Emily & Andrew had a great time sharing the important of sleep and describing the lab’s research to 50 high school students last week for the Explorations in Neuroscience Summer Camp 🧠 here at Ohio State!
Congrats to Brett Steffenilla—the lab’s first member!! 👏 In the last few weeks he successfully defended his undergrad honors thesis, made & presented his first poster, and will graduate this weekend with a degree in Neuroscience! 🎓 We can’t wait to see what you do next! 🩺

NIH Director Bhattacharya signals an end to the affirmative action program for ESI
Well, this is fascinating. Director Jayanta Bhattacharya went on the Why Should I Trust You podcast in an episode dated Feb 26, 2026 [h/t]. Around 59:00 he is answering the podcast host after she p…

Excited to welcome Yiyi Shen to the lab for a rotation through the MCDB graduate program! Yiyi graduated from @ucsandiego.bsky.social and holds a Master’s from the @salkinstitute.bsky.social where she studied sleep and circadian rhythms!
K3 is 🖐️ and she wished for a Barbie cake! I made my own frosting this time and decorating was sooo much easier. It still takes me way too long to make bday cakes, though. 😅
If you are submitting an NIH grant in February, you will be required to use SciENcv to prepare you biosketch. IT IS MUCH WORSE THAN YOU CAN POSSIBLY IMAGINE. Set aside *at least* 4 hours just to transfer an existing an biosketch into SciENcv.
Fun night listening to grad student Emily talk about the effects of alcohol 🍺 on sleep 😴 at GWIS 👩🔬 Science ‘n’ Suds!
Today, Andrew has become the first PhD Candidate in the Ingiosi Lab! Congrats, Andrew!! 🍾 #YourDidIt⭐️
First time making a turkey in 15 years, and I smoked it. Turned out super juicy and pretty easy to do!
Just got an email from my SRO for the study section that was missed in October. Good news is that they are trying to reschedule ASAP (Dec/Jan). The bad news is that CSR is mandating that only the the top third (not half) of applications will get discussed for the next 2 rounds.
Oof—not to mention other government funding agencies…
Up to 323 cancelled CSR study sections. That's more than the 204 sections cancelled earlier this year. Rescheduling is going to be a hot mess with NIH staff reductions and study section members heading into finals and holidays that limit availability. 🧪

Astrocytes help control #sleep & arousal. @ashleyingiosi.bsky.social explores a @plosbiology.org study showing that wake-promoting #histamine affects how #astrocytes respond to other signals, reducing awake time via astroglial histamine-1-receptors 🧪 Paper: plos.io/4gRj9Ap Primer: plos.io/47at1Sj
Some cool and unexpected findings regarding how astrocytes impact sleep and wakefulness through histaminergic signaling! ⭐️

I had a blast this morning talking to 3- & 4-year-olds about being a scientist 👩🔬 and brains 🧠 during our daycare’s Community Helper Week!
Talk is done! Many thanks to Peter and Carolina for organizing such a stimulating session on glia and sleep! ✨ Also thanks to the insanely bright (blue) mood lighting in our room for being wake-promoting as I navigate a 12h time difference. ✈️ #WorldSleep2025 😴

I have a first serious attempt to estimate the consequences of multi-year funding for July. For new R01s, the amount of additional expenditure was $135 M The number of additional R01s that could have been funded is 182 1/9
