@academic-chatter.bsky.social @thephdplace.bsky.social I am facilitating a Writing Retreat focused on writing an Aims page and wrote up the attached document to crystallize some thoughts. Maybe some will find it helpful. But more importantly, I’d love to hear your tips/tricks/strategies/psychology

Beautiful presentation by @briandias.bsky.social on mechanisms of intergenerational stress - inspired & excited about potential future directions from this work

Enjoyed writing this book chapter with Sam Stack, Layla Vasquez & Will Taylor.

I have a story out today about a remarkable woman named Linde Jacobs. Three years ago, at 33 years old, Linde found out that she carried a genetic mutation for a devastating brain disease, frontotemporal dementia, which begins in middle age. (Thread)

Following @daylab.bsky.social’s nice paper on eRNA regulating Fos, and then our paper showing eRNA mediated regulation of NR4A2, here’s yet another eRNA controlling NPAS4. LncRNAs for the win in the brain! www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

A long noncoding eRNA forms R-loops to shape emotional experience–induced behavioral adaptation

Emotional experiences often evoke neural plasticity that supports adaptive changes in behavior, including maladaptive plasticity associated with mood and substance use disorders. These adaptations are...

Hey #ACNP2024 attendees, UAB Neurobiology is looking to recruit 4 faculty in the areas of addiction neuroscience, iPSC/organoids, and neurodevelopmental disorders. All searches are open rank. Specific ads are forthcoming, but you can also apply at this link! uab.peopleadmin.com/postings/18636

Such a thoughtful and well-contextualized talk by @briandias.bsky.social, strengthening evidence for transgenerational epigenetic inheritance (and amazing poem to start with) Plus a recent review! osf.io/preprints/ps...

@briandias.bsky.social summarizing the #acnp2024 panel: Neural Mechanisms Underlying Mammalian Transmission of Affective and Motivated Behaviors Across Generations

New paper from the lab, where we show how the co-chaperone and psychiatric risk factor FKBP5 acts in CRH-expressing neurons to shape stress- sensitive social behavior. Deep phenotyping using #DLC and #DeepOF was key to unravel these effects. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

✨new paper✨10 yrs since we used smell to study legacies of stress (Dias & Ressler 2014). Then reversal (Aoued et al 2019), next, cause (germline RNA)+consequence (better learning) (Aoued et al 2020). My thoughts on how studies of chemosensation across species shed new light on such legacies.

Legacies of salient environmental experiences—insights from chemosensation

Abstract. Evidence for parental environments profoundly influencing the physiology, biology, and neurobiology of future generations has been accumulating in the
