or optical engineer to join our team @WUSTLneurosci to make innovation and discoveries. If you are also at #OpticaBiophotonics23, come to my talk this Tue and talk with me at the conference.
