I'm no longer using this platform, but I'm easy enough to find elsewhere.
The Center for GWAS in outbred rats (ratgenes.org) has a booth at #SfN22 (#3229). We are offering outbred rats with *genetically predicted* behavioral and physiological phenotypes. It's like selected lines, but we can predict for dozens of traits. What traits? Read on.

@UCSanDiego has received a five-year, $8 Million grant for a NIDA P30 Center to investigate the genetics, genomics, and epigenetics behind substance use disorders. #AwardAnnouncement #Grant @UCSDMedSchool today.ucsd.edu/story/uc-san-d…
New opening for an Assistant Professor position in Human Genetics/Genomics at Cornell! academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/28554
We are thrilled to announce two open rank faculty searches @UofUGenetics: a broad search for all areas of genetics research (utah.peopleadmin.com/postings/170913) & one focused on computational genomics faculty (utah.peopleadmin.com/postings/170449). This launches a multi-year recruiting initiative! (1/4)
Beautiful morning walking along Lake Michigan in Chicago at #SfN24
Come for the swag, stay for the awesome science and the potential to expand the possibilities of your rat behavioural neuroscience research program!
🐀 Please RT 🐀 RATTACA is back at #SfN24 — come see us tomorrow at Booth #1828. RATTACA uses polygenic risk scores to predict behavioral traits in outbred rats. Now you can study genetic predisposition to substance abuse in drug naive rats! Details at ratgenes.org/rattaca
RATTACA’s updated poster now includes excellent rodent puns like “Eatenby A Hawk and Jude Paw” 👌stop by for a fun sticker! #SfNswag #SfN24

Are you at #SfN and interested in using rats for Neuroscience research? We are using polygenic prediction to predict @NIDAnews and @NIAAAnews relevant behavioral traits in outbred rats. And we’ve got RATTACA stickers for your computer! Booth 1828 RATGENES.ORG/RATTACA
📢 Exciting day at the #CTC_RG2024 meeting! 🧬 Join us at the Medical College of Wisconsin for groundbreaking discussions on complex traits and rat genomics. Don't miss out on the latest research and networking opportunities! 🌟 #Genomics #Research #CTC2024
New work led by Hayley Thorpe in collaboration with @AbePalmer and Sandra Sanchez-Roige: Genome-wide association study of delay discounting in 134,935 individuals identifies novel loci and transdiagnostic associations across mental and physical health medrxiv.org/content/10.110…
We are hiring 3+ Neuroscience faculty at CU Boulder! Seeking applicants with outstanding research programs in cell/molecular neuroscience, behavioral neuroscience, and integrative physiology. #academicjobs @FuturePI_Slack @NeuroRumblr jobs.colorado.edu/jobs/JobDetail…
Speaking of which, @VCARScience is hiring! If you work on addiction (or even basic science that is relevant to addiction) and want to do that in an amazing environment you should apply: nature.com/naturecareers/…
Thanks @pauljohnmeyer, it was great to see you too. So sorry I had COVID 🦠 and couldn’t fully participate in the actual meeting, but pizza on the beach was a high point.
Meanwhile in Chicago.
Delighted that @CIRMnews has funded our center @UCSDHealth. Center is focused on integrative DATA SCIENCE combining genetics, neuroscience & clinical psychiatry (CRISPR, 3D organoid models of genes and neurocog and neuroimaging data on patients) cirm.ca.gov/about-cirm/new…
