Identifying the neural basis of innate social behaviors using molecular and genetic tools @Harvard @HHMINEWS and at DulacLab at mstdn dot science
Cambridge, MA
Joined September 2017
I am thrilled to share new work from the lab led by @harris_kaplan investigating the emergence of hypothalamic cell types involved in social behavior and homeostatic control. 1/9 Sensory Input, Sex, and Function Shape Hypothalamic Cell Type Development

Mammalian behavior and physiology undergo dramatic changes in early life. Young animals rely on conspecifics to meet their homeostatic needs, until weaning and puberty initiate nutritional independ...

Beyond excited to share my big @StJude news! Weโre going to build an amazing hub for imaging technology development and deployment - driven by St Judeโs mission to transform the way the world understands and treats pediatric catastrophic diseases. Imaging innovators come join us!
St. Jude welcomes @HillmanLab as the founding chair of the new Department of Imaging Sciences. Her team will develop innovative tools to accelerate discovery and improve patient care. https://t.co/mb9o7SSqPs

@Andrew_C_Payne Potentially also amazing: if you accelerate a sub goal to map the lower ๐ง (smaller volume but same cell type diversity per Allen atlas), I predict you can start moving needle on #chronicillness over next 4 years. As we know from @DulacLab & others, illness rears its ugly head in

@oliverai_music @AdamMarblestone Thereโs a great paper from @dulaclab that finds that lonely mice are comforted by the soft touch of a conspecific. But the brain heuristic for that seems to be really just โsoft touchโ. Squeezing through a cloth-lined tunnel triggers the same system! :)
