🚨 NEW BrainPod Episode Alert 🚨

This one features #Cannabinerds @connorhaggarty.bsky.social & @mayoonthebrain.bsky.social, official representatives of #TeamAEA

As someone who has spent the last 25 years studying sex differences in brain function and behavior and the last 10 advocating (loudly) for SABV and working to help my colleagues implement the policy into their work, this is utterly heartbreaking.

To all the talented scientists 🤩 who didn’t get a travel award or membership for #ACNP2024 this is for you: KEEP APPLYING 😉. So many incredible applications and so few slots. 327 applications for travel awards! That’s an amazing pool of talent 🧠 and a really hard job for the committee. 👏

Love working with @im74ve.bsky.social @denisjdavid.bsky.social and the team!

Congrats to all the winners! 🤩

How can you review for @dpn-journal.bsky.social & @npp-journal.bsky.social?

Ask your mentors if you can help with their reviews, & to recommend you if they don’t accept invitation. Or email NPP/DPN Principal Editors to express interest, attach CV, & include key words describing your expertise.

Hi #ACNP2024! A little late to the trend here, but I’m Briana, a postdoc at Columbia and Special Projects Manager for NPP! Been coming to ACNP for several years and it’s my fave meeting for the science and people. Swing by my poster (W221) on Wednesday if you’re interested in NMDA + 5-HT4 targeting!

Thank you so much! I also have to hand it to the staff at Springer Nature and Cynthia Graber! They make the podcast so good ❤️

So excited to welcome @drfriid.bsky.social to the NPP Special Projects team! 🥳

Excited to see these new accounts! 💁🏻‍♀️
