Mentees who have participated in the program absolutely rave about it. Cheers, Giovanna From: BRAINS Date: Wednesday, March 6, 2024 at 8:14?PM To: giovanna.guerrero at gmail.com Subject: BRAINS 2024 Cohort: Now accepting applications Dear Giovanna, You are receiving this email because you came by the BRAINS booth at the Society for Neuroscience Conference in 2022. We are excited to announce applications are now being accepted for the 2024 BRAINS (Broadening the Representation of Academic Investigators in NeuroScience) cohort! Applications will be accepted through 11 pm (PT) on April 18, 2024. Please share widely with your community and apply if interested. BRAINS is an NINDS-funded, national program dedicated to advancing diversity and inclusion in neuroscience. BRAINS uses a unique cohort-based professional development approach to explicitly address the inclusion, retention, and advancement of early career neuroscientists from historically underrepresented and marginalized groups. The BRAINS experience positively impacts participants? career trajectories, especially in academic neuroscience, and creates a perpetually empowering community. BRAINS participants are early career (pre-tenure) Ph.D. scientists in neuroscience-related fields who are members of underrepresented racial and ethnic groups or are individuals with disabilities. 2024 participants will join a community of around 180 neuroscientists who are thriving in their careers. A 2022 participant described their BRAINS experience as follows: ?Participating in BRAINS gave me a stronger identity as a neuroscientist? [BRAINS] prepared me for success in [my] transition, both in terms of professional development, but also in serving as a reminder that I do belong in academic neuroscience research.? We look forward to welcoming the next cohort into the BRAINS community. Learn more about the BRAINS program and access our application by visiting our website (www.BRAINS.washington.edu). Feel free to contact us with any questions you might have at brains at uw.edu. Sincerely, The BRAINS Team Dr. Sheri Mizumori, BRAINS PI and Professor of Psychology, University of Washington Dr. Joyce Yen, BRAINS co-Director and Director UW ADVANCE Center for Institutional Change Dr. Claire Horner-Devine, BRAINS co-Director and Founder, Counterspace Consulting About BRAINS Broadening the Representation of Academic Investigators in NeuroScience (BRAINS) is a program based at the University of Washington designed to accelerate and improve the career advancement of neuroscience postdoctoral scholars and assistant professors from underrepresented groups.

From: Psych.others on behalf of Erica Busch Date: Friday, March 15, 2024 at 9:59?AM Subject: [ICN] Talk announcement: Dr. Deshawn Sambrano, 3/20/24 at 11:30 EST Dear Colleagues, Please join us on Wednesday, March 20 at 11:30am EST for an Innovators in Cognitive Neuroscience seminar given by Dr. Deshawn Sambrano, a data scientist at Harvard University and Activision. A Computational Approach to Affect and Decision Making Abstract: This research investigates how stress and arousal influence decisions under uncertainty. Two initial studies examine the effect of acute arousal and stress on risk and ambiguity aversion. The research highlights the role of the timing of arousal, suggesting that emotions synchronized with decision moments may significantly alter choice outcomes.A third study explores the long-term impact of early-life stress on decisions involving anticipated regret. By analyzing choices in scenarios where future regret is weighed, the research suggests that individuals with a history of stress may prefer options that minimize potential negative outcomes, indicating a deep-seated inclination to avoid regret. Collectively, these findings illuminate the complex interplay between psychological states and decision-making, revealing both immediate and lasting influences of stress and arousal on how choices are made and preferences are formed.

Biography-Alessandro Gozzi, PhD, is a senior scientist and director of the functional neuroimaging laboratory at the Italian Institute of Technology, in Rovereto, Italy. The Gozzi lab focuses on the study of the functional organization of the mammalian brain at the macroscale. A major goal of Gozzi?s research is to unravel the neural basis and dynamic organization of large-scale functional connectivity as measured with fMRI, and the underpinnings of its disruption in developmental disorders like autism. The Gozzi lab addresses these questions via the combination of cutting-edge functional MRI mapping with genetic and neural manipulations in the living mouse brain. This approach has laid the foundations for a new field of research in which large-scale neuroimaging readouts are used as probe of network activity and dysfunction across species. Abstract-Brain disorders are often associated with disrupted or atypical functional connectivity. However, our ability to decode these signals into interpretable biological or physiological mechanisms remains limited. To fill this knowledge gap, my lab has pioneered methods to map and manipulate intrinsic fMRI connectivity in the mouse brain. In my talk I will illustrate recent examples of the use of this platform to probe the underpinnings of intrinsic fMRI connectivity, and its disruption in brain disorders. Specifically, I will show how cross-species fMRI can help parse fMRI signatures of brain dysfunction into biologically dissociable neurosubtypes. I will then show how these subtypes can be linked to basic physiological mechanisms via the use of chemogenetic manipulations in rodents. These findings contribute to our understanding of the general principles governing fMRI connectivity in the mammalian brain. Importantly, they also support a simple framework whereby fMRI hyper- and hypo-connectivity observed in brain disease counterintuitively reflects reduced and increased interareal activity, respectively. Future extensions of this framework may offer opportunities to physiologically-decode fMRI dysconnectivity in human brain disorders.
