Exciting news! 💥 We are growing and recruiting faculty with specialties in endo/stone/bph/MIS and URPS @UConnUrology - extremely supportive academic environment, work with our amazing residents - DMs open if interested @Endo_Society @sufuorg @NewEngland_AUA @BrookeHarnisch
As is often the case @SensJonathon beat me to the punch, but please do check them out! Some great work from some great young scientists. And several first time @SfNtweets attendees!
Also come say hi to the other @KiralyLab members presenting! Exciting work being done by amazing people!

Excited to be able to finally share this work with everyone! Histone variant exchange, where histone protein are swapped for one another, is an interesting mechanism for gene regulation. We show it plays a key role in cocaine responses.
Please see this exciting publication by @PhilippMews and others which describes a novel "chromatin scar" induced by cocaine, lasting depletion of H2A.Z from nucleosomes, in nucleus accumbens medium spiny neurons that drives gene priming and drug relapse. science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…
Thrilled to announce my appointment as Co-Director of the Wake Forest Center for Addiction Research. I am excited to work with this world class group of scientists and clinicians to advance understanding and treatment of substance use disorders.
Two lab qualifying exams in two weeks! A huge congrats to Marta Koperska on passing with flying colors. Gratulacje! @MartaKoperska3 @wakeforestmed
Some sparkling cider to celebrate Jonathon being our first successful qualifying exam from Kiraly Lab South!! Congrats, J! @SensJonathon
New lab paper alert! Work by @KelseyLucerne and colleagues finds the cytokine CSF2 is increased by cocaine in a microbiome dependent manner. Increased CSF2 signaling leads to decreased cocaine preference and altered transcriptional response to cocaine. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3909…
Thanks to all fabulous co-authors who helped identify this exciting gut-immune-brain axis (and who wouldn't fit in the first tweet)! @AyaOsman @OfMiceAndMinds @yeshadave5 @avashipman_ @FlurinCathomas @OffordRefresh @DannisCazarez & apparently Twitterless Calista Dean

CONGRATULATIONS @AyaOsman on your promotion to Asst Professor in @DPS_ISMMS! Dr Osman’s research focuses on mechanisms by which composition of resident bacteria of #GutMicrobiome interact w/ specific windows of neurodevelopment to alter brain MOPr system in #ASD & #DrugAddiction
Congratulations to Christina who is heading off to med school! You have been such an asset to the lab and we wish you all the best on your long journey to…Wake Med! 😄 @wakeforestmed #kiralylab
