Very exciting international workshop: “Epigenetic Regulation of Acquired Behaviors in Health and Disease” Baeza, 29 Sep to 1 Oct 2026 Looking forward to seeing many neuroepigeneticists! The registration deadline is 6 Sep. www.unia.es/estudios-y-a...

Workshop Epigenetic Regulation of Acquired Behaviors in Health and Disease
Extension of registration fees deadline:  6th September 2026Over the past decades, neuroscientists have uncovered many of the molecular and cellular mechanisms that enable animals to adapt their behavior to environmental cues and past experiences, including key processes underlying learning and long-term memory. Among these, epigenetic mechanisms have emerged as a powerful and still largely unexplored substrate for enduring behavioral change. This workshop will examine the role of epigenetic mechanisms in neural plasticity and brain function, with particular emphasis on their contribution to behavior and neuropsychiatric disorders.The workshop will first address the molecular and cellular foundations of memory storage and cognition in the healthy brain, then turn to clinical perspectives, including the basis of memory disorders. In this way, it will highlight both the mechanisms that govern memory formation and erasure in the normal brain and those involved in neurological and psychiatric disease.Beyond its biomedical relevance, the workshop will bring together internationally recognized researchers using complementary approaches to study the molecular basis of behavior, including molecular genetics, electrophysiology, behavioral analysis, optogenetics, and noninvasive imaging.WORKSHOP_Epigenetic

We just posted a new preprint on a microRNA (miRNA)-responsive CRISPR guide RNA: the cuffed guide RNA (cgRNA).   Here’s what we did 🧵 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Please RP! Excited to share our new preprint: “Single-cell chromatin tracing reveals multimodal molecular programs during memory formation” We built a single-cell multiomic atlas of aversive learning and used it to trace memory-linked molecular programs. doi.org/10.64898/202...

Registration is still open for the Young PI Neuroscience Symposium. Whether you're a young PI or a "seasoned" postdoc, you can never invest too much in building community; especially in, let’s say, turbulent times. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out.

In summary, we established whole-genome, multimodal single-cell history tracing, applicable to a wide range of experimental systems. Our lab is now applying HisTrac to study id specification and plasticity (e.g., memory) and we look forward to sharing exciting results soon!
