Turns out early-life stress has lasting effects on brain development! 🧠 Our new work in @BrenhouseLab shows blocking CRHR1 can allow normal pubertal development and reduced anxiety-like behaviour in rats. 🐀 Published in @HormBehav @SBNTweets doi.org/10.1016/j.yhbeh.2026…

First, first author paper from my Ph.D. 🥹 See how different windows of early life stress have different developmental outcomes! 🐀 🧠 @BrenhouseLab @prabarna Thank you @BrenhouseLab ❤️

Our scientists with over 150 collaborators have released the largest functional map and wiring diagram of the brain to date – seven years in the making. Today’s 1.6 petabyte release marks a historic day for neuroscience. This moonshot milestone will further efforts towards understanding the cortical mechanisms of intelligence. Congratulations to the teams who made this possible.

Withania Somnifera (Ashwagandha) has been used for centuries in Indian traditional medicine as an 'adaptogen' that boosts stress resilience, but the cellular mechanisms and key beneficial bioactives that drive putative neuroprotective effects remain unclear @SashainaEF

So grateful to be a part of the lab. Happy 25 Hutment ❤️🐭

Scientists also look like this ♥️ #Internationaldayofwomenandgirlsinscience

Smith gained a 💎 So proud @joce_breton ❤️

Thrilled to share the notice of award for my F31 NRSA application with NIDA!Science truly takes a village, and I’m feeling particularly built up by mine today.

In @elife: A toolbox for ablating excitatory and inhibitory synapses doi.org/10.7554/eLife.103757… Congratulations Don and Aida!

Congrats, @TIFR_Bio faculty @shubhatole @TIFRScience, for election as @IBROorg president. We are sure you will "further IBRO’s efforts towards diversity, equity, and inclusion” while advancing the other missions of this global neuroscience organization. ibro.org/ibro-elections-2024…

Stop by poster K9 if you’re at #SfN2024 this afternoon if you want to talk about early life adversity and pro social behavior! 🐭 @SfNtweets #neuroscience

If you’re at #sfn2024 this afternoon swing by my poster J25 to discover how early life adversity affects pubertal development and anxiety-like behaviors in adolescent rats and what role the CRHR1 receptor plays in all this! #conference #neuroscience @sfntweets

🥁DRUMROLLS 🥁 Taking baton from @JasterAlaina, @JonahPadawer and I are hosting a #Psychedelics Social at #sfn2024 🧠. Do sign up and join us if you are around! @SfNtweets Sign up here (or scan QR code): forms.office.com/r/Ev6Tf5DvK….

Today may be October 3rd, but on Wednesdays, the @BrenhouseLab wears pink (while presenting @SfNtweets)! Stop by to hear the amazing recent work from our lab, and ask us why all of our posters had to go through a Mean Girls makeover this year!

Great to see @Newsweek covering our recent publication. newsweek.com/psychedelic-dru…

I am super excited to see this work finally out 💃and delighted to have gotten an opportunity to be a part of such an amazing team. Always grateful to @PraachiTiwari and @ViditaVaidya ❤️

Really glad to have this work identifying the key role of PV-neurons in the ventral hippocampus in gating the anxiolytic actions of the serotonergic psychedelic, DOI, out in @NeuroCellPress @TIFRScience sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

🚨Our lab’s first #preprint is out! 🎉 We present QD-Pi (pardon the pun)—a new way to track keypoints in freely moving animals! Check it out ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Attended two conferences in June as a first-year PhD student—what an invigorating experience! Meeting top scientists and engaging in scientific discussions was incredible. Feeling so welcomed by the scientific community. Thank you to @BrenhouseLab @SBNTweets @StressNeuro2024
