Best day of the year? #Match2025 and the @StanfordMedRes residency #retreat the same day!?!? 🤯 We couldn’t be more excited to welcome this INCREDIBLE 2025-2026 intern class to the @StanfordDeptMed family! Includes 14 MD/PhDs and 11 new members of our #TIP program. Congrats &…
My paper is out!! 🎉
"Opponent control of reinforcement by striatal dopamine and serotonin", @Nature
Here, we show that dopamine and serotonin signals form a gas-brake system for reward in the mammalian brain 🧠

1/5 Excited to share our new paper where we used a rare selection of direct recordings from the human thalamus to understand its role in coordinating high frequency oscillations, called ripples, in the cortex and hippocampus during sleep. plos.io/3UYXnkb

This week, the Stanford Bio-X Undergraduate Summer Research Program featured 3 more amazing faculty talks, from Dr. Helen Blau, Dr. Jason Tucciarone, and Dr. Vivek Buch ( @VivekBuchMD )!
We spent hundreds of hours recording neural activity from sleep and arousal-related cell types in the deep brain, all while delivering variant focused ultrasound pulsing schemes to gain insight into one of the most daunting questions in the field: 'What are the parameters?'.
Now out in @brainstimj from @KellerStanfordU and @boeslab! What does TMS do to the human brain? Using a combination of intracranial EEG and TMS, we published one of the deepest explorations of TMS-related change in human neurophysiology to date. 1/7 🧵brainstimjrnl.com/article/S1935-…
This project blew me away from day 1…I am still so fascinated! And grateful to be part of such a fantastic group effort.. Congrats @BelginYalcin_@michelle_monje and the rest of the team !

Maladaptive myelin changes on dopaminergic axons after morphine use modify reward circuitry to give rise to drug-seeking behavior in mice. Final version of study led by @BelginYalcin_ out today! #OpiateCrisisnature.com/articles/s4158…
Our "Big Ideas in Neuroscience" initiative connected addiction-focused basic research, clinical application, and public policy to create @NeuroChoice, a community across traditional disciplinary boundaries, deepening understanding of decision-making. neuroscience.stanford.edu/news/neurochoi…
Can whole-brain imaging of cellular c-Fos signals be used for #psychedelics drug discovery?
This was a project led by @aboharbf and @PashaDavoudian, where they tested a panel of drugs and developed a machine learning pipeline to classify.

Stanford Medicine researchers delve into the therapeutic potential of psychedelics. Guided trips with trained professionals could pave the way for psychiatric healing by breaking rigid thought patterns.

As promised, here is a 2-minute summary of my newly published paper: “MDMA enhances empathy-like behaviors in mice via serotonin release in the nucleus accumbens.”
Science is not complete until it’s communicated! 🗣️
Enormous thanks to @MoeNeuro, @TheBorisLab, & Rob Malenka
Thrilled to share that my postdoc work from the Malenka lab is out today!
Of course, this work will not be complete until it’s communicated. Short video summary coming soon
