On the Huberman Lab podcast out now Dr Diego Bohorquez The Bohórquez Lab of Duke University explained how when we eat sugary foods, a gut-to-brain (hormone independent) pathway signals our brain to make us crave and eat more sugar… and it all happens below our conscious awareness.

The Textbooks Were Wrong About How Your Tongue Works. Taste perception is a remarkably complex process. Check out the NYT article with Diego Bohorquez PhD The Bohórquez Lab on taste receptors from the latest gut-brain research #neuropods #gutbrain #trustyourgut duke.is/5/2h8b


On the Huberman Lab podcast episode out now, Dr Diego Bohorquez of Duke University explains how neurons in your gut sense specific nutrients (or lack thereof) in foods you eat & signals circuits in your brain to drive food cravings & aversions. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/hub…


So many new electrophysiologists!! Our group photo from the first section, Membrane Excitability and Channels (MECS). Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) AranedaLab M. Belen Pardi melanie maya kaelberer Eric Senning


Nobody knows Nodose like these folks... Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) The amazing Maya Kalberer and Emily Alway with their group. melanie maya kaelberer


Our own melanie maya kaelberer and Emily Jean at Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL), in case anyone was wondering why they’ve been missing from the The Bohórquez Lab lab.

Laura Rupprecht just gave us a great lecture on neuropod cells. FYI, she is hiring at all levels for 2025. If interested, be sure to contact her Laura Rupprecht #ssib2024


So happy to share our new work that is now out @sciencemagazine: We show how neurons in the mouse zona incerta (ZI) modulate infant social behaviors and learning. This work was led by the AMAZING graduate student Yuexuan Li Yuexuan Li 李玥璇. 🎉science.org/doi/epdf/10.11… #ScienceResearch

The application for summer 2025 Grass Fellowships is now live at grassfoundation.org/fellowship-ove…! Applications are due November 15. Please share with promising early-career neuroscientists. The Fellowship provides 14 weeks of sponsored research support at Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) in Woods Hole, MA.


Super cool work from Laura Rupprecht #GTSRC24: incredible tools allow her to see sucrose send signals to the brain via intestinal neuropods to vagal nerve to make them happy (and keep eating sugar) and find the genes involved in part by shining lights inside their guts. Wild.

#aging #bioelectricity Ever wonder what the bioelectric patterns of mortal vs. immortal animals look like? Or how resting potential gradients look in Hydra? Here's a preprint Dr. Stefania Kapsetaki osf.io/preprints/osf/…



🍍We're excited to share that Gastronauts will showcase their knowledge, advancements & excitement about the GI tract @ the Kids Food Fest🍎Marbles Kids Museum May 3 & 4. 🍐Come check out their booth displaying the journey of food within the body! 🧑🍳marbleskidsmuseum.org/kids-food-fest
