🧠 A new study led by our PI Marta Llinás published in Nature Communications shows that a specific #astrocyte ensemble drives memory deficits caused by adolescent #cannabis use in mice. 🔬 Reducing their overactivation prevents cognitive impairments. More info🔗https://shorturl.at/Mxih0

Had a blast working on the revision for this one. It was a hectic summer with @crismonteagudo.bsky.social in the lab giving THC injections almost every single day (for research purposes) and struggling with time zones for lab meetings, but all the effort paid off. Congrats on the hard work! 🎉

The @navarrete-llinas.bsky.social lab is kicking off 2026 with even more new science! Our latest paper, led by the amazing @crismonteagudo.bsky.social, is out now in @natcomms.nature.com. 🧠 Astrocytes mediate cognitive impairments induced by THC 🌿 exposure during adolescence. 👇🏼

🎉 Great news! Our paper is now published in @naturecomm We identify a specific astrocyte ensemble that mediates THC-induced cognitive impairments during adolescence Huge thanks to our collaborators @marsicanolab @khakhlab @grandeslab 🔗 rdcu.be/eY0Or @jsromero.bsky.social @crismonteagudo.bsky.social

Impressive work by our very own @crismonteagudo.bsky.social on #astrocytes in THC-related impairments. 🧪🧠✨ Go show the preprint some love 👇🏼

Thrilled to share the core of my work from this incredible journey—also known as my PhD! 👩🏼‍🔬🧪 Thanks to my supervisor @navarrete-llinas.bsky.social and all the authors that make it possible ✨. #astrocyte

🧠Descubren que el cerebro crea mapas más sofisticados de lo que se creía para orientarnos y memorizar  Este hallazgo del #CSIC proporciona una nueva perspectiva sobre el sistema de navegación del cerebro y sobre cómo se procesa la información espacial 👉http://tiny.cc/9zcb001

Kicking off our Bluesky profile celebrating our newest publication in @natureneuro.bsky.social! Using our new tool AstroLight we demonstrate that a specific group of #astrocytes —an astrocyte ensemble— in the nucleus accumbens regulates cue-motivated behavior. Check it out!✨https://rdcu.be/d8qJi

Let see what is new around here! Now on Bluesky, because procrastination is best done on multiple platforms.
