Today @liisagalea.bsky.social was filmed for a #CNN show on #WomensHealth !! 🔥 ⭐️ 👑 So, of course, we had to celebrate at #BlueRibbonSushi ! 😊 Always so amazing to see you and catch up! ❤️
Excited that our symposium "Brain-Body Interactions as Regulators of Brain Plasticity, Behavior & Disease Risk" was accepted for @acnporg.bsky.social annual meeting! Chair: @scottrussophd.bsky.social Co-chair: myself + Sarah Stanley (Mount Sinai) & Ivan de Araujo (Max Planck) as speakers🔥 #ACNP2027
So nice to have a visit by our dear collaborator @masako-suzuki.bsky.social from @tamu.bsky.social . And always a good reason for the lab to have lunch at the #ZeroOttoNove in the #Bronx ! 😀❤️
Had great time at #GRC meeting on Neuroepigenetics! Lovely nature, good food & exceptional science. Ian Maze & I are future vice chairs! Excited to help this meeting & community grow! 🙏all! @barcolab.bsky.social @ennatsew.bsky.social @joeecker.bsky.social @apombo1.bsky.social @creminslab.bsky.social
Sushi night with @jordanmarrocco.bsky.social at #KunTsukiOmakase . You gotta love this city 😍
Traveling tomorrow for the inaugural #GRC on Neural Genetics & Epigenetics. Looking forward to hearing about all the new research in the field, catching up w/ colleagues & giving a talk on our X chromosome study on Wednesday! 🔥 grc.org/neural-genet...
Fully packed room with literally hundreds of people for our FENS symposium on 3D genome regulation in the brain. This was an amazing lineup of speakers, too, a star after star, and then the dinner was something else 👌 Feeling so privilaged! ❤️ #FENS2026 w @apombo1.bsky.social @boyanbonev.bsky.social
If you are at #FENS2026 in Barcelona, don’t miss our symposium at 15:40 today (Tuesday) on 3D genome regulation in the brain. Amazing line-up of speakers, it’s going to be great! 🔥
Had an incredible time in Greece - Athens and the Evia Island - last week. Culture, people, food, the sea…it was magical! Until next time! 🇬🇷 💙 ❤️ 🙏
What an incredible honor to give a talk at the Serbian Academy of Science and Arts in Belgrade! Many dear people in the audience, so it was also very emotional for me... Many thanks to the Serbian Neuroscience Society, its president Selma Kanazir & to all colleagues and friends who came! ❤️
Very excited and honored to give a talk at the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts (SANU) in Belgrade next Wednesday. Many thanks to the Serbian Neuroscience Society and its president Selma Kanazir for this invitation! So much looking forward to this! ❤️

Still thinking of a great public discussion we had on "Why is the menopausal transition so poorly understood by science?". 70+ people, the vibe was electric! 🙏 @ljiljanamarina.bsky.social @mladiendo.bsky.social @fordham.edu , all colleagues & friends who came! To be continued soon! #WomensHealth 🔥
Such an amazing symposium on menopausal transition today in Belgrade! 🔥w @ljiljanamarina.bsky.social Selma Kanazir, Ivana Bjelobaba, @mladiendo.bsky.social . So much food for thought in a warm & stimulating atmosphere. It was also special to have @liisagalea.bsky.social with us.. on her B-day! ♥️
Greetings from beautiful #Torino ! Here for Steroids & Nervous System conference! We had a fantastic all-star symposium on Ovarian hormones in brain plasticity & disease risk! @cogneuroend.bsky.social @ncndgroup.bsky.social @neuromaternal.bsky.social @liisagalea.bsky.social & food is 👌 #SNS2026
Excited to be part of this public discussion on perimenopause: "Why is the menopausal transition so poorly understood by science?"
