Tomorrow #ACNP2026 starts! Don't miss our symposium on Mon afternoon 3-5PM in Poseidon III-IV:
"How Brain Estrogen Levels, Receptors & Signaling Govern Behaviors Across Sexes: Genes, Circuits, Synapses"
w/ @PolymniaG @NeuroHoke Tara LeGates & myself. Looking forward! @ACNPorg
We finally managed to take a new lab photo, with almost everyone! Always grateful for this amazing team and all the energy they bring. 💪
📢Hot off the press! Excited to share our new paper in @molpsychiatry on the role of ERβ in stress vulnerability. Thanks to all of the authors involved @pzanos @BrianMathur1 @KirmizisLab @Michael_Patton1

📢 Exciting News! Our latest study on the link between major depressive disorder, substance-use disorders l, and premature aging has just been published! 1/n
Read the full study here :

-Antidepressants activating the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway could accelerate aging, making them unsuitable for MDD patients with dementia.
We also highlighted potential anti-aging treatments for MDD, including Deferoxamine, Resveratrol, Estradiol valerate, zinc acetate and genistein.
Congrats team! @pzanos @NeuroPharmLab and X-less Anna Onisiforou

Πατριωτισμός είναι να βλέπεις μπροστά, να χρησιμοποιείς το καλύτερο ανθρώπινο δυναμικό της πατρίδας, να προλαβαίνεις τις τραγωδίες. να προστατεύεις τον πλούτο της, το φυσικό της περιβάλλον &τους ανθρώπους της.
Απόψε καίγεται ένα πανέμορφο κομμάτι της πατρίδας μας.
Ζητείται Ελπίς!
