and that’s a wrap on #SfN23!! it was an intense, sometimes overwhelming, but overall really great experience getting to learn about so much cool neuroscience research and meeting the masterminds behind it 🧠 PS. thank you to everyone who stopped by my poster, your interest in my work means a ton!!

how do spiny mice behave when they're left to interact with a large group of novel conspecifics, and how do their brains influence their behavior? come visit my poster during the Social Behaviors poster session on Monday morning at #sfn23 to find out!! :) #neuroskyence #PhDSky
