Neuroscientist, Nature Neuroscience (@natneuro.nature.com) Chief Editor, Upstate NY mama of 2. Opinions are my own.
Check out “Frameshift,” a Q&A series in which neuroscientists with nontraditional careers discuss their work and how they made the transition away from the lab. In the first entry of the series, @shariwiseman.bsky.social shares how she went from the bench to science publishing. bit.ly/4rZkk5S
Frameshift: Shari Wiseman reflects on her pivot from science to publishing
As chief editor of Nature Neuroscience, Wiseman applies critical-thinking skills she learned in the lab to manage the journal’s day-to-day operations.

A study in Nature Neuroscience shows that high alcohol concentrations during binge drinking activate a small GABAergic neuronal ensemble in the medial orbitofrontal cortex, which subsequently reduces further alcohol consumption. 🔒
Suppression of binge alcohol drinking by an inhibitory neuronal ensemble in the mouse medial orbitofrontal cortex - Nature Neuroscience
This study demonstrates that high alcohol concentrations during binge drinking activate a small GABAergic neuronal ensemble in the medial orbitofrontal cortex, which subsequently reduces further alcohol consumption. This effect is mediated by the ensemble’s projections to the mediodorsal thalamus.

We don't publish many alcohol papers, despite its public health importance. And this is a really nice one!
