Glad to share that our article is finally out! Kirk did a wonderful job designing a 3D printed stereotaxic apparatus controller for fully motorized control, customizable buttons, and a graphic user interface that allows you to load and move to preset coordinates during surgery.

Had a wonderful end of summer lab party to celebrate success in the lab. Sarah defended her MSc, Alina and Royce won graduate scholarships, Jamila and Katherine won Summer research awards, and McKenna, Alina, & Jamila were selected for oral presentations at the CLAE CERI symposium this Fall.

🚨New lab publication is out!! 🚨 In this work we reveal that astrocytes, the most abundant glial cell type, are responsible for the effects of stress and that targeting these cells completely rescued the effects of stress on neuronal activity and behaviour! Huge congrats to Lewis!! See his 🧵below

Excited to share another piece of the chicken-or-egg puzzle: Investigating the Polygenic Relationship Between Cannabis Use and Schizophrenia in the All of Us Research Program www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...

Investigating the Polygenic Relationship Between Cannabis Use and Schizophrenia in the All of Us Research Program

Objective Decades of research have identified a strong association between heavy cannabis use and schizophrenia, with evidence of correlated genetic factors. However, many studies on the genetic relat...

Increased excitability of dentate gyrus mossy cells occurs early in life in the Tg2576 model of Alzheimer’s disease - Alzheimer's Research & Therapy

Background Hyperexcitability in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is proposed to emerge early and contribute to disease progression. The dentate gyrus (DG) and its primary cell type, granule cells (GCs) are im...
