“Based on astrocytic activity alone, you can tell whether a mouse is in its comfort zone,” a new study suggests. By Holly Barker www.thetransmitter.org/spectrum/ast...

Incredibly proud of this paper led by @ossamaghenissa.bsky.social and @mathiasgua.bsky.social titled Basolateral 'Amygdala Astrocytes Encode Anxiety States'. www.cell.com/neuron/fullt... 🧵 below

First ride of the post-doc!! Change is always hard but these views defo help! 😍

🚨Great science in a stunning location!🚨 (Can confirm both are true)

Delighted to share our first preprint of the year! A project that we're all really proud of in the lab led by @ossamaghenissa.bsky.social with @mathiasgua.bsky.social in which we set out to test the role of basolateral amygdala astrocytes in anxiety behaviour. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Thanks Bruno Geoffroy @crchum.bsky.social for the nice write up on our recent publication with @lewisholt.bsky.social nouvelles.umontreal.ca/en/article/2...

Super psyched to help close out the #AstrocyteCafe on thursday!

Absolutely thrilled to share the first half of my PhD work! Super proud to see it finally out! www.nature.com/articles/s41... Thread below for a quick (10 point) recap of what we found! 🧵🧪🧠

Final leg of the Tour de France done with an excellent @gliameeting.bsky.social ! Amazing science in a great city, (despite some smoke!) and a nice travel award for @lewisholt.bsky.social 🥳 Going to make sure we come back to this meeting again next time! #glia2025

Was great to present at @canglia.bsky.social today! Cool to see all the glial research happening across Canada!

Excited to share that the astrocyte-centered half of my thesis work is now out @science.org ! With @mishaahrens.bsky.social and @marcduque.bsky.social science.org/doi/10.1126/... 1/8

Thought this would be a nice way to enter the bsky community👇Delighted for Katie (now in Chris Dulla's lab at Tufts). Thank you to our collaborators, to the reviewers and to Cagla Eroglu for the highlight! www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Super cool that these are finally out!! Check out some of the protocols we've been using to investigate the role of astrocytes in stress!

Multinucleated astrocytes always look so cool! #FluorescenceFriday

Diversifying my portfolio with some Iba-1 staining. #fluorescentfriday

Version of Record of our work at @elife.bsky.social has been published! Super proud of this one after all the hard work of the lab seeing it to the end. Make sure to click through figure supplements as there is so much good stuff in there - sex differences, etc. elifesciences.org/articles/99988

technical question. Can anyone recommend a good commercially available SOX9 antibody for fixed tissue IHC? #astrosky #astrocytes

What a year! #DLC3🔥 is up tested by many of you (👀 watch out for a paper in 2025), we hit 750K downloads, and have over 120 contributors to the code! @deeplabcut.bsky.social ❄️⛷just dropped: new human pose models & high perf. models!

Delighted to share an update to our preprint, reviewed at @elife.bsky.social, and now sent back for re-review. Colossal work by the team and driven home by @mathiasgua.bsky.social Quick 🧵 of what's new - www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Our latest review-with @bonniee-leee.bsky.social where we pour our ❤️🧠 & soul to outline our position on why we are so passionate about harnessing the power of sex differences & within sex diff to propel precision medicine forward let us know if we convince you www.nature.com/articles/s41...

There are lots of us missing, but so many joining so quickly Please do share, and comment below to be added go.bsky.app/5f2V6L6 (microglia starter pack also here by @mancusorenzo.bsky.social - bsky.app/starter-pack...)

Not sure I have any good pictures in the back pocket to beat the calcium imaging from @mathiasgua.bsky.social Instead for my first post on Bluesky I want to share the CANglia webinar: trainee series!
