I love that neuroscience is interdisciplinary. Who would have thought I'd be an author on a paper titled A Review of the Neuroscience of Religion...? All the credit for this goes to an amazing former undergraduate student!

The Cost of the Government’s Attack on Columbia American universities have given the country prosperity and security. The Trump administration’s attack on academic freedom endangers all of that.

Excellent excellent excellent from Princeton president and constitutional/ political theorist Chris Eisgruber. There's been far too little of this kind of thing; here's hoping others follow his good example.

VOICES: Stand up for science in Ohio I was born and raised in Middletown, went to public schools, and am a proud graduate of Middletown High School. Thirty years ago, I left Middletown and went north to attend the University of Michigan....

I am from Middletown, OH, (the same hometown as JD Vance) and was especially compelled by the @sciencehomecoming.bsky.social movement. I am happy to have my article out on this #standupforscience2025 day. #sciencenotsilence

NIH ban on renewing senior scientists adds to assaults on its in-house research Policy follows firings of tenure-track scientists and suspension of training programs

The NIH is being gutted. 🧵

Exclusive: NIH appears to archive policy requiring female animals in studies Such a shift would “put us back in the dark ages in terms of our science,” says neuroscientist Anne Murphy, who helped to formulate the original policy.

Great write up at @thetransmitter.bsky.social on the seeming erasure of SABV in the new era of NIH. Gotta say The Transmitter is killing it the last few weeks, first to report on the Federal Register block and now this. Leading the charge! 💪 www.thetransmitter.org/policy/exclu...

Neurotoxicology and Alcohol study section meeting scheduled for tomorrow is canceled. Not surprising right now but 😞

I've spent the last 2 weeks reviewing NIH grants. Grants that will fund research developing new therapies for addiction and children exposed to the toxic effects of drugs in the womb. It's so disheartening knowing much of this work won't happen due to funding cuts to NIH and universities.

Special shout out this AM to NIH 🧪 grant mgmt specialists, POs, and SROs during this chaotic time - THANK YOU for caring for our grants and uploading scores/summary statements despite the unprecedented challenges you may be facing. You are science warriors and we APPRECIATE & SUPPORT YOU 🫶

There are so many things to be angry about, but knowing that trainees are missing opportunities and losing their jobs for applying to the wrong grant mechanism is at the top of my list right now

Early life stress paired with adolescent alcohol consumption reduces two‐bottle choice alcohol consumption in mice Early life stress is associated with an increased risk of alcohol use disorder and posttraumatic stress disorder. We previously used an infant footshock model in rats that produces increases in fear ...

I am happy to be able to continue promoting the success of my trainees. Congrats to Thomas Perry on his first first-author publication!

Well, I made it over here. Hi 👋to those who have followed so far! I'm not sure what I want my social media presence to be like these days, but maybe Bluesky will inspire me to get back into it :)
