Amy Arnsten honoring Nancy Andreasen in the Annual Andreasen Lecture @UIowaNeuro, telling exciting stories about Human specialization and vulnerability of dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex layer 3–maybe target for helping those with schizophrenia. Thanks for hosting, @narayananlab – at Iowa City, IA

Paraphrasing Amy Arnsten: AMPARs—great for accurate timing, but you want NMDARs (w/ nicotinic alpha 7R, Calbindin in cell body) to keep something going (AKA DLPFC Layer 3). Great system to be able to pull cognition off line, but also allows it to break, esp. with inflammation – at Iowa City, IA
Exciting day for kids ages 5-11 who are now eligible for the updated COVID booster. #CallYourPediatrician to schedule your child's booster and ask about getting their flu shot at the same time!
