On my way to Barcelona where I will be attending the Parental Brain conference #PB2025
Last time, I was only able to follow online, so I am really grateful to go this time and give a talk on my postdoc project!

J'ai besoin de votre aide !

On a recontruit une petite communauté ici pour @pintofscience.fr mais rien à voir avec ce qu'on avait sur Twitter 🫠

Si le cœur vous en dit, partagez le post d'aujourd'hui, suivez le compte, parlez en autour etc, ça nous aiderait BEAUCOUP à lancer #pint25 !!

MERCI 🫶✨️

Exclusive: how NSF is scouring research grants for violations of Trump’s orders The US National Science Foundation has unfrozen grant funding, but it continues to scrutinize research projects, sowing turmoil.

Je ne vois pas d'autre but que de bloquer la recherche, de museler les sciences. Parce que je ne peux pas me dire qu'avec une liste aussi longue, ils n'ont pas conscience que ça impacte quasi tous les champs de recherche.

La liste me rend tellement furieuse.

Womb. They would love for us to only be that. Let's be honest, women existing and saying what they think, fighting for their rights (in health, work, life...) is a bit annoying.

This is terrible. But if you are not in the US, I am sorry to say that if far-right political parties reach the presidency, it would probably be the same. I am in France and have little doubt about it (even though I would sometimes just like to be naïve)

WOMEN and FEMALE are red flag words. (Men, male are not on the list). Let that sink in.

I am so grateful for vaccines. Especially when my 2 years old has the flu, so I have not slept for 2 days and I am still not sick 🙏🏼

Am I the only one who cannot remember why I planned some experiments after the holidays? I received some mice and I can't remember why 😂

First visit of the history museum in Paris for my son during the holidays. A week later, he still talks about the dinosaures ☺️

Can we discuss about the migraine resulting from watching too many mice videos? (and the high consumption of chocolate and podcasts)

1/✨ New paper in #eNeuro! We looked at how dominance behaviors vary across mouse strains—turns out, it’s not one-size-fits-all!
Comparing CD1 & C57 male mice, we found strain-specific dominance behaviors that could change how we study social hierarchy in the lab…🧵

Women are under-represented at senior levels in #academia globally, & across all #science 🧪 disciplines, as shown by these "scissor-shaped curves" ✂️

So how can we ever achieve #gender #equality?

We discuss various strategies in this #Cell Commentary

Just In case people need to follow people in neuroscience focused on natural behaviors and the brains of cool non-trad animals! Please join let me know if you wanna be added. go.bsky.app/AcLpM4h

I wonder if there isn't a difference between people who did graduate school in Europe or in the US. I was in France, it took 4 years to finish and even though it was not always sunshine and rainbows, I never felt miserable. I just had to learn to say no, to avoid being overworked 😅

Thank you! That comment always annoys me and I found myself arguing many times with my (male) colleagues.

‘A place of joy’: why scientists are joining the rush to Bluesky Researchers say the social-media platform — an alternative to X — offers more control over the content they see and the people they engage with.

What better way to broaden your horizons than to follow a bunch of scientists on Bluesky? www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Doing animal behaviour is accepting that today, your mouse do not want to walk around. I had such a nice preliminary result before that one 😭

Hello!
I am trying to connect with other scientists! I am doing my postdoc on maternal behaviour in mice. Studying how neurons are activated during pup care between mothers and virgins.
