Congrats to Cyril on this very cool first, first author publication 🏆! This started when he was a bachelor's student (and he's now completing his masters!).

And many thanks to my other awesome co-authors🙏

Distinct Proteomic Brain States Underlying Long-Term Memory Formation in Aversive Operant Conditioning Long-term memory (LTM) formation relies on de novo protein synthesis; however, the full complement of proteins crucial to LTM formation remains unknown in any system. Using an aversive operant conditi...

Pleased to announce that one of my first-author PhD works has been recently published in the Journal of Proteome Research! We used #proteomics to identify signalling pathways associated with successful long-term memory formation in the snail Lymnaea stagnalis. Read more: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

All that energy spent on memory when some of us just want to forget. So overrated.
