Recently, high school students joined us at the CNE as part of the Brain Bee 2025 programme. Students got hands on experience using research techniques that we employ in our daily research Thank you to BrainSTEM Otago and the Neurological Foundation for supporting this day!

Super proud of my MSc student being selected for the MediRay symposium talk at MedSci2025 Christchurch @cneotago.bsky.social

My team showcasing our research findings at MedSci2025, Christchurch @cneotago.bsky.social @universityofotago.bsky.social

We had a great seminar last week from @prolactinguy.bsky.social who talked to us about achieving impact from fundamental biomedical research with the ongoing changes to funding in Aotearoa

Very humbled to receive the Julia Buckingham Award by @bsneuroendo.bsky.social. Grateful to BSN for all the support over my PhD and also thanks to my incredible mentors @cneotago.bsky.social! Excited for more brain health and menopause research as a postdoc with @zuloagalab.bsky.social very soon 🥳

Register for #BSNBradford2025 and watch Teodora Georgescu speak on: Establishing a model to investigate respiratory changes during pregnancy using radiotelemetry at our Selected ECR Oral Communications session. Register by 15 Aug: bsnbradford2025.oa-e...

Great article highlighting the recent research from Sharon Ladyman and Rosie Brown @cneotago.bsky.social Hypothalamic prolactin signaling protects against overheating in pregnancy: Trends in Neurosciences www.cell.com/trends/neuro...

Dr Michael Perkinson from the Rosie Brown Lab was presenting his latest research today. Michael is using the latest in fluorescent neurotransmitter sensors to understand the neural circuits which control maternal behaviour.

Great to get this paper published. Thanks to all the students, postdocs and collaborators for all their work on this. @cneotago.bsky.social Ultradian rhythms of CRHPVN neuron activity, behavior, and stress hormone secretion | PNAS www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Friday is seminar day at the CNE. Today it was fantastic to hear about the exciting research from the laboratory of CNE affiliate member Dr Olivia Harrison. Dr Harrison studies the relationship between mental health and how we perceive our body.
