I am so proud to share @forrestdrogers.bsky.socialβs postdoctoral magnum opus, now out in @nature.com! Forrest discovered a novel role for Agouti in the MPOA of the hypothalamus to integrate socio-environmental information to flexibly tune paternal behavior

Together with the scientific symposium on the menopausal transition happening in Belgrade a day earlier, Serbian scientists and clinicians are leading the way on how to study and educate people on this topic! Knowledge is power! #WomensHealth

Enjoyed listening to Marina Abramovic talk about art and life this evening at the Great Hall of the Cooper Union. Always hilarious and inspiring! She also announced a new exhibition Balkan Erotic Epic happening in Dec 2026 at Park Avenue Armory!

Yes, I think so - thyroid hormones have such powerful effect on brain function including on synaptic plasticity & emotion/cognition! It makes sense that demand for T4 increases when estrogen is high, particularly during pregnancy. But who knows... maybe there are more to Ttr function than we know!

So we've done a lot to develop Ttr story - from hormone treatments (w/ bulk qRT-PCR not scRNA-seq) to Ttr overexpression exp. It was done by multiple people in the lab, w/ reproducibility across cohorts, gene expression methods & experimenters. I was stunned by Ttr in peripartum dataset - amazing! π
