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!

Far from women’s health being a “niche” area -putting more effort into understanding the multifaceted area of women’s health will lead to exciting new discoveries that will benefit all, regardless of our gender.
New from @Nature: a maternal brain hormone that builds bone 🤯🦴 During #breastfeeding, bones are stripped of calcium - yet they don't break down. A hormone discovered in lactating mice explains why not - and might someday help treat osteoporosis!🤓 nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Unused drink tickets are the least sad part of leaving @SBNTweets early… Be sure to stop by poster #4 later to talk to @Angarika13 about CRH, early life stress, and accelerated puberty!

Elena will continue to be a force of kindness, humor, and brilliance through the countless people that she touched while she was here. The shock of losing her is still very raw for all of us, but I know that in the largest sense, she hasn't gone anywhere

As @Wal_yas said below, I am sad to have lost my friend and colleague Elena Chartoff. She was a wonderful person and scientist who will be deeply missed.

If you'll be at the Stress meeting next week, come talk to Caitlyn about this work at her poster--fabulous work, @CaitlynCody2 !
🚨📣Out now as a preprint on @biorxivpreprint My first first author paper (❗️) in the @brenhouse lab shows pre- and post-synaptic effects of early life adversity resulting in age- and sex-specific behavioral outcomes 🐭🧠 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Hi Twitterverse! Have any postdoc/PI teams out there submitted an R03 together as MPI? Any advice and/or pushback?

A strong start to 2024, and to understanding pubertal timing after #earlylifetramua (1) Paper accepted to @HormBehav and (2) a NU Undergraduate PEAK award to labbie @prachi_thakur4, to take that project in a new direction!

Excited to share the new preprint from the lab. We found that early life stress (ELS) disrupts the brain-wide functional connectivity of the raphe nucleus and parsed out the individual circuits to rescue ELS-induced anxiety @RamkumarRaksha @moriah_edge @DTerstege @nk_sakib
