1. Today the NIH director issued a new directive slashing overhead rates to 15%. I want to provide some context on what that means and why it matters. grants.nih.gov/grants/guide...

New paper out in Cell Reports! Led by @susieyufeng.bsky.social, we found that chronic epilepsy in mice drives distinct synchronization deficits in hippocampus and MEC, with early changes in HPC and late-onset changes in MEC that align with progressive memory impairment. www.cell.com/cell-reports...

Interested in how neural communication breaks down in a model of Alzheimer's pathology? In a new preprint, we found desynchronization in medial entorhinal–hippocampal circuits that coincided with the onset of spatial memory deficits in 3xTg mice. (1/6) www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Was so excited to attend #ACNP2024 this year. Unfortunately, stomach flu had other plans for me 😭. If you're curious about the work I'd planned to present, please reach out.

Bummer that @zachtpennington.bsky.social is missing #ACNP2024 due to stomach flu. But be sure to check out his discovery about how the anterior hypothalamus codes stress 👇 This is one of the most important, surprising, and exciting findings I've been a part of!
