New paper describing the generation of a dual recombinase ZnT3 mouse and its use to reveal a novel synaptic zinc-mediated thalamocortical pathway. Thank you my friend Thanos Tzounopoulos and Manoj Kumar for the wonderful collaboration! With Oscar Solis @eventrig @falloncurryy

If you cannot be corrected without being offended, then you’ll never truly grow in life. 🧠

Paper preview: How does mouse auditory cortex recover after noise trauma? In vitro, in vivo, and computational studies reveal cell type-specific plasticity and division of labor among interneuronal types. Manoj Kumar Brent Doiron Gregory Handy. Soon in Nature Communications.

Delighted and honored to publish my first-ever corresponding author research article Nature Communications. Could not be possible without the support from my amazing mentor Thanos Tzounopoulos, Great Collaborators Gregory Handy, Brent Doiron, and Super co-authors. nature.com/articles/s4146…
