Thrilled to become an associate member of @acnporg.bsky.social and the opportunity to attend more ACNP meetings!

Lab member: can I show you some data?
Me, 9am: YES
Me, 8pm: YES
Me, 3am: YES
Me, while undergoing surgery: YES

I couldn't pick just one, but I had such a great time at #ACNP2026! Thank you so much for the past travel award support!! Always amazing to see the reviewers for @npp-journal.bsky.social and @dpn-journal.bsky.social each year (and to be a top reviewer again this year).

Excited to share that I'm accepting applications for a PhD student to join my lab in Fall 2026!

Don’t miss out on this opportunity! Submissions are open for poster abstracts for ACNP 64th Annual Meeting: January 12-15, 2026, Nassau, Bahamas. You must be registered for the meeting before you can submit a poster. https://bit.ly/3TXuYcz #ACNP2026

So proud of Izzy for giving such a fantastic talk! We’re going to miss her as she goes on to bigger and better things at Vanderbilt

#PNIRS2025 Calling all postdocs through pre-tenured faculty to join us on Wednesday at 18:00 for the Early Career Researchers Social! A great way to give early career investigators a chance to chat about the interview process, transition to faculty position, and experiences starting up your own lab!

Autophagy repression by antigen and cytokines shapes mitochondrial, migration and effector machinery in CD8 T cells - Nature Immunology Sinclair et al. combine quantitative proteomics and an autophagy flux reporter to map autophagy substrates and triggers during CD8 T cell differentiation. Proteins degraded and fueled by autophagy in ...

Exciting paper from the Cantrell lab out in @natimmunol.bsky.social about the role of autophagy in CD8 T cells exploring the role of amino acid availability.

Lots of very cool proteomics data quantifying which proteins are degraded under what conditions.

2025 Study section tracking

Wondering if your study section cancelled? I update this sheet daily. As of today, 56/124 study sections that should have met since Jan 2, 2025 have "not met as scheduled." docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

This threaded discussion on sex differences in mechanisms leading to Alzheimer’s disease and neurodegeneration is worth a read. #microglia, #neuroinflammation

Love this. Fantastic way to get into touch with the glial community!

Finally made the migration!

To any new faces, I'm Jon and I'm a postdoc at UNC studying microglia, astrocytes, brain development, stress, and addiction. I'm also on the job market!

Way more people here!

Anything you want to know about NIH peer review? Ever wondered why you can’t get your grant scores at meeting end? The SRO has to check them against in-discussion notes! Every meeting there are typos that take a day or two to fix. Trust me, you want those scores to be right!

Great way to start to reconnect with psychoneuroimmunology folks on bluesky! Thank you so much to Mandy for setting this up!

Yes I would love to do this!

Going to start to migrate from twitter and hope to reconnect here. My team studies sex differences in neurodevelopment with a focus on neuro-immune interactions, maternal immune activation, microglial dynamics, and mitochondrial functions. #neuroscience #neuroimmunology #PNIRS
