So much Neuroscience fun #SfN25!!
Here are Nicole Bring and Adam Landstein, Emory University undergrads from my lab, presenting today.
Go Sanchez lab!!! #ENPRC

A spatially resolved transcriptomic atlas of the primate amygdala (human, macaque, and baboon) now out in Science Advances (www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...). The amygdala contains 32 types of neurons with many neuron types specific to particular subdivisions.

Lots of updates from the preprint!
Transcriptomic diversity of amygdalar subdivisions across humans and nonhuman primates
Specialized cell types and links to psychiatric disorders are revealed by genetic mapping of primate amygdala neurons.

Very excited to share my second postdoc, now out in Science Advances! We used targeted snRNA-seq to profile four major subnuclei of the primate across three species (including humans). 1/13 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

I bombed my first faculty job interview by riffing in my chalk talk about how the NAc shell/core distinction was a weak organizing principle in primates.

I feel vindicated.

(3/10) Additionally, we show that human NAc organization is not simply divided into “core” and “shell,” but instead reflects continuous spatial gradients of MSN subtypes linked to genetic risk for psychiatric and addiction-related traits.
