Ever wonder how individuals decide what to eat & what to avoid? We used our novel #OperantLearningAssay (Open-LA) to let #Drosophila control their sensory world and study their motivated choices over time. Read my full work with @karlakaun.bsky.social & co-authors at doi.org/10.1242/jeb....
accepted today :)

Thanks to the Hunter/NYU BP-ENDURE program for awarding me the Peer Mentor Travel Award that made the trip possible and to my advisor, Carolina, for her continuous support.
Extremely grateful for the opportunity to attend the Society for Neuroscience meeting in San Diego last week. I had the chance to serve on an amazing panel at this year’s ENDURE meeting alongside incredible neuroscientists, and I also presented a poster on our MDMA-assisted therapy work.
going to @sfn.org and want to learn about an active placebo for mdma-assisted therapy RCTs? 🧪
stop by our poster on Tuesday :)

wait so i can’t apply for the nsf anymore? 🧍🏽
And that's a wrap! I had a ton of fun at the inaugural New England Addiction Neuroscience Research Conference Friday and am looking forward to seeing everyone next year, if not sooner! newenglandaddictionconsortium.wordpress.com/annual-confe...
presented my first data blitz on our MDMA-assisted therapy work at the first new england addiction neuroscience (NEAN) research conference, hosted at brown. thanks to the organizers for the opportunity! @karlakaun.bsky.social
super proud of my undergrad, Leeah Han, for presenting her project on metabolic hormones as predictors of AUD severity at the Brown Summer Research Symposium today :)
#JNeurosci: Fernandes-Henriques, Guetta, Sclar, @elikhtik.bsky.social et al. show that L5 IL→SI/VP pathway in rats constrains defensive fear expression during active extinction learning.

finished first year on a random friday evening?
pubmed being down…
i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country
would any faculty be interested in collaborating on this for SfN 2025 in san diego? submission deadline is Jan 22nd!
i love zotero on my ipad :)
joined an incredible group of neuroscientists (my amazing friends) at the annual Hunter/NYU ENDURE Alumni Panel—grateful to be part of such an inspiring community. :)

Dinner and duckpin bowling last night with the lab! So much fun! #neuroscience #WomenInSTEM 🧠 🧪 👩🔬
Yes, I said duckpin. For the curious: https://buff.ly/416kSM2
grateful for community today :3
You got undergrads? We have summer programs! Please post, repost, and share. Applications opened early, now on the NSF ETAP portal. Neuroscience in Ann Arbor! YES, PLEASE!
Remember folks that we need to return to the old habit of reposting (retweeting) people's posts instead of liking them to allow the folks we think are cool to build their following. Let's continue to build one another's visibility as a community should.
