Today may be October 3rd, but on Wednesdays, the @BrenhouseLab wears pink (while presenting @SfNtweets)! Stop by to hear the amazing recent work from our lab, and ask us why all of our posters had to go through a Mean Girls makeover this year!

Far from women’s health being a “niche” area -putting more effort into understanding the multifaceted area of women’s health will lead to exciting new discoveries that will benefit all, regardless of our gender.
New from @Nature: a maternal brain hormone that builds bone 🤯🦴 During #breastfeeding, bones are stripped of calcium - yet they don't break down. A hormone discovered in lactating mice explains why not - and might someday help treat osteoporosis!🤓 nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

What’s better than giving my first @SfNtweets nanosymposium talk this year? Getting to do it with my favorite lab twin @mikeyfan7 by my side along with so many incredible scientists from @Cate_cholamine @Bangasser_Lab @ampolter @DemaestriC @lauren_malave labs and more! #sfn2023

Excited to share the new preprint from the lab. We found that early life stress (ELS) disrupts the brain-wide functional connectivity of the raphe nucleus and parsed out the individual circuits to rescue ELS-induced anxiety @RamkumarRaksha @moriah_edge @DTerstege @nk_sakib

Very pleased to share our newest bundle of joy (😜) hot off the press, where the wonderful @tanvipuri_ Jennifer Richard, & I write about the need to consider factors such as pregnancy experience to gain a fulsome understanding of brain health authors.elsevier.com/a/1g%7E…

Amazing lab meeting presentation & discussion led by @SydneyKu3 on intersectionality in academia. She shared this academic wheel of privilege, which is helpful to think about. (from the UK Research Integrity Office website)

Ecstatic to see this officially in print and making the cover is an honor! @SOBP bpsgos.org/issue/S2667-1743(… Shoutout to co-first and recently minted PhD Dr. @AndreaF_Fields and @Dr_BCallaghan for artistic talent (1/2)
So happy to be able to share this! Our commentary stems from a simple idea: communication btw basic neuroscience researchers and clinicians can help fine tune experimental approaches AND increase efficacy of treatment during adolescence (1/3)

Shoutout to kickass @MaddieCritz who was awarded the ISDP poster award for her work in @kbath77 lab! 👀 She's applying for grad school this Fall. She's a STRONG candidate with 4+yrs of experience and we're already mourning our loss. Cant wait to see all the cool science she does!

Incredibly engaging panel discussion on the trauma of Katrina at #StressAllostasis2022 in NOLA. Huge thx to Dr. Drury, ⁦@JoeKanter⁩ and Dr. Head-Dunham who gave us their time and expert perspectives so we might design better studies to understand trauma’s lasting effects.

Absolutely fantastic talk by ⁦@neuronickole⁩ on her thesis work at #StressAllostasis2022. Fabulous story and incredible data. All that hard work has paid off! 🤩 Connecting cellular mechanisms with stress experience is key to understanding disease risk.
