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…

Was a pleasure working with ⁦Kyna Conn⁩ on this proposal in ⁦@IntJEatDisord⁩ to better understand and treat #compulsive exercise in #anorexia nervosa. Thanks to ⁦⁦Catherine Huang⁩ & @sashadmo⁩ for their valuable input👇🏼 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ea…

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…

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!
