Assistant Professor | Life experience and hormonal influences on neural circuits that generate social behaviors | Oklahoma➡️Tulane➡️Stanford➡️Salk | He/him
I’m thrilled to be joining the Salk Institute as an assistant professor this Fall! As a kid growing up in Oklahoma and loving science, this is a dream job that I never thought would be possible. I’m incredibly thankful to everyone who's helped make this possible! 🎉🔬
Welcome Assistant Professor @DanielBayless to the Salk Institute!🎉His discoveries can teach us about how hormones and sex differences affect the #brain and underlie certain neurological conditions

Excited to share our latest paper published in @HormBehav. Loss of membrane estrogen receptor alpha in NOER (nuclear only estrogen receptor) mice impairs both short- and long-term memory. Congratulations to postdoc Alyssa DeLarge on the nice work!

Still have the warm and fuzzies from the stellar talks from each of our #DISCOVER awardees! Talking to faculty and trainees, the program was hugely stimulating for the entire @salkinstitute community from talks to panels to mini-interviews!
Day 1 of DISCOVER was so inspiring!! Amazing talks from our #DISCOVER awardees🤯😇, and I was proud of our @salkinstitute faculty showing in the blitz💪
On to Day 2..!!!
Applicants please hold the dates!
We are juggling faculty availability and development opportunities and look forward to final decisions made by April 5th.
@salkinstitute is so excited to welcome you
Now live: A special, interdisciplinary focus issue on Sex and Gender in science from Cell!!
cell.com/cell/current
The issue explores the evolution of science’s approach to understanding sex and gender—and how more accurate, precise, and inclusive approaches can lead to more rigorous scientific research.

Don’t miss out on the latest pub by @DanielBayless and the team from @NiraoShah lab @Stanford. Revealing male sexual behavior's neural circuitry & reward system - from sensory input to dopamine release! Could this shed light on human libido? 💡 hubs.ly/Q01_vJyJ0
🎉🎉 So happy to see this published! It resulted from years of work with two amazing co-first authors @0chungha and @YRenzhi and many awesome people in @NiraoShah lab. We used molecular genetics in mice to functionally map a neural circuit for male sexual behavior and reward👇😀
