Join us for an upcoming webinar featuring Dr. Brenton Laing, Assistant Professor of Pharmacology at the University of Mississippi, as he explores the causes and consequences of anterior hypothalamic area (AHA) activity in survival behaviors. Dr. Laing’s research focuses on the brain circuits that regulate threat-related responses, particularly how these mechanisms become dysregulated in stress and substance misuse. In this webinar, he will discuss the electrophysiological properties of fast-spiking AHA parvalbumin neurons and their role in behavioral adaptations to threats. What you will learn: How the hypothalamus controls survival behaviors Key electrophysiological properties of AHA neurons The relationship between AHA activity and behavioral responses to threats Date: March 25, 2025 from 10-11am EST Register here: https://lnkd.in/e_qgQxPh #PrecisionaryInstruments #compresstome #microtomes #vibratingmicrotomes #vibratomes #tissuesectioning #precisioncuttissuesslices #tissueslicing #laboratoryequipment #labsolutions

Choosing the right tissue sectioning tool is crucial for successful immunohistochemistry (IHC) experiments. Should you use a vibratome, rotary microtome, or cryostat? Each has unique strengths and applications, depending on your research needs. In our latest blog, "Understanding Immunohistochemistry Tools: Comparing Vibratomes, Rotary Microtomes, and Cryostats," we break down: Vibratomes: Ideal for preserving 3D tissue structures in live or thick sections. Rotary Microtomes: Perfect for ultra-thin sections and long-term paraffin storage. Cryostats: Best for frozen tissue with preserved antigenicity and rapid sectioning. Discover how each tool can help you achieve precise, reliable results for your IHC studies and learn which one is right for your lab.
