A common metabolic by-product produced when the body breaks down alcohol, glucose and food high in fibre can enhance memory, at least in females go.nature.com/4ryZglX
This compound enhances long-term memory of mice — but only in females

This compound enhances long-term memory of mice — but only in females

Nature - Acetate helps the female rodents form memories but is less effective in males.

Hey ventral pallidum fans, our new paper shows #VP GABA neurons, known for reward, also regulate aversive motivation! Inhibiting them w/#DREADDs 🔼 active or passive defenses to threats, likely via LHb. Congrats to @ramirezneurosci & Marty Martinez! doi.org/10.1016/j.ynstr.2026…

How can you know if gene delivery in a primate worked? Typically through expensive scans or histology. With @VincentCostaPhd and first authors @sangsin_lee and McKenna Romac we made synthetic markers that monitor gene delivery and Cre-dependent expression with a blood test. PDF👇

Intriguing! What do the behavioral neuroscientists think of this? "A virtual rodent predicts the structure of neural activity across behaviors" nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
A virtual rodent predicts the structure of neural activity across behaviours

A virtual rodent predicts the structure of neural activity across behaviours

Nature - We built an artificial neural network to control a biomechanically realistic virtual rodent, which, when trained to imitate real rats, predicts neural activity and variability across...
