Congrats to the amazing neuroscience MBS students who just graduated!

#TBT to when our MS in Multidisciplinary Biomedical Science (MBS) grad students crossed the finish line last week!🎓🎉 We celebrated their incredible hard work and achievements with smiles, cheers—and of course, cake! 🍰 Congrats again to all our graduates! . . . #uab #MBS

We are proud to share that Dr. Farah Lubin and Dr. Lara Ianov were among 19 faculty honored with the 2025 Dean’s Excellence Award! uab.edu/medicine/news/…

At UAB Award ceremony with Neuroscience Honors undergrad Harshita Challa- Barry Goldwater nominee. Proud to have this future amazing physician-scientist in my lab!

I had so much fun talking with Caleb Alford from @SenTuberville 's office. We discussed how important it is that fundamental research discoveries continue with US support. #neuroadvocate #sfnHillday.

So great talking with Megan Medley from Rep. @Robert_Aderholt's office today. We discussed how important it is to maintain stability for the US research enterprise, and how recent actions by the administration have destabilized it. Don't destabilize the US! #neuroadvocate

Today’s #AlumniHighlight is on Dr. Sofia Beas! Dr. Beas earned her Ph.D. in #neuroscience in 2015, and she is currently an Assistant Professor at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (@UNeurobiology).

Nice infographic on what NIH indirects support if you are interested: aamc.org/media/81706/do…

I am not normally an alarmist, but these are not normal times. This change would cripple research infrastructure at hundreds of US institutions, and threatens to end our global superiority in scientific research. grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/n…

A simple way to improve your mood is to curate your feed. Evidence: People were randomly assigned to unfollow accounts that spewed hostility, hyperpartisan views, and low-quality information. 6 months later, they had significantly higher well-being and lower outgroup animosity.

My first, first-author paper is finally out for preprint!! Here we show that co-pathologies are likely behind the neuroinflammation and neuropathology related to neurodegeneration. More to come!🤞🏾🫶🏾 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
