Reshares appreciated 😊
Thanks @ebbsociety.bsky.social for this amazing opportunity! It’s a pleasure for me to share my work at such international conference. #FENS2026
I’m delighted to announce that I’ve been awarded a #MargueriteMarieDelacroix research grant to continue studying ASD-related biological mechanisms in a new mouse model. I’m deeply grateful for the renewed support and looking forward to starting this new project. Stay tuned for the results!
Starting 2026 at the Wöhrlab’s New Year Dinner!🎄 Grateful for this team and excited for all the science ahead.

Konrad Danielewski has just started our first @deeplabcut.bsky.social workshop at COS!
Great poster presentation on placebo effects in a rat model for depression by Dr. Nadine Faesel at the @sfb-trr-289.bsky.social retreat. Congrats, Nadine! It was an inspiring retreat. A big thanks to @ulrikebingel.bsky.social and team.
Just attended another interesting meeting organized by #StichtingMarguerite-MarieDelacroix. Very intriguing talks and discussions. I’m very glad to be part of this!
Thanks to the organizing committee and scientific board, and for the inspiring words by Prof. Dr. Rudy Van Coster.
programme of the 4th USV conference has been published. if you registered, you should have received an email for the conference (zoom) link.
i am so excited to listen about these thrilling studies and to learn about different software assessing USV patterns.

Thrilled to have spent the last few days at the last CRC 393 Scientific Retreat in Dresden!
Huge thanks to everyone who stopped by my poster and shared their insights. What a great time we all spent together!

It’s that time of the year again: LBP retreat! Rudi D’Hooge and @markuswohr.bsky.social labs gathered together for 2 full days of science. A special thank you to Dr. Elodie Ey for bringing her expertise on animal research to this event!
Welcome in our group, Henry!
Fabrice de Chaumont et al. showcase how the integration of ultrasound recording and behavioral analysis can provide novel insight into mouse social behavior, linking ultrasonic calling to urination behavior.
Another great contribution to our special issue:

Perfect combination: Good weather, beautiful mountains, and awesome science – retreat of the @dfg.de-funded RTG2271 Breaking Expectations. Thanks to @parnian-saberi.bsky.social from the @wohrlab.bsky.social for her inspiring talk on serotonin and expectancy violations.
Serotonin deficiency in the brain leads to deficits in mother-offspring interaction, maternal affiliation, and social adjustment. Can this be rescued by early social enrichment? New study led by @tianhuawang.bsky.social @unimarburg.bsky.social. Thanks to all collaborators. doi.org/10.1016/j.pn...
Wöhr Lab at @ibnsconnect.bsky.social having great time sharing exciting science and enjoying the amazing landscape. Now ready to bring new ideas and inspiration back to the lab 💪🏼 @ozgesungur.bsky.social @Theresa Kisko @tianhuawang.bsky.social
Grateful for the opportunity to contribute to the @eraneuron.bsky.social MINERVA consortium on microglia/neuron crosstalk in autism – @leuvenbrainins.bsky.social, with amazing collaborators: Tarja Malm, Carsten Culmsee, Judith Alferink, Laura Ricceri! Exciting meeting @unimarburg.bsky.social!
Inspiring @eraneuron.bsky.social MINERVA meeting @unimarburg.bsky.social with great presentations by Carsten Wotjak from @boehringerglobal.bsky.social and Theresa Kisko from @wohrlab.bsky.social (KU Leuven). Thanks to Carsten Culmsee for making this happen!
Can we study placebo effects in rodents? At the @sipsplacebo.bsky.social ECR Summer School in Kraków, Poland, I was proposing that we can do so by using ultrasonic vocalizations as a key element of the anticipatory response. Thanks for the great round table discussions, @sfb-trr-289.bsky.social!
On Sunday morning, we continued with great impulse talks on topics like placebo effects in animals and special populations as well as open-label placebos.
Thanks to all speakers: @markuswohr.bsky.social, Lene Vase, and Julia Haas!
Tomorrow tuesday afternoon at @vssmtg.bsky.social , our poster about what it takes for the brain and AI models to process the valence of complex and ambiguous social scenes
Theresa Kisko & Fábio Sousa had such a great visit to the IGBMC in Strasbourg to work hard on our exciting collaboration using the Live Rat Tracker with Dr Elodie Ey! The trip was supported by FWO/TOURNESOL mobility grant awarded to Dr Elodie Ey and Dr Theresa Kisko.
Excited to study brain evo-devo in cephalopods? We are looking for a postdoc to join our team to understand how octopus manages to grow a large brain 🐙
