NCL lab retreat 2024! This year with an amazing view, great discussions and delicious lunch prepared by Alex!
Great first ever poster presentation from our student Giuliana at the 2023 Columbia Undergraduate Symposium! Amazing job @Giuliana081702!
NCL lab retreat 😎
We trained to give brief talks about our projects, discussed science, ate delicious BBQ and hiked!

@DrNancyPadilla & I had a lot of fun writing about this cool new paper doi.org/10.1016/j.cell.2022.… which reports a novel, non-violent, subordination method that potently (only 4 days!) produces long-lasting changes in social rank, reward seeking, & coping style 1/3

The discovery of a neuronal loop activated when mice unexpectedly become less dominant could provide insights into a range of stress- and depression-related behaviours, says @DrNancyPadilla & @dr_alexharris go.nature.com/3ITyIa2

See our new systematic review and meta-analysis paper: Early-life adversity affects only some reward processes and what matters most is its length! @circuits_lab @Rene_Hen @BalsamPeter sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Anyone looking for a faster solution for visualizing a large (e.g., 512x512x50000+ frame) tiff stack than ImageJ? I wrote a solution in Matlab (TiffViewer), which currently has limited functionality. github.com/jmstujenske/Matla…
I welcome contributors to expand functionality.
❗️New review out from our team!!
Check it out if you are interested to know how stress affects different circuits within brain reward system and how that translates to changes in motivated behavior!

Today we had a lab picnic and said goodbye to Alan who is starting his lab soon! Congratulations and good luck @APNeuro!!!
Congrats to @USkupio on the publication of a review of the role of endocannabinoid signaling in glia from her work in the @MarsicanoLab doi.org/10.1002/glia.24246
Here’s to many more!
⚠️New paper alert⚠️Laura Benoit and colleagues show that inhibiting thalamic activity during adolescence leads to cognitive impairment and changes in prefrontal cortex function in adulthood.
Great collaboration with @CKellendonk and Sarah Canetta!

Come join us this fall for a 4-day short course on machine learning in animal behavior hosted at Jax. Organized by Vivek Kumar, Ann Kennedy, Gordon Berman, and myself and featuring an all-star caste of lecturers at the cutting-edge of this science.
Interested in using machine learning for animal behavior research? Check out this article by @Spectrum, highlighting @jacksonlab's new course on automated behavioral quantification. Organizers: @gordonberman, @Antihebbiann, @Vivekdna & @IshmailSaboor. spectrumnews.org/news/six-st…
