Out in Nature today: how next-gen GLP-1 drugs cut cravings, not just hunger. Congrats to co-first authors Lizzie, Bugra, and Isabelle in @GulerLab lab traced the circuit — drug → central amygdala → less dopamine in reward circuits. Mostly Ali's lab; we got to contribute. Proud of this team. rdcu.be/fhfOm #neuroscience #UVA

You thought you knew everything about BDNF signaling in the spinal cord? Think again. Our new preprint uses highly multiplexed single-cell signaling mass cytometry to show that the same receptor profile can mean very different things in different cells.
