The Margolis Lab had a great time at #ANMS2025 in Minneapolis! Postdocs Sarah, Lin & Chalystha gave abstract talks, PRC Director Kara closed the conference, and we met Keynote Speaker & 2021 Nobel Laureate David Julius and his team! #ANMS225

PRC Highlight: #MargolisLab making strides again! Congrats to Chalystha Lee who received the 2025 ISSR Travel Award at the #ISSR2025 hosted in Vienna! With mentorship from Dr. Kara Margolis & Dr. Michael Gershon lighting the way. #mentorship #ISSR #womeninresearch @chalysthalee.bsky.social

Gabapentin is widely prescribed for nerve pain, but it doesn’t work the same for everyone. We studied actual human sensory neurons from donors and found that some responded strongly - and others hardly at all. #fromlabtolife #neuroskyence #PainResearch 1/4

Just back from a great week in Vienna for #ISSR2025. I am grateful for the travel award and the opportunity to share my work. Big thanks to @karapedsgastrodoc.bsky.social and Mike Gershon for their steady support in the lab and my career. Loved connecting with 5-HT researchers from around the world!

@karapedsgastrodoc.bsky.social gave a fantastic talk on the lab's important work on SSRI use in the gastrointestinal tract @margolislabnyu.bsky.social highlighting @linyhung.bsky.social and @sarahanajjar.bsky.social 's work! @nyupainresearch.bsky.social

Excited to learn about all things Serotonin / 5HT at #ISSR2025 in Vienna!

What do you think these #painresearch results from Ullrich et al. in Science Advances may mean for finding the patterns behind ligand bias? bit.ly/4elhYYE

And just like that, AMPIRS takes its final bow! 🎬Huge cheers to our grand finale presenters and a confetti cannon 🎉 of congrats to all the Flash Talk, Poster and Oral Presentation champs! 🏆 You dazzled, you delivered, you definitely deserve it! #PRCpride #MPBpride

Congratulations @tonelloraquel.bsky.social and @mariafialho.bsky.social !! Fantastic work!

Congratulations @sarahanajjar.bsky.social & @linyhung.bsky.social !! 🙌🥳

BOOM! www.nature.com/articles/s41... I think this is a big step forward for the field. Congrats to Lauren Donovan and @vivtawfik-mdphd.bsky.social and the whole Tawfik lab team.

I am looking for a postdoc with an immunology background interested in joining a Yale neuroscience lab to study how the brain controls immunity. At Yale, we have a wonderful interdisciplinary & collaborative #neuroimmune community. Please reach out or share with anyone who might be interested!

Congrats to @karapedsgastrodoc.bsky.social on becoming part of the 2025 AGA Council section leaders!! Read more👉 gastro.org/news/meet-ou...

Definitely something important to consider wrt our studies in rodent preclinical models!

🔬 Exciting discovery! We've been curious about the function of unique IBA1+ cell staining we observed around healthy human DRG neurons in the lab (indicated by red arrows). A new paper @cellpress.bsky.social finally provides some answers. Link: www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

We have slots for 2-3 postbacs! Get in touch if you’re interested in joining the Affective Neuroscience and Pain lab & contributing to our studies of pain, emotion, and social processing in the 🧠

CONGRATULATIONS to Drs. Sarah Najjar, Lin Hung and Kara Margolis- Their review article: Serotonergic Control of Gastrointestinal Development, Motility, and Inflammation is one of the top 10 most cited articles published in 2023! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.100… 🥳🔝🔟

Our program manager extraordinaire, Ayesha Ahmad, is leaving us, so we have an exciting position open to take on her role. jobs.utdallas.edu/postings/28956 In addition to this being an exciting position, you will also get to learn from Ayesha before she departs.

Looking for an excellent & highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join our team to develop an exciting project focused on the generation of beneficial Innate Lymphoid Cells #ILC for the treatment of Inflammatory Bowel Disease #IBD using #organoids. Please share! www.kcl.ac.uk/jobs/109186-...

So excited to share what I've been up to in the past year at the 2025 Serotonin Meeting in Vienna! Can't wait for July! Thank you ISSR for this travel grant! @margolislabnyu.bsky.social

Our latest findings on social behavior circuits is out: how does the brain responds to social isolation? Terrific work by @dingliu.bsky.social et al. uncovering a circuit with similar neural architecture as physiological needs (hunger, thirst, sleep..). Detailed thread soon. rdcu.be/ebo63

We are hiring a research assistant! Come join our ongoing project investigating the PFC-striatum pathway in cognitive flexibility. Head-fixed behavior, Neuropixels, optogenetics, and viral circuit tracing etc ki.varbi.com/en/what:job/.... Please spread.

@tedpricethepainguy.bsky.social @utdpaincenter.bsky.social Great visit today from Dr. Ted Price! Thank you for wowing us with your team’s exciting data on human DRG tissue, very inspiring and insightful seminar! #painresearch #dorsalrootganglia #humanDRG #nyudental #nyuniversity #nyupainresearch

“You can’t discover what you don’t study.” @jennifergarrison.bsky.social highlights the need for more focus on women’s health at the Merkin Symposium at Caltech. Hard for anti-diversity folks to argue against addressing health issues that impact half the population…

An amazing opportunity for an early career scientist looking towards industry. Some of my former colleagues are looking to hire a Ph.D. with experience in membrane proteins (broadly speaking, so channels, receptors, transporters, etc. all considered. 🧪 #biotech www.linkedin.com/posts/magdal...

This is a paid fellowship to draw mushrooms in upstate New York this summer. Seems relevant to some of y’all’s interests. 🍄
