Anybody else having issues with ASSIST in eRA commons? Webpage won’t load since last week.

Anybody have a successful LRP renewal app they’d be willing to share?

Anybody out there skip the K99/R00 and go straight to submitting an R01?

Also to our surprise, the mAb did NOT produce the same robust effect on fentanyl self-administration that we saw before, in the same NHPs, presumably due to slight differences in study design, the pharmacokinetics of the mAb & mAb:carfent:fent molar ratios.

A humanized monoclonal antibody attenuates carfentanil self-administration in nonhuman primates Approximately 70 % of fatal drug overdoses in the United States are attributed to fentanyl and fentanyl analogs. Current medications for reversing ove…

Our new *short report* that was just published shows that a monoclonal antibody previously shown to attenuate the effects of fentanyl had cross-reactivity for carfentanil in 2 NHPs. This was especially interesting because the mAb had little relative affinity for carfent in vitro…

The never-ending millennial struggle to refrain from ending a sentence in an email with “lol” is EXHAUSTING.

Going to #ACNP2024 ? @acnporg.bsky.social

TUESDAY you can see some awesome adolescent work from a great mentor of mine, #twitterless Marisa M. Silveri!

WEDNESDAY you can see me in action talking about sex- and anxiety-specific BNST network responses to cues and images!

Tuesday at #ACNP2024 you have work by @brainsbeesbikes.bsky.social & me (T186), @hmarusak.bsky.social (T187) and @mayoonthebrain.bsky.social’s lab (T188) all next to each other… what more can a #Cannabinerd ask for?

Have never gotten sick as many times as I have the last ~year since moving to TX. Is it stress? Or is it Texas? Strexas???

Flyer that says: "Sober Scientists Meet-n-greet @ ACNP 2024 | PHX, AX A casual meet-up to build a network of sober scientists. Monday Dec 9th | 4:30 pm Outside poster sallon (Grand Canyon) Hosted by Nikki Zabik & Hilary Marusak"

@hmarusak.bsky.social and I will be hosting a #SoberScientist meet-up at #ACNP2024 ‼️

This is a casual meet-up to create a network of sober scientists—happening before the 1st poster session.

Open to anyone who is sober for now, sober for life, sober curious, or looking to support a friend 🙌

This!! It took me 3 application cycles to get into a MS program & I applied to 10 PhD programs after, only getting into 2, & despite being told I should take a year off & improve GRE scores. If you have the means to do it, apply anyways!

For anyone hesitant on submitting grad apps, DO IT‼️

The worst possible outcome is “apply again next year”. But the best is that YOU GET ACCEPTED ✨

I applied to 4 grad programs and was rejected from all except one. But they still call me Dr. now 😏

ALL YOU NEED IS ONE 🙌🏾
