- Reposted by hjerling-leffler🥁🎇✨ ... first up is KIRA HÖFFLER @kirahoeffler.bsky.social from the #UniversityofBergen in Norway and #McLeanHospital in Boston ! So tell us, Kira, what do you do in #functionalgenomics and @pgc_fg ?🤔 Any #funfacts #genetics 🐝❓ 🧵3/3
- Reposted by hjerling-leffler🌟Today @fg-pgc.bsky.social and @pgcgenetics.bsky.social are in Bengaluru, India, where we love to highlight Dr KALYANI BINDU's work and the dynamic #functionalgenomics scene 🧬🧠 She shows that many of the same biological mechanisms play a role in different #mentalhealth disorders ! One drug for all?
- Reposted by hjerling-leffler🌟for our last portrait, @fg-pgc.bsky.social is back in Germany @unibonn.bsky.social, where Dr EVA BEINS @evabeins.bsky.social studies #genetics and #microglia in #depression & #bipolardisorder. Think #brain #immune cells and #mentalhealth 🧠🧬👨🎓
- Reposted by hjerling-lefflerOur last, but by NO means least, group is the ✨Single Cell Transcriptomics✨group! Our two awesome chairs lead this group, with @hjerling-leffler.bsky.social focusing on brain🧠, and @maryellenlynall.bsky.social on immune🦠 🧵1/2
- Reposted by hjerling-lefflerFirst paper from the lab is now online @natneuro.nature.com ! We mapped injury induced enhancers in the mouse CNS and decoded their sequence architecture. Little 🧵 rdcu.be/eSQi1

- Reposted by hjerling-lefflerA rather 'unique' paper from our lab is online in @cp-cellreports.bsky.social now. Unique in the sense that I don't think anyone else will be rushing to optotag cortical interneurons in the early postnatal brain... because it is nigh on impossible! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
- Having a great time at the HiiLIFE Science Days at @Helsinki.fi Gracious hosts, beautiful venue, fantastic science and plenty of real coffee.
- Reposted by hjerling-lefflerIncredibly proud of @kxhuang.bsky.social for persisting with such a challenging dataset from her PhD! We found some intriguing genetic targets in a corticostriatal circuit that may be involved in the development of #anorexia nervosa 🤔 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
- Reposted by hjerling-lefflerHow do neutrophils contribute to mental health? Delighted to share research led by @staceykigar.bsky.social: meningeal neutrophils shape how the brain responds to stress. Out today @natcomms.nature.com. More in the thread⬇️ @psychiatry-ucam.bsky.social @medcambridge.bsky.social @camneuro.bsky.social

- Reposted by hjerling-lefflerUnderstanding why antidepressants don't always work 🧠🛡️ New research by @maryellenlynall.bsky.social reveals the key role played by the immune system in symptoms of depression. 📖https://bit.ly/469cXyI
- Reposted by hjerling-lefflerNew updated on how pyramidal neurons impact interneuron subtypes. Turns out spontaneous activity, Wnt signaling in PV Interneurons and integrin-signaling in SST neurons are the culprits! Also see how optimal transport tracks identity.https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.07.20.604399v2

- Reposted by hjerling-leffler#neuroskyence folks: as my postdoc grant is running out soon, I am looking for new opportunities in systems neuroscience! Keywords: patch clamp ephys, opto, mouse behavior, (in vivo) voltage imaging. Would love to return to the Basal Ganglia. Sharing appreciated, and happy #FluorescenceFriday !
- Reposted by hjerling-lefflerOur study on the impact of altered serotonin (5-HT) signalling on the developing sensory cortex is now live at Nature Comms. We use longitudinal in vivo imaging of 5-HT and neural activity to show that this neuromodulator is buffered in early life to promote bottom-up instruction of sensory areas.

- A recent preprint from the lab. Turns out biology trumps technical measures for benchmarking of transcriptomics.
- Reposted by hjerling-lefflerThrilled to share our latest study out in @natureportfolio.nature.com led by the fantastically talented Jing Liu. Our study provides insight into a long standing question in biology: What molecular features make us uniquely human and how do these function? www.nature.com/articles/s41...
