At #SfN? Check out super talented graduate student Esther's poster on how acute alcohol modulates cell specific in vivo cortical activity. You can also congratulate her on recently defending her Masters thesis!!

Thrilled to share this work from my postdoc with Tom Carmichael, available online @ Neuron! Long story short: we find even more evidence that all reactive astrocytes are not equal, and we can take advantage of those differences to improve repair after stroke.

Regionally mapped astrocytic responses to cortical and white matter stroke show differential roles in astrocyte-induced vascular remodeling
Stroke is a major cause of disability. Astrocytes respond to stroke in a gradated manner, but details of that response and its consequences for tissue…

Chemogenetic Control of Striatal Astrocytes Improves Parkinsonian Motor Deficits in Mice
Dopamine depletion reduces locomotion-induced calcium activity in dorsal striatal astrocytes. Chemogenetic activation facilitates astrocyte locomotion responses and improves motor behavior in dopami...
