This speaks to the importance of cross-species research that is constantly forward- & back-translated between the clinic & lab. The importance of animal models leading to unanticipated discoveries - even in the realm of human psychology - is invaluable, especially in psychiatry🧠 tinyurl.com/yur3j2n8

Hi #ACNP2024! I'm a NIDA K99 postdoc in Michael Bruchas' lab at UW, interested in how endogenous opioids in the basal ganglia promote goal-directed behavior. Come by my poster on Wed (W171) if you'd like to hear more.
I'm also on the job market and would love to chat about potential opportunities!
