1/18: Well, after 23 years as faculty at Harvard and almost 15 years of amazing collaborations, collegiality and growth at McLean Hospital, today I officially start at UC Irvine, where I will be the founding director of a new depression

neuroscience-backed hope for the future of research 🤝 mental health We're just getting started, grateful to be working with brilliant neuroscientists at UC Irvine UCI CNLM Mike Yassa

Many in biotech/private sector are boasting about their ways of funding and doing science But they are staffed with PhDs and postdocs we train in our NIH and U.S. National Science Foundation funded labs in universities With uni labs lacking funds to train, the private sector will be profoundly harmed

For decades, NIH funding has fueled breakthroughs in cancer, heart disease and more. But a new policy puts progress at risk. We’re asking Congress to oppose this abrupt change. Email your lawmakers! #SaveNIHresearch Info: bit.ly/40YZKWH

Anytime a university's federal funding is threatened somebody screams, "just use the endowment". Here's why universities can't - and shouldn't - use their endowments to bridge shortfalls in federal funding. Read my essay on Medium medium.com/@myassa_62896/… #HigherEducation

If you’re concerned about NIH’s policy regarding federal funding for universities with DEI programs It’s not time to panic just yet. Read my opinion on STAT. statnews.com/2025/05/01/nih…

Loved seeing my brain artwork being featured on YassaLab’s thank you cards to their BEACoN study participants! Thanks Mike Yassa and #Liv for making these! ☺️

Curing Alzheimer’s disease requires a radically different approach. It’s time we embrace the complexity and think about systems rather than isolated pathologies. Read my latest opinion on this at The Transmitter thetransmitter.org/alzheimers-dis…
