Curious how astrocyte diversity rewires circuits & drives brain health/disease? Join our S24 symposium “Astrocyte Heterogeneity: Synapses → Behavior” at the XVII European Glia Meeting on Thu 10 Jul 2025! Proud #IBROSpeakerSupport awardee. See you there! #IBRO #IBROinEurope

Astrocytic Ensemble at vHip-NAc synapses Modulates Cognitive Impairments Induced by Chronic THC Exposure Cannabis is the most widely used illicit drug, particularly during adolescence, and its consumption disrupts glutamate homeostasis and synaptic plasticity in the nucleus accumbens (NAc). While astrocy...

🚨New preprint alert!🚨
Excited to share our latest research led by @crismonteagudo.bsky.social on how accumbal #astrocyte ensembles modulate #THC impairments. Huge thanks to our collaborators: Nagore Puente, Pedro Grandes, Giovanni Marsicano, and Ana Covelo.🧪🐁🧠✨

The overlooked astrocyte: Star-shaped brain cells may form specialized networks for reward learning Most neuroscience research carried out up to date has primarily focused on neurons, the most renowned type of cell in the human brain. As a result, the unique functions of other brain cell types are l...

Kicking off our Bluesky profile celebrating our newest publication in @natureneuro.bsky.social! Using our new tool AstroLight we demonstrate that a specific group of #astrocytes —an astrocyte ensemble— in the nucleus accumbens regulates cue-motivated behavior. Check it out!✨https://rdcu.be/d8qJi
