WOW! 372 "astrocyte" presentations this year at #SfN2023 @SfNTweets
Not enough talks - let's work on this for 2024. Full roundup below. I am SURE I have missed some, so please reply with more! Daily session roundups to come for each session. See you all soon.

New paper out in Cell Reports! Led by @susieyufeng.bsky.social, we found that chronic epilepsy in mice drives distinct synchronization deficits in hippocampus and MEC, with early changes in HPC and late-onset changes in MEC that align with progressive memory impairment.

A spatial threshold for astrocyte calcium surge

❓ Do you know what the anterior hypothalamic nucleus (AHN) does? No? Neither did we! 🧠
In a new preprint from the Cai Lab, learn how we discovered the AHN’s central role in regulating stress vulnerability.

SO EXCITED to share our latest work demonstrating that the anterior hypothalamic nucleus (AHN) regulates stress vulnerability!!!

🌟 Cai Lab Nature (@natureportfolio.bsky.social) paper alert! In work led by Joe Zaki, we find that rest periods after learning not only stabilize new memories BUT ALSO integrate new memories with older ones from days past! (1/10)
