What was remarkable was that varicosities remain quiescent if they are not juxtaposed against dopamine receptor expressing processes.

We show that dopaminergic varicosities are very selective in how they release dopamine. They synapse onto processes that express dopamine receptors to release dopamine.

The released dopamine is understood to signal diffusively, in a rather imprecise and inefficient process that is often referred to as volume transmission. This study basically calls that model into question.

This simple observation is inconsistent with how we are taught to think of neuromodulatory release sites like that of dopamine. Our current understanding holds that release occurs stochastically from varicosities that do not form synapses.

We recently posted a preprint from my lab, summarizing work over the past couple of years where we show that the neuromodulator dopamine is released from varicosities that synapse onto the processes of target neurons.

There it is. The announcement we were all waiting for. Congratulations!.
I am elated to announce that the Ahmed Lab will open @UUtah Sept 1!. If you are excited to work at the intersection of neuroscience and chemical biology to study neuropeptide modulation of behavior and physiology, please get in touch!. 1/n.

Kai hitting top form just at the right time in the season. The stars are aligning.

Thanks for the shoutout Gozde, and the awesome collaboration. This evolved from a review article into what I am sure could be a mini-book: 50 figures, 1000+ references, all you need to know about nanotubes, carbon dots, GOs/GNRs, nano hoops and more….
I'm so proud of my students @jesusgaleana18 & @eugene89128 for putting together this amazing resource on carbon nanomaterials and their biological applications in collaboration with @BeyeneAbraham lab! Give it a read, we cover everything from animals to plants to microbes 🐭🌾🦠.
