The gut-brain connection

Glia cells mediate cytokine signalling between the gut and the brain, linking sleep to inflammation in the gut.

Our ePoster on vagus nerve stimulation & cardiac recovery in #stemi (part of my PhD!) was presented yesterday at #ESC365 🎉
Proud of the team & grateful for this milestone! 🧠❤️ #ESC2025

The "second brain" of the body—the gut (enteric) nervous system—can tamp down inflammation of the gut lining via release of a neuropeptide, a discovery that may help vs inflammatory bowel disease

Presenting my PhD research today in the @International society of Behavioral Medicine in Vienna,Austria was fascinating, engaging, and full of excitement for sharing knowledge all across the world

It was exciting to take part in this meaningful annual PNIRS conference in Bordeaux, France, and to present my research.

Iso excited to be here at #PNIRS2025! This is the best conference and society, I’m thrilled to meet all of you!

A few letters, colors, and labels seem to be missing🤣🤣🤣🤣⬇️
#Bordeaux @pnirs.bsky.social

Fascinating symposium and lecturers
#PNIRS

I’m excited too and looking forward to tomorrow 🙂
See u in Bordeaux

Excited to join the upcoming conference and present part of my PhD.
I’m always looking to connect with researchers who are passionate about science, curious minds, and meaningful collaboration.
Let’s talk science, ideas, and future direnctions،feel free to reach out!

Proud of presenting in the Israeli research association annual conference part of my oPhD project which examined the effects of #vagus_nerve_stimilation cardiac function after #STEMI
Enjoying share knowledge
I will share the paper when published

Proudly presenting the (for now) final version of "Why experiments work." To share the materials in a slightly more professional manner, I added a "Resources" page to my website: juliarohrer.com/resources/.

That was long overdue anyway; now there's also a curated list of my papers and blog posts.

One of the biggest, most common problems in research is missing or incomplete data -- EVEN in RCTs!

Learning to spot problematic incomplete data is a critical skill for anyone wanting to read or do research.

What is incomplete data? What red flags should you look for? And what about green flags? 👇

Transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) of the tragus in the ear improved autonomic function, reduced inflammation and helped treat #POTS in a small, RCT study buff.ly/4dOchBR

This is my first post! I’m a PhD candidate in psycho-neuroimmunology. My main project focuses on non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation in acute STEMI. supervised Prof Yuri Gidron, and our findings will soon be published. Looking forward to connecting
