Associate Research Scientist at @yale. Sestan Lab. Interested in Amygdala development and connectivity. Views are my own.
Thrilled to share our latest paper from Sestan lab on the development of the claustro-amygdala complex is published in Nature nature.com/articles/s4158…. A big thank you to all our collaborators and mentors. @MarinaP63 @rkovner88 @kartikpattabir1 @DavidAndrijevic
Frozen in time: T-minus one day and counting until the Aspen Movement Course where we will unraveling the mysteries of catatonia. In the clinic and hospital settings, a haunting and underrecognized syndrome is catatonia. Patients appear frozen. Two of its most curious features…
⚡️🧠A nociceptive amygdala-striatal pathway modulating affective-motivational pain Now published on the cover of @ScienceAdvances !!! Improved with projection-specific, pain-active intersectional chemogenetic pain behavior Check it out 👇 science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
⚡️🧠Thrilled to share our new preprint on pain-related valence cell-types + circuits — A nociceptive amygdala-striatal pathway for chronic pain aversion Check out the stellar work of Jessica Wojick, in a co-senior collab with @KorbLab biorxiv.org/content/10.110… THREAD 1/13
🚨 New preprint on bioRxiv! #singlecell #multiomics, #spatialtranscriptomics, #lineagetracing reveal 2 glutamatergic lineages arising from distinct progenitors; Sp9 drives visual #thalamus fate. By @lpuche_1 et al. @GuilleLBendito @JPLopezAtalaya @NeuroAlc biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
"#HansZimmer & #ARRahman have given one of the most powerful soundtracks of their career for #Ramayana. They have composed entirely original soundscapes depicting ancient India like the Ravana's Theme, Lord Ram's Theme, Love of Maa Sita, Hanuman ji's Theme" ❤️🔥 - Namit Malhotra

The fireworks in your mind. 🧠✨ This sparkling video shows the neurotransmitter glutamate being released into synapses, made possible by an indicator developed by @abhi_aggarwal1, @PodgorskiLab, and team. #HappyNewYear #NYE
Another plasmid I am excited about offering is this fully open source Taq polymerase expression circuit. Inducible via lactose or IPTG. Ampicillin selected. Born free. You can make your own polymerase and purification is as easy as boiling water and centrifuging. Coming soon!
Thrilled to present MIND! A model for how the sensorimotor–association axis of the neocortex develops. Huge thanks to the incredible multidisciplinary team who made this happen. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
📢 Don't miss our recent review on the "Neurobiology of resilience to early life stress", published in @npp_journal! Great collaboration along with Alessandro Bortolami, Cathe Peña, and @EricJNestler. 👇👇 nature.com/articles/s4138…
DeepMind just dropped a 106-page paper unveiling AlphaGenome. This single model could completely redefine how we discover disease-causing mutations and drug targets. This is massive. 🧵

Civil Engg is the last preferred branch among students. I hope this kind of news and people like Prof. Latha inspire students to opt for it. CE is at the cutting edge of infrastructure development and technology adoption. I hope industry also increases salaries for our graduates.
How this is not a national issue is beyond me. What happened to women being Devis & being worshipped? Wombs of 843 poor women removed without their consent and no one fucking cares?
🚨Paper alert! 📣 We found abnormal feeding-related neural responses in satiety-promoting, MC4R-expressing neurons in the mouse paraventricular hypothalamus (PVHM-C4R) following diet-induced obesity. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #obesity #feedingbehaviour #obesityresearch
We're thrilled to introduce PromoterAI — a tool for accurately identifying promoter variants that impact gene expression. 🧵 (1/)
Excited to showcase as a co-first author our latest work "Adaptive Evolution of Gene Regulatory Networks in Mammalian Neocortical Neurons" biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
In 2001, the University Grants Commission of India decided to introduce astrology as a science course in India. Back then, Indian scientists still used to protest this sort of thing and JV Narlikar was one of most vocal. Perhaps this event motivated JVN and his friends to run…
