Very excited to share a new paper from my lab and @ckellendonk lab out now in @molpsychiatry on how dopamine D2 receptors in accumbens cholinergic interneurons contribute to Go/No-Go behavior and shape cue-evoked acetylcholine activity in vivo: nature.com/articles/s41380-0…

Our new green ACh sensor with improved response and reduced coupling with intracellular signaling is now on @naturemethods . Congrats to Miao Jing @chinese_brain and huge thanks to all collaborators @maximoprado @lisasaksida @ornelakljakic @skirzmi @vfprado @Timothy_Bussey (1/3)
Check out the red and improved green acetylcholine sensors from the @yulonglilab. They have been used alone or in combination with e.g. calcium sensors in behaving fruit flies and rodents. nature.com/articles/s41592-0…

When someone starts an argument with "I'm not a scientist, but..." maybe we should stop listening to them weighing in on science. And maybe news shows should stop asking these pundits to talk about something they’re not qualified to talk about.

Watch out, America! #HurricaneFlorence is so enormous, we could only capture her with a super wide-angle lens from the @Space_Station, 400 km directly above the eye. Get prepared on the East Coast, this is a no-kidding nightmare coming for you. #Horizons
