"Together these preclinical findings reveal a regionally specific molecular pathway in male mice that should be further investigated as a possible target to reduce fear-based symptoms of adolescent maltreatment."

🔥The NIH has funded our R25 grant to bring Night Science training to all 40,000 US postdoctoral fellows!
It all started with discussions at the Radcliffe Summit we organized 2 years ago at Harvard where the question was how bring creativity training into the sciences. Our R25 team includes the amazing @StearnsLab, @brangwynnelab, @OylerYanivLab, @JamesKaufman, Maura N. Polansky, Oliver Bogler and @MartinJLercher.
Stop by our 4 presentations on self regulation (social distance & metacognition) at #Neuro2026 @jnsorg starting today at Kobe!
These studies represent new lines of our study using rat and marmoset models at NCNP, Tokyo.
Love to receive your feedback~

Join us @SOBP #SOBP2026 for our translational approach to understanding aspects impacting and mechanisms underlying abnormal development + those that might promote resilience! w Drs Benson Ku, @theDOORlab Mandy Kentner, & @morishih
Broadway Ballroom 6th Floor
Join our symposium @SOBP from 3pm today led by @JaredWYoung on cross-species approaches for prevention!
Excited to present our new expression-based polygenic risk score analysis to link mouse circuit data with human developmental cohort in collab with Benson Ku (Emory). xitter.cf/morishih/status/205062…

More VERY COOL images from the "Art of the Brain"! In @morishih Lab's Ayako Kawatake-Kuno's "Dopminergic innervation", Dopaminergic (DAergic) fibers form extensive, dense networks that surround and innervate target neurons. VOTE NOW for #ArtoftheBrain Image # 19 👉 Most 💗s wins!

So pleased to share our new paper even if it does make me feel a bit old...I began working with #ALSPAC data when these participants were barely teenagers! jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…
Excited to see this marmoset study published!
Altered kinship vocal dynamics in marmosets with valproic acid-induced model of autism: iScience cell.com/iscience/fulltext/S…
Congrats to my colleagues @NCNP_PR Drs. Mimura and Ichinohe, who led this longitudinal developmental study!
JOB ALERT!! We have an opening of a research assistant position in our lab @SinaiBrain for cognitive circuit and behavioral investigation using mouse models. 🐭 See the details below. Looking forward the applications!
Excited to share our review from @SinaiBrain just out in Developmental Psychobiology.
"Factors Modulating the Effects of Juvenile Social Isolation on Adult Social Behavior in Rodents"
onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
We provide a comprehensive review of the effects of social isolation during development on adult social behavior in rodent models, highlighting how differences in experimental paradigms can help explain disparate experimental results.
Morishita lab @sinaibrain has a poster LL13 this PM #sfn25 on unexpected circuit mechanisms of cognitive resilience to break a cycle of errors.
Say Hi to our star postdoc Tadaaki Nishioka, NIMH K99 awardee who is on the job market!
#Sfn2025
Happening from 9am today! #sfn25 room 5B
Please join tomorrow from 9am a highly anticipated Meet-the-Expert session by Dr. Weizhe Hong (UCLA) @TheHongLab, a leader in the field of social neuroscience!
I am thrilled to moderate this session at room 5B #sfn25 #sfn2025
