Heterogeneous plasticity of amygdala interneurons in associative learning and extinction - Nature Communications
In this study, the authors uncover how diverse inhibitory interneurons in the amygdala flexibly contribute to fear and safety learning, revealing a key role for inhibition in emotional memory and adap...

Beautiful work by Anna Ziegler and colleagues! CerS dysfunction is associated with the developmental disorder PME8. With #Drosophila genetics and lipidomics, they define the lipid species responsible for the simplification of neuronal #dendrites in CerS mutants.

Individual lipid alterations at the origin of neuronal Ceramide Synthase defects
Authors summary The brain is the most lipid-enriched organ of our body. At the same time, it is highly susceptible to disturbances in lipid metabolism. In this context, ceramide metabolism deserves sp...

Ed Kravitz passed away yesterday.
He was a remarkable scientist and mentor- brilliant, curious, creative, and kind. I am grateful to have learned from him. His legacy will endure through his science and through the many people he inspired.
We will miss you, Ed.
