1/ Six years in the making! Our preprint on SORDINO fMRI is out. We're sharing the raw data and sequence to facilitate brain-wide mapping in awake, behaving rodents. If this could be useful to your colleagues and friends, please help spread the word! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Special thanks to the search committee members for helping us identify this years awardee!: @ruimcosta, @alfairhall, Huda Zoghbi, @AdamHantman, @PhilpotLab, @MarkZylka.
Researchers in @UNC_CBP now know how a small protein influences the lymphatic system in the brain and contributes to migraine pain. 🧠⚡ These findings are a big step for researchers who are hoping to trace the physiological roots of the condition. news.unchealthcare.org/2024/07/migrai…
The Neuroscience Center was honored to host Dr. David Ginty, who accepted the 23rd Perl-UNC Neuroscience Prize on Thursday, March 6. Dr. Ginty’s groundbreaking work on touch and vibration was truly captivating, and we are incredibly grateful for this wonderful community!
Join us THIS THURSDAY (2/6) for Dr. Mark Andermann's Neuroscience Seminar Series talk. Seminar will be in room 1131 Bioinformatics at 12:30PM. Details in the listserv!
Booked a 2 King room for 4 people with @priceline and was given a 1 king room for 2 people. Had to pay hotel extra $250. Priceline has become a sham. Don't use them.
🎉 A project by @CaronLabUNC, @MarkZylka, @zenbrainest, and @PhilpotLab has been selected by @ARPA_H to receive the #SprintForWomensHealth award and will receive $3M in funding for early-stage research on #migraine treatment! @UNC_SOM Read announcement: med.unc.edu/cellbiophysio/…
