Y'all, I'm in this tweet! Won't do the where's Waldo thing, though (I'm too easy to spot).
Jokes aside, thanks to Network Glia @gliameeting.bsky.social for the stipend to attend #GLIA2025!

#GLIA2025 is in full swing!
We’re halfway through an exciting week full of energy, ideas, and exchange.
Highlights so far:
🎓 Stipend Award Session
🧠 Poster Sessions
🤝 Welcome Reception
Let’s keep the momentum going!

This is today! I will be representing the @navarrete-llinas.bsky.social lab at #GLIA2025 talking about astrocyte ensembles in memory and behavior. Go check it out!
Curious how astrocyte diversity rewires circuits & drives brain health/disease? Join our S24 symposium “Astrocyte Heterogeneity: Synapses → Behavior” at the XVII European Glia Meeting on Thu 10 Jul 2025! Proud #IBROSpeakerSupport awardee. See you there! #IBRO #IBROinEurope

Took a plane to Marseille this morning on my way to #GLIA2025. Landed in Nice instead because of a wildfire. At least I get to see some gorgeous views of the Côte Bleue from the train to Marseille. Could have been worse, I guess.

There are times when science and art collide. 🧪🎨 I once took these micrographs of astrocytes expressing CaMPARI-GFAP, a calcium indicator for taking snapshots of astrocytic activity. They reminded me of a firework display which just won first prize at SENC's #NeuroArt contest! 🎆 youtu.be/eyPI8r15db4

So I patched an astrocyte.

Impressive work by our very own @crismonteagudo.bsky.social on #astrocytes in THC-related impairments. 🧪🧠✨ Go show the preprint some love 👇🏼
🚨New preprint alert!🚨
Excited to share our latest research led by @crismonteagudo.bsky.social on how accumbal #astrocyte ensembles modulate #THC impairments. Huge thanks to our collaborators: Nagore Puente, Pedro Grandes, Giovanni Marsicano, and Ana Covelo.🧪🐁🧠✨

Astrocytic Ensemble at vHip-NAc synapses Modulates Cognitive Impairments Induced by Chronic THC Exposure
Cannabis is the most widely used illicit drug, particularly during adolescence, and its consumption disrupts glutamate homeostasis and synaptic plasticity in the nucleus accumbens (NAc). While astrocy...

Kicking off our Bluesky profile celebrating our newest publication in @natureneuro.bsky.social! Using our new tool AstroLight we demonstrate that a specific group of #astrocytes —an astrocyte ensemble— in the nucleus accumbens regulates cue-motivated behavior. Check it out!✨https://rdcu.be/d8qJi
