My 1st preprint is out! We wanted to understand how the shift from dorsomedial (DMS) to dorsolateral (DLS) #striatum occurs when actions become automated. But from a different perspective - one where rigid actions are optimal instead of maladaptive. 1/7

Over the moon to be awarded an @arc_gov_au #DiscoveryProject with Prof Simon Killcross @ #UNSWScience! This project will investigate when, where and how corticostriatal circuits support impulse control. Big thanks to the village of supporters that helped me get here! #DP25 🐀🧠👩🏻🔬

Latest preprint from the lab! This is the bulk of superstar @arvieabiero's PhD work
Neuroinflammation in the dorsomedial striatum causes excessive goal-directed action control by disrupting homeostatic astrocyte function biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Please join us in congratulating @ElizabethHaris, @beccooper_ , @sketriene and @MiaLangguth with winning the @BPA_ECRN Professional Development Awards! #BPA2022
It’s out! @pop_watson turned our dynamic discussions about habits into this stellar review. So lucky to be a part of a group that shares, challenges and develops ideas while learning from each other 🌟

I’ve been lucky enough to have many discussions about #autism research with @MiaLangguth and the passion and insight she gained as a #carer is inspiring. Check out her story here 👇
Neuroscientist @MiaLangguth was working part-time as a carer when she met Chris, a 24-year-old man living with #autism.
It was an encounter which helped shape her research career.

Very lucky to have open conversations with this collaborative group about measuring #habits in the lab -> in humans and rodents! Why is it so challenging? Can we measure habits beyond a lack of goal-directed control? Check out our preprint led by @Pop_Watson👇
