A feature in Nature examines the research about aphantasia, which is the experience of people with no mental imagery, and how it could offer a window into consciousness. #Neuroskyence 🧪

Thrilled to share that our first study on the hippocampus’ role in helping behavior in mice is now published in @cp-cellreports.bsky.social! This work was driven by an amazing team in my lab, and marks an important milestone for more exciting studies to come! www.cell.com/cell-reports...

lab preprint! Interopceptive predictions are central to many brain-body interactions theories, but it's unclear if/how they affect bodily physiology. We (fearless Einav Litvak et al) show that insular cortex predictions are essential for glucose homeostasis-THREAD.. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

New paper alert!!...🤩 Led by @blogeman.bsky.social, we identify how cell type-specific hormonal responses in the hypothalamus tunes parenting behavior in males and females 🐭🧠🍼. Highlights in thread 👇 1/6 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Out today in Nature: We uncover a neural mechanism for the integration of two internal states - hunger and estrous state - and how this integration shapes pup-directed behaviors in mice. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Very excited to announce our latest paper uncovering circuit, cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying the formation and maintenance of social hierarchy, another terrific collaboration with @neurovenki.bsky.social, Vic Kapoor and Adam Nelson (not on bsky) www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

How do animals decide if they should forage for food or stay home to take care of newborn offspring? Whose needs come first? For my PhD work now out in Nature, we examined how hunger and parenting neurons interact and are reshaped postpartum in mice 🧵⬇️ www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Thrilled to announce that my proposal to further investigate the neural basis of sexual rejection has been funded by the Spanish Ministry for Science and Innovation through the Projects for Knowledge Generation call! Exciting times ahead! @ageinves.bsky.social
