The 11th annual retreat for the NIDA Center of Excellence for Genetics, Genomics, and Epigenetics of Substance Use Disorders in Outbred Rats was held on Thursday, November 20, 2025 at the University of California San Diego.

Thank you to all who attended in person and remotely, and thank you to the session speakers and poster presenters! We hope you found the talks and discussions informative and made connections with new HS rats colleagues.

A new R21 grant from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) was awarded to Dr. Marsida Kallupi, with Dr. Abraham Palmer as co-investigator. 

The 2-year grant is titled “Enhancing Addiction Severity Prediction by Modulating GABAergic Activity in the Central Amygdala of RATTACA Rats” and it will start July 15, 2025 and end on June 30, 2027.

Congratulations!

The Palmer Lab ran a booth at Neuroscience 2024 in Chicago featuring our RATTACA project.

The conference was held at the McCormick Place Convention Center from October 5-9, 2024.
