Happy to announce our new paper in Nature Communications: rdcu.be/eBpGY
We show how CRH in the thalamic reticular nucleus modulates NREM sleep, helping to understand how stress impacts sleep

Congrats to Loredana Cumpana and team, in work led by Simone Astori!

Corticotropin-releasing hormone modulates NREM sleep consolidation through the thalamic reticular nucleus

Nature Communications - Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH), known for activating the HPA axis during stress, also acts centrally in the brain. Here, the authors show that CRH modulates thalamic...

Is the function of the Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) an important determinant of human #stress #resilience? Can we pharmacologically boost BBB function? How does this relate to peripheral #inflammation? And what does it mean to use a drug with putatively protective function in healthy people?

April kicks off #StressAwarenessMonth, but before we talk about #stress, can we define it? And #resilience?

Our committees worked together on harmonized, working definitions — still evolving, but a great foundation to build on.
