@Luna3150 @physiologyuoft used optophysiology to show that #CCK interneurons inhibit ventral hippocampus neurons tagged with #retrobead labelling from the nucleus accumbens. Great working with @jckimlab again!

We braved the hippocampus because of a great collaboration 🙂 Elegant work by Robin Nguyen from @jckimlab and Sanghavy Sivakumaran aka @Luna3150 from @LambeLab

Congratulations, Dr. Venkatesan (@Sridevi292) !!!
@physiologyuoft @uoftmedicine
Excited to share a cool #nicotinic discovery by the new Dr @sridevi292 out today in @iScience_CP Fun collaboration with @neuronjoy Eric Turner @cth1997 Kevin Liu @physiologyuoft

Need to recover lost #nicotinic currents? It is possible even in the older brain with #xanomeline & #NS9283. Paper now @npp_journal Kudos to stellar graduate students @saigepower @sridevi292 @physiologyuoft Here's the link: rdcu.be/c3ij5
Congratulations @Sridevi292 on the rock-star Ph.D. defence yesterday! Your research identified the fast and protective actions of #Chrna5 at prefrontal #nicotinic synapses and discovered Chrna5+ #acetylcholine super-responders with #subplate identity.
What happens when Grin1 deficiency leaves neurons with too few NMDA receptors (NMDARs)?
Turns out there is a selective loss of extrasynaptic NMDARs compromising dendritic plateaus.
Adult genetic intervention can bring them back!
