COUNTING DOWN🎨🧠ONE WEEK AWAY! 🌧️or 🌞, on Tuesday, June 9th, the #FriedmanBrainInstitute ’s #ArtoftheBrain will be on the #MuseumMile! JOIN US, from 6pm - 9pm at 1190 5th Avenue (Bet. 98 & 101 St), as #NYC closes down 5th Ave to host its annual mile-long block party celebrating #ART.🎉

How #Pregnancy & the #Postpartum period trigger lasting changes in the #MaternalBrain remains unclear. Here, @chanjenerational.bsky.social, @themazelab.bsky.social, et al. investigated persistent effects of reproductive experience in the maternal brain. @nature.com 👉 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Thrilled to share my main postdoctoral work out @nature.com ! This project tackles a fundamental question: how do pregnancy and postpartum experiences promote lifelong changes to the brain? www.nature.com/articles/s41...

How does pregnancy and postpartum reshape the brain? 🧠 🧪Jennifer O’Chan et al. at Research at Sinai Health identified dopamine as a key driver of persistent maternal brain remodeling and long-term behavioral adaptation in mice, per Nature study: https://ow.ly/rTg450Z5c6q #SciSky #MedSky

Landmark Study by Brian Russ, Helen Mayberg, Peter Rudebeck, et al. the Icahn Mount Sinai uncovers first direct evidence that #DeepBrainStimulation can remodel white matter pathways in the brain & alter communication across large-scale neural networks. PRESS RELEASE 👉 mountsinai.org/about/newsro...

Abstract submission for #SfN26 is now open! Share your findings, spark new conversations, and connect with researchers who care about the same questions you do. Avoid the last-minute rush. Submit your abstract today! 🔗 vist.ly/55m24
