#AGMaternal reunion at #FENSForum in sunny Barcelona @alicesanson.bsky.social ☀️Another great FENS meeting with stimulating discussions, excellent science, and the chance to reconnect with colleagues working on the maternal brain and behaviour. We're leaving with lots of new ideas to follow up on! 🧠

Looking back at our wonderful symposium "Neurobiology of Socio-emotional dysfunctions" in Regensburg. Happy to share new insights from my maternal brain research as part of @agmaternal.bsky.social and connect with inspiring researchers. One of the highlights was our trip to Kloster Weltenburg.

Interested in the adaptations of the maternal brain? If you missed them, check out our recent works on the Nucleus Accumbens and the role of neuropeptides in maternal behavior! 🐁🧠 And stay tuned, more is on the way 🙋‍♀️ 1) doi.org/10.1016/j.ne... 2) doi.org/10.1101/2024... @agmaternal.bsky.social

Long story about the nucleus accumbens in short: - Infusion of CRF, UCN3 or oxytocin antagonist in the shell impaired maternal aggression - Oxytocin release increased during maternal aggression 👇🧵👇 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Pup defence in lactating rats: The underlying neuropeptide signalling and their interactions in the nucleus accumbens shell

Maternal aggression is a core feature of rodent maternal behaviour to defend their offspring from potential threats and is modulated by corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) and oxytocin (OXT) systems ...
