New preprint from our lab - lnkd.in/dyd7WzES Schizophrenia-linked miR-206 is expressed in cerebellar Purkinje cells (PCs), where it bidirectionally tunes PC firing dynamics to control sensorimotor grating.

Congratulations to our 2026 Scholars! This year’s projects span molecules to circuits to behavior and reflect the highly collaborative environment that defines neuroscience at Mount Sinai. Sincere thanks to the donors whose support makes this type of curiosity-driven science possible.

A HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to @ericjnestler.bsky.social on being named Interim Dean of the Icahn School of Medicine! As we express great enthusiasm for Dr. Nestler becoming Dean & the exciting time ahead, please join us in thanking Dean Charney for his extraordinary service & commitment to Mount Sinai.

Please join us in congratulating Dr. Roland Friedel (@labfriedel.bsky.social), an internationally recognized expert in the field of axon guidance molecules & brain tumor research, for his promotion to Professor in Neuroscience & Neurosurgery. #FriedelLab👉 labs.neuroscience.mssm.edu/project/frie...

The NIH’s new imposed standard indirect cost rate threatens life-saving brain & behavior research that benefits millions of Americans. SfN, with other scientific organizations,urge reversal of this policy & implore Congress to protect critical research infrastructure. Full statement: bit.ly/4jVJnCL

The ACNP has joined forces with other brain and behavior organizations in opposition of the NIH imposed standard indirect cost rate. acnp.org/about-us/st...
