This piece was so fun to write because the whole lab chipped in and team-wrote it over the series of a few lab meetings (+finessing)
Check out this 🆕 article from Minerva, @cate-cholamine.bsky.social, & colleagues reviewing the pros, cons, and best applications for currently available genome-wide sequencing technologies in neuropsychiatric research
A practical guide to sequencing in neuropsychiatric research - NPP—Digital Psychiatry and Neuroscience
This review offers a simple overview on the pros, cons, and best applications for currently available genome-wide sequencing technologies in neuropsychiatric research.

How is the nervous system organized to coordinate behavior? To approach this massive question, a team led by @asbates.bsky.social, @jasper-tms.bsky.social, @mindyisminsu.bsky.social, & Helen Yang present the BANC: a Brain and Nerve Cord connectome.
Preprint: doi.org/10.1101/2025...
🧪#Neuroskyence
Public access to the first fly connectome that spans the whole CNS - BANC!: codex.flywire.ai?dataset=banc
Different from prior connectomes - it is brain + cord (think spinal cord)
We use it to ‘embody’ the system and find it resembles ‘subsumption architecture’ doi.org/10.1101/2025...

I’m very excited to share that I will join the University of Utah Department of Neurobiology as an Assistant Professor in Jan 2026!! 🎉🏔️🏜️
My lab will focus on body–brain interactions in learning & memory — how do signals from our internal organs remodel the brain & behavior?
