Excited to share our new study in @MolecularPsych.
Using single-cell RNA seq, we mapped the hippocampus of stressed mice, identified stress-responsive neurons, oligodendrocyte changes driven by Sgk1, and GR/MR‑specific responses.

Honored to be selected as a Future Leader in Stress by @NeurobioStress. I am grateful for the recognition and inspired to keep pushing the field forward.
This perspective article captures the arc of my young scientific journey.

The article explores how early-life adversity, sex differences & individual variability shape stress susceptibility and resilience. It highlights precision tools, from single-cell technologies to AI-driven behavioral tracking, to decode stress across systems.
I'm deeply grateful to my academic mentors @BobLickliter, Margaret Fahnestock, @GustavoTurecki & @alon_chen_lab. Your mentorship, commitment to scientific excellence, and visionary leadership have laid the foundation for my research and continue to inspire my thinking to this day

Happy to share the product of a beautiful collaboration just published in @natcomms.
We investigate, in males and females, how exposure to early life adversity can shape resilience and susceptibility to stressful situations later in life.

Very happy to see this fantastic story out and published in @NatureComms! Big congratulations to my good friend @AmpatzisLab and all the members of his lab! 🍾
Excited to share @AmpatzisLab and @KizilLab's's new paper on #zebrafish 's intracardiac nervous system (IcNS), highlighting the presence of pacemaker-like neurons that partake in heart rhythm—linking cardiac and neuroscience research. nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
Beautiful new study by @CarlenLab mapping out the activity of thousands of cortical neurons! Congratulations to @Pierre_Le_Merre and team!
Our new study is out!
biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
We (@CarlenLab) mapped the mouse PFC using single-unit activity! We recorded ~23,000 neurons across cortical/subcortical regions and profiled spont. firing patterns to reveal what separates the PFC from other brain regions.
