Happy to share this article Trends in Molecular Medicine on the utility of, and challenges associated with, the model we use in the lab to study the biological causes of anorexia nervosa. Monash Biomedicine Discovery Institute BDI Metabolism sciencedirect.com/science/articl…


They say to “write what you know” but Felicia Reed & I broke with convention to write about what we don’t know Trends in Pharmacological Sciences. We want to understand whether potential #psychedelic actions in the gut may be relevant for therapeutic outcomes 🤨🍄👇🏼 sciencedirect.com/science/articl…



Our #Cajal course on "#Optogenetics, chemogenetics and biosensors for #neural circuit research" will begin next week on Tuesday: 🎙️Discover the #talks The CAJAL Advanced Neuroscience Training Programme Ofer Yizhar 💔 Fenno.Lab Anna Beyeler 🇺🇦


Widespread adoption of open-source tools calls for more support and training. By @LexKravitz and Mark Laubach thetransmitter.org/open-neuroscie…

Proud to have co-led this important study w/ Laura Milton and to finally bring to fruition the pioneering vision of Claire Foldi in molecularpsychiatry . It has been an honour to work with #psilocybin 🍄 in Australia Monash Biomedicine Discovery Institute nature.com/articles/s4138…

#Psilocybin #psychedelics appears to reverse the cognitive rigidity of #AnorexiaNervosa. Monash Biomedicine Discovery Institute researchers Drs Claire Foldi & Kyna Conn found that psilocybin enhances body weight maintenance in female rats & facilitates cognitive flexibility. Read bit.ly/3UQFmoH


Excited to host Dr Nick Everett next week from Brain & Mind Centre for a seminar that I'm sure will be of cross-cutting relevance to both basic scientists with a penchant for drug discovery and #ECRs with an uncertain future in academia Monash Biomedicine Discovery Institute - come join us at Clayton if you can!


Calling all #melbourne area fiber photometry users 📢 We are hosting an #RWD workshop at Monash Biomedicine Discovery Institute week after next with demos and discussion… notably with gifts and desserts that will “100% hit your point” 🍩 Zane Andrews 👇🏼


We are recruiting!! Melbourne (preferably close to Clayton) people register your interest by taking the survey #psilocybin #food #reward Monash Biomedicine Discovery Institute


2024 #FoldiLab high school yearbook just dropped ☠️ Monash Biomedicine Discovery Institute & I finally updated our website monash.edu/discovery-inst… 😁😁



New preprint alert! 🚀 Huge thanks to my supervisor Claire Foldi for spreading the word—if you love behavioural neuroscience and corticostriatal circuits, this one’s for you! Check it out!
