Rescuing nicotinic responses in aging by harnessing muscarinic signaling pathways. I'm so excited to have this project out, thank you @Sridevi292 @LambeLab @physiologyuoft. Check it out here rdcu.be/c3jbU
Need to recover lost #nicotinic currents? It is possible even in the older brain with #xanomeline & #NS9283. Paper now @npp_journal Kudos to stellar graduate students @saigepower @sridevi292 @physiologyuoft Here's the link: rdcu.be/c3ij5

@Luna3150 @physiologyuoft used optophysiology to show that #CCK interneurons inhibit ventral hippocampus neurons tagged with #retrobead labelling from the nucleus accumbens. Great working with @jckimlab again!

I’m at #SfN2023 presenting my latest work in the @LambeLab. Come visit… 🐁 C10 (ACh in Alzheimer’s) ⚡️ C41 (Serotonin in PFC) Our Alzheimer’s work is now on bioRxiv (tinyurl.com/43uy78rd) and you can come ask me questions Tuesday (tomorrow) morning from 8-12pm at C41!

Exciting NMDA receptor work from great current and former lab mates @Sridevi292 @binko_mary and collaborators @camielnik @ajr937
What happens when Grin1 deficiency leaves neurons with too few NMDA receptors (NMDARs)? Turns out there is a selective loss of extrasynaptic NMDARs compromising dendritic plateaus. Adult genetic intervention can bring them back! NMDARs #beingextra biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Excited to be here at #SfN2022 ! Come chat with me about cholinergic deficits in aging & nicotinic rescue by xanomeline on Monday afternoon at poster D31!

I may be "bi"ased but I'm looking forward to the work that'll come out of this on #bisexual health & well-being!

Looking forward to #CAN2022 this week! I’m presenting my poster on aging and prefrontal cholinergic signalling on Sunday from 1:30-3:30 (P3-B-39) @CAN_ACN. Come on by to see mine and @LambeLab‘s work!
