PhD Voice - Independently Run @PhDVoice

It’s amazing (and by amazing I mean alarming) how many people need a long break after their PhDs. Is the PhD process really the best way for getting people ready for further employment then? #PhDVoice @PostdocVoice

Really happy to be starting my new lab at the University of Aberdeen. The initial focus in the lab will be on trying to investigate how neurons are affected at the cellular and circuit level in different models of autism. Can’t wait to get going!

Our aim, increasing the diagnostic rate for SYNGAP1. The last 7 years we see symptoms mild to severe & milder cases of SYNGAP1 are being missed. Listen to Hana’s story. Her symptoms are mild, as still affects her quality of life. #SYNGAP1 @Syngap1Fnd youtu.be/VdLuls9EhSk

Here our new preprint "Multimodal cues displayed by submissive rats promote prosocial choices by dominants" bit.ly/3K8CEDv with @CrisMarquezVega lab. We showed that dominance modulates prosocial behaviour in rats by shaping social interactions during decision-making🧵👇🏿
