Associate Professor of Neurobiology @ University of Southern California. Molecular basis of synaptic plasticity and brain-related disorders.
Joined April 2013
#JNeurosci: Pushkin, Kay, and @beherring @USC identify protein 4.1N as a critical regulator of glutamatergic synapse structure and function in the rat dentate gyrus and showed that perforant pathway synapses are governed by a unique molecular program. https://t.co/dvMeNeheIk

Latest from the lab now out in #JNeurosci @SfNJournals. Protein 4.1N plays a cell type-specific role in hippocampal synaptic regulation. Immensely proud of our graduate student Anna Pushkin for carrying out this very impressive study. https://t.co/6IZ8t4hgGj

For years I've been told that the second #R01 is the toughest to get. Just received the NOA for R01 #2!! Huge thanks again to @NINDSfunding for their continued support and to my incredible lab members. Can't wait to see where this new direction takes us. #schizophrenia

Very grateful for this piece on our recent @NatureComms paper from @BBRFoundation!
New research suggests how a defective protein called SAP97 may be implicated in a mechanism that can greatly increases the risk of #schizophrenia and may help explain how certain schizophrenia symptoms are caused. https://t.co/14x1GSyMZ6

My lab looking for RAs/postdocs/scientists to help us engineer molecular technology for applications in human disease. We try to solve big problems and have fun doing it. Here's the lab last week on a trip to Hawaii. https://t.co/fRvGpatkGK Please share and spread the word.

Latest from the lab now out in @NatureComms. Here we find that schizophrenia-associated mutations in SAP97 dramatically alter glutamatergic neurotransmission in the dentate gyrus. Big congrats to Yuni Kay and the rest of the team.

#JNeurosci: Tian, @beherring et al. show two proteins implicated in Autism Specturm Disorder/Intellectual Disability, Trio & Neuroligin 1, interact to promote glutamatergic synaptogenesis. When disrupted, this pathway may contribute to ASD/ID development. https://t.co/njAgOw52lN
