This year has been bumpy on so many aspects but the continuous support of @katepeters3.bsky.social and this little research trip in Canada have been the highlight!

I am attending the #FENS2026 forum in Barcelona next July. And I am over the moon that our symposium with @borglandlab.bsky.social, Serge Luquet and @dr-ahorstmann.bsky.social on "Neurobiological mechanisms on the cognitive control of feeding in the modern food environment" was accepted!

Spent the last two days as an observer on different grant panel boards. First the MRC @ukri.org then the @wellcometrust.bsky.social .
Enriching and genuinely very informative experience I would recommend especially for young PIs.

How does environmental enrichment affect food seeking? We show reduced cue evoked food seeking following just 24hrs of EE accompanied by cell type specific alterations in the mPFC as well as important contributions of a sucrose cue ensemble #fridayscience
