- Cow astonishes scientists with rare tool use
- ❗Join us to discuss: ‘Scientifically accurate and ethically responsible science communication in psychiatric genetics’ on 14th Jan ! Organised by the PGC Outreach Committee, BGA Public Science Committee @behaviorgenetic.bsky.social, and @ibangs.bsky.social Register: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regi...
- Lecturer position in Neurobiology at UMass Amherst. Come join a great group of instructors teaching in the Biology, Psych & Brain Sci, and Neuroscience majors. Review starts Jan 5, 2026. Please forward/apply! careers.umass.edu/amherst/en-u... #NeuroJobs #Neuroscience #AcademicJobs #HigherEd
- Do you work with rats? We are genetically predicting behavior, gene expression and other traits in outbred rats. We call it #RATTACA because it’s like the movie GATTACA except it’s not evil. Learn more about how you can use RATTACA at our booth #3925 at #sfn25.
- Please join us in congratulating Marissa Ehringer, the new Editor-In-Chief of the Society's Journal, Genes, Brain and Behavior. We look forward to a successful partnership. @wileybrainpsych.bsky.social @ehringermaeiii.bsky.social @ibg.colorado.edu

- I’m trilled to release the largest amount of stress profiling data from our (I think any) lab so far. We asked how the molecular response to acute stress adapts as the stressor becomes chronic. Multiomic profiling in the mouse hippocampus, led by Rebecca Waag and co-last author Pierre-Luc Germain 💪

- Our latest findings on social behavior circuits is out: how does the brain responds to social isolation? Terrific work by @dingliu.bsky.social et al. uncovering a circuit with similar neural architecture as physiological needs (hunger, thirst, sleep..). Detailed thread soon. rdcu.be/ebo63
- Thousands of protesters opposing President Trump’s agenda took to the streets on Monday across the U.S., derisively calling him a “king” on Presidents’ Day for his efforts to terminate thousands of federal workers and to fire prosecutors and independent watchdogs. nyti.ms/3CQA2LX
