๐ฅณ๐พ๐บCelebrating my first *1st author paper finally being up after way too many years!! No time for a twitter thread explainer now, but soon! Big shout out to co-lead author @RFarero , PhD supervisor @PaulEMPhillips and rest of our team for guidance & help along the way!
Cocaine Seeking And Taking Are Oppositely Regulated By Dopamine biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shโฆ #biorxiv_neursci
New preprint w/ @lab_plotkin about cholinergic interneurons causing local serotonin release in striatum and how this is related to obsessive-compulsive disorder biorxiv.org/content/10.110โฆ For the story, read on 1/9
As the author of this PDF, it's been interesting seeing people guess at the rationale behind its design. However, the rationale had nothing to do with theory vs practice, and everything to do with pragmatically coping with an unaccommodated disability in academia. (1/16)
Compilers was was known to be the hardest CS class at Cornell which was hard as it is. We were handed a 8-page PDF at the start of sem for a language spec we'd be implementing by the end of sem, split into 6 parts. On part 5, the median was a 0/100 and most the class failed.
Tonight!
Usually I donโt talk about stuff like this because frankly it happens way too often. But not todayโฆ As I pulled into the same faculty parking lot that I park in all the time @msstate, a white woman was coming out of my office building. Her car was parked next to the space Iโฆ
Iโm so glad they found each other
Please reach out to us if you are interested in doing a postdoc in research related to substance use disorders! Pittsburgh is a wonderful place to train with fantastic faculty doing basic, translational and clinical research.
NIDA has recently awarded Pitt Psychiatry a T32 postdoc training grant in substance use disorder research! SMART is led by Colleen McClung, PhD & Mary Torregrossa, PhD. See more: bit.ly/3ycgYW5
Chk out our new collab paper w/ @LinTianPhD @chromism & many others. โOpioid biosensors v1.0โ. Lots of applications. Encourage people to reach out, test them in ur applications, & ask ?. Congrats to co 1st authors: @JasonCDong1 @outRaajeous nature.com/articles/s4159โฆ @NIDAnews
Our new sensor for the neuropeptide #nociceptin is now out in @NatureComms Fantastic teamwork with the @mbruchas lab and many other super collabs! Very proud of our student Xuehan for her PhD work! Check it out: rdcu.be/dLO3m ๐
โผ๏ธNew preprint: Scaling laws for political persuasion with LLMsโผ๏ธ In a large pre-registered experiment (n=25,982), we find evidence that scaling the size of language models yields sharply diminishing persuasive returns: arxiv.org/abs/2406.14508 1/n
Anyone interested in Dopamine and looking for a Postdoc with a wonderful human as a mentor๐๐ฝ๐๐ฝ๐๐ฝ
Last but not least, weโre looking for a postdoc to study neural circuits that influence dopamine neuron firing. If this could be you, please reach out!
Very excited for this paper to be out in @NeuroCellPress . We opto stimulated specific inputs to the VTA and used snRNAseq to identify which neuronal subclusters were activated by each input. A fantastic collaboration with @mouse_braind and @gstuber cell.com/neuron/abstracโฆ
Soden lab finally in da house!!!
Is now a good time to join Twitter? I'm only here for the science.

Berkeley, UCSF and UW jointly announced the creation of the Weill Neurohub to "bring together world-class researchers" and distribute a generous donor gift. Can't put my finger on what seems off about their Leadership Committee... @BiasWatchNeuro
Watch this and now add to it that heโs been convicted of 34 felonies. The GOP is totally lost as they keep defending this man. twitter.com/PettyLupone/stโฆ
I still canโt quite believe this happened. What does it say about our society?
Once upon a time there was a Tory peer called Michelle Moneโฆ A bedtime story to make your hair curl. Bravo for telling it @LedbyDonkey
From someone who has studied this field for over 2 decades, I can comfortably say that virtually everything said here is inaccurate. It is incredibly disturbing to me that someone claiming to be a scientist can talk with such authority on something they clearly know nothing about
How Marijuana Affects the Brain & Body
Yay! Three years after @raoult_didier @Pr_Chabriere_E and @IHU_Marseille filed a complaint against me for harassment and blackmail, the Marseille Procureur tells me today they could not find any grounds for criminal prosecution.
