nature.com/articles/s41398-0… While many studies focused on D1 and D2 dopamine recepotrs in nucleus accumbens, we studied their role in the central amygdala. We found that while D1 neurons are mostly engaged by rewards, D2 preferentially respond to aversive stimuli.

Hey #Millennials: Here’s a great article from the @BBCNews about what you can do in your 30’s to give yourself the best shot of being healthy in your 70’s. Our CEO Eric Verdin is among those weighing in. bbc.com/future/article/20251…

Enjoy! Our new paper on social learning of mice.
A new study finds that when living in groups, mice form social networks that facilitate social learning and allow the whole group to respond to changes in their environment. scim.ag/3PCJANv @e_knapska @AlicjaPuscian @NenckiInstitute

Happy to share our last work, where we studied neurons with dopamine receptors in the Central Amygdala upon cocaine intoxication Opposing effects of rewarding and aversive stimuli on D1 and D2 types of dopamine-sensitive neurons in the central amygdala biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

In the article we used the volumetric imaging to compare cocaine and sucrose processing by the whole brain. Part of the bigger effort to track activity patterns of different psychoactive drugs ❄️🌈🍀
