Congratulations Marรญa Nguyแป n! Honored to be your advisor and put in some work ๐ช๐พ - letโs goooo!


Excited to announce that the Victor Lab is coming to NYC this Fall at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai Friedman Brain Institute! My lab will be housed at a new state-of-the art biotech hub on Manhattan's West Side! Check out the lab space and learn more from our website: victor-lab.com






Chatting w/ my new friends Neil deGrasse Tyson Gary O'Reilly Chuck Nice about my bioethics, their ancestral memories & #MarlinLabโs discoveries in adaptive inheritance. Very Casual. Mindful. Very epigenetic. ๐คญ #StarTalk #NeilDeGrasseTyson #VeryDemure youtu.be/KKaukv_JLX0?siโฆ


Truly honored and humbled to be recognized among Cell Press 50 Scientists the inspire! Grateful for the recognition by the editors and opportunity to share my thoughts on the future of structural biology and academia!! ๐๐พ๐ซถ๐พ#CP50


๐ Just dropped in eNeuro! Infant stress has long lasting effects on amygdala microglia! Stressed microglia are embedded in the paralaminar nucleus , thus positioned to interact w immature neurons in process of growing during childhood! Work of Dennisha King Del Monte Institute for Neuroscience

My very first, first author paper is finally published ๐ฅณ. We found that early life stress alters the normal developmental trajectory of microglial morphology in the amygdala, inducing a persistent hyper-ratified phenotype. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39753372/ Del Monte Institute for Neuroscience


The #SynpaticPruningDebate rages on with an impressive level of LIVE IMAGING support from this work (albeit in co-culture). An unique documentation of microglial surveillance in culture (the best to date?!) What a beautiful study Ryuta Koyama!!!!! ๐คฏ๐คฉ๐๐พnature.com/articles/s4146โฆ
