A study lifts the veil on the neural processes which help monogamous prairie voles cope with heartbreak. elifesciences.org/digests/80517/…

It’s officially out! Software and advice to streamline fiber photometry and it’s analysis complete with detailed protocol. Congrats to lead authpr Kathleen Z Murphy and thanks to advice from Neurophotometrics LLC

This is so sad, she just had a baby.

Wanted to retweet and include all my incredible co-panelists for Molecules and Memories : The Complex Underpinnings of Social Behavior!! Chair : WalshLab Co-Chair : Xiaoting Wu Lab Steve Ramirez Zoe Donaldson

A few weeks ago I was asked to write an obituary for my PhD mentor, Larry Young. He was the torchbearer for oxytocin research, a giant in our field. He had a gift for connecting people. His loss has been devastating for many of us. rdcu.be/dE0vD

Excited to share the first pre-print of my post-doc with Zoe Donaldson. At the end of my PhD, I became interested in how social behaviors evolve during aging, particularly in late stages of life. But mice/rats do not display many of the complex social behaviors as observed in humans.

My first experiments as a post-doc are finally published in Hormones and Behavior Journal! Aged voles have a lot of love to give, demonstrating accelerated and enhanced pair bonding which is paralleled by an increase in oxytocin cell counts of the PVN. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
