a preprint from my undergraduate work with Dr. Nesha Burghardt is now out now! Check it out on bioRxiv: lnkd.in/enX5547

Extremely grateful for the opportunity to attend the Society for Neuroscience meeting in San Diego last week. I had the chance to serve on an amazing panel at this year’s ENDURE meeting alongside incredible neuroscientists, and I also presented a poster on our MDMA-assisted therapy work.

going to @sfn.org and want to learn about an active placebo for mdma-assisted therapy RCTs? 🧪 stop by our poster on Tuesday :) #neuroskyence #SfN25

wait so i can’t apply for the nsf anymore? 🧍🏽

And that's a wrap! I had a ton of fun at the inaugural New England Addiction Neuroscience Research Conference Friday and am looking forward to seeing everyone next year, if not sooner! newenglandaddictionconsortium.wordpress.com/annual-confe...

presented my first data blitz on our MDMA-assisted therapy work at the first new england addiction neuroscience (NEAN) research conference, hosted at brown. thanks to the organizers for the opportunity! @karlakaun.bsky.social

super proud of my undergrad, Leeah Han, for presenting her project on metabolic hormones as predictors of AUD severity at the Brown Summer Research Symposium today :)

#JNeurosci: Fernandes-Henriques, Guetta, Sclar, @elikhtik.bsky.social‬ et al. show that L5 IL→SI/VP pathway in rats constrains defensive fear expression during active extinction learning. vist.ly/3n89wem

finished first year on a random friday evening?

pubmed being down…

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

would any faculty be interested in collaborating on this for SfN 2025 in san diego? submission deadline is Jan 22nd!

joined an incredible group of neuroscientists (my amazing friends) at the annual Hunter/NYU ENDURE Alumni Panel—grateful to be part of such an inspiring community. :)

We are now up to 78 accounts on our Black In Neuro starter pack! Be sure to check back and make sure you have everyone added 🤗 Please let us know if we missed you! #BlackInSTEM #Neuroskyence #Psychology #AcademicSky 🧪 go.bsky.app/F8PpdPe

proud recipient here :)

the highlight from mine LOLLLL

happy spotify wrapped day to those who celebrate

Dinner and duckpin bowling last night with the lab! So much fun! #neuroscience #WomenInSTEM 🧠 🧪 👩‍🔬 Yes, I said duckpin. For the curious: https://buff.ly/416kSM2

grateful for community today :3

You got undergrads? We have summer programs! Please post, repost, and share. Applications opened early, now on the NSF ETAP portal. Neuroscience in Ann Arbor! YES, PLEASE!

Remember folks that we need to return to the old habit of reposting (retweeting) people's posts instead of liking them to allow the folks we think are cool to build their following. Let's continue to build one another's visibility as a community should.

There’s something incredibly healing about hugs from other Black women 🥰 Had the best hugs and encouraging words from some of my favorite #BlackWomenPhDs ❤️ #ABRCMS2024 #BlackInNeuro ✨

Is there a neuro starter pack? I feel so old cuz when I first heard "starter pack" I squinted my eyes and thought...tf is that? But if someone made a Neuro starter pack I'd love to see it. Maybe I'm already a part of one! Who knows!!! *Maniacal laughter*
