Show PostIn case you missed the preprint the published version of our paper describing the cellular, molecular, and behavioral consequences of hyperphosphorylated tau in the mouse locus coeruleus is out! www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Show PostAttention all central amygdala aficionados and habit learning lovers: Sharing the latest work from my time at Dartmouth where we examined CeA activity during habit formation, now out at JNeuro www.jneurosci.org/content/earl...
