Hi Molly! Yes we are, if interested they can email me.

We're losing scientific progress in real-time. Call your house rep and senators, and spread the word that real people are losing their jobs and having their futures upended because of these suspended funds. We can't afford not to fund science-there is too much at stake. 9/9

postdoc learning the new cutting-edge technology to apply it to today's and the future diseases; a junior Pl who has the next big idea in biomedicine: they are all wondering if they will have a job in the next couple of months. 8/9

please speak out against penalizing researchers who just want to do their job for the good of humanity, because that is precisely what's happening.
The country's future medical doctors who gain research experience in a UCLA lab as an undergraduate; the graduate student or 7/9

Many of my colleagues are not as lucky as I am. They perform cutting-edge world-changing research and were supported entirely by NIH and/or NSF funds that are now suspended. No matter what you think of the politics of this or your views on punishing universities 6/9

During these challenging times, that is one thing nobody will take away from us: our curiosity and spirit to work together in pursuit of knowledge to improve the human condition will NEVER cease. 5/9

I have funds to pay team members in the short term, but I don't know how long I can support them without NIH funds. What I do know is that we won't stop doing our research, and you can't stop our curiosity for discovery. 4/9

undergrads, grad students, techs, and postdocs researching the molecular regulation of gene expression in the brain and social behavior. What has been a passion of mine for years, NIH funds allowed me to share with future doctors and early career scientists. 3/9

have to wonder if their research can continue. I am sharing my thoughts now in hopes that you can spread the word on the human side of these suspensions. Obtaining an NIH grant is a difficult but rewarding achievement. With my funds, I was able to support 2/9

If hired, you will gain experience performing CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing, behavioral analysis, and spatial transcriptiomics using our 10X Genomcis Xenium. Position is for 1-2 years. Official posting coming soon. Reach out or spread the word to others please. Thanks! 2/2

Here’s the segment on NIH from tonight’s 60 minutes www.cbsnews.com/video/nih-cu...

This is terrible, Troy. I’m so sorry. Your work is important for advancing knowledge in general and for neuroendocrinology!

Congrats, and it’s a relief some are still getting positive news on their NIH funding.

Check out the papers to learn more! In our ongoing work we continue to do experiments to figure out the hormonal regulation of social behavior in both sexes. We’re looking to recruit grad students and a postdoc for these projects, so email if interested! @sbn-bsky.bsky.social 5/5

In this paper Lillian tested whether androgen receptor alpha, which is required for quivers in males, was required for quivers during female aggression. ARa wasn’t required for female quivers, or any form of aggression by females 4/5

Finally, male and female brains looked very different after this assay: males showed an elevation of neural activity in the VMH, an aggression node, while females showed inhibition of neural activity in social brain regions. 3/5
