Excited to share our preprint focusing on flexible dopamine responses to intraoral sucrose across acquisition and extinction of conditioned taste aversion. @BaseDownLoh @SamjHurh @PBazzino @RachelDonka Alex Keinath @jamiedroitman
Dopamine activity encodes the changing valence of the same stimulus in conditioned taste aversion paradigms biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor… #biorxiv_neursci

How a crying baby is similar to denoising an ephys rig: 1) There's noise and you don't know why 2) You need to stay grounded 3) You have superstitious beliefs about what actions stop the noise 4) These actions work sometimes but not always 5) The noise can randomly start again

Drugs like Ozempic are great for weight loss, but they make some people feel sick. We discovered that the brain circuits mediating the appetite suppression are distinct from those that mediate nausea – a finding that may be leveraged to develop more selective GLP1-based drugs.

Now published in Research Policy: I looked at 27k postdoc salaries across the US, their relationship to cost of living, tenure-track job prospects, and how things have been changing over time. Here's what I found: doi.org/10.1016/j.respol.202…
