Exciting topics, state of the art approaches, and most importantly inspiring and highly generous mentor ! Do not miss 👇

I have one important takeaway to share after four days in Boston: the Green Line is the most dysfunctional rail line I have ridden in my entire life. I can’t believe it is real.

i do genuinely think that each broadcast network -- and maybe streamers, too -- should have an hourlong program that's just....a little boring and thinky, a single interview. unclear how or why streaming or mobile would do this, but we go a little crazy without this stuff.

Yeah Olú!!!!!

instead of working on my defense slides I'm graphing my average sleep by week this year and looking for patterns... no clear patterns to my eye but not a bad yearly average (for me), and trending up!

Looking forward to Season 5 of #NINDSNervePod? We'll be talking all about science communication! Ya'el Courtney got advice from social media and now she's sharing it with you: "Share Your Research!" #NINDSDemystifies Listen to Season 4 Episode 1 now: buzzsprout.com/558574/13090896

Excited to share our storiesofWiN special episode about Society for Neuroscience (SfN) Annual Meeting. After attending 10 times and too often being overwhelmed, I share a lot of useful advice for how to make the most of your SfN meeting. open.spotify.com/episode/552qpA…

Astrocytes (red) and microglia (green) in the mouse corpus callosum Just a cell phone picture of the confocal microscope’s attached computer screen, don’t come for the quality please 😅. Wanted to share something pretty I saw this week. #FluorescenceFriday

I am among those suing the state of Florida to end the state's unconstitutional and deeply unamerican banning of books. The removal of my books (and so many others) from hundreds of libraries is a despicable attack on intellectual freedom in the U.S. cfpublic.org/education/2024…

Just did a full dress rehearsal, in the space, for my PhD defense seminar tomorrow! T minus 24 hours, ahhhhhh 🎊🧠 just have to cut 15 minutes off the time 😅

This is fine BUT here's another idea: We get rid of the limit on liquor licenses altogether, throw a bone to the current license holders, and allow Boston to make decisions about nightlife with full autonomy, like any other city.

I’m overjoyed to announce that my K99/R00 proposal has been funded by The National Institute on Aging (NIA) as of today!! I am very excited about the project which is a collaboration with Lehtinen Lab to study the blood-CSF barrier with new analytical tools I’ve developed in the Gygi Lab. Feeling grateful!!

We’re hiring at U of Utah Department of Neurobiology! I've truly enjoyed working in this dynamic and supportive department. This is an amazing place to start a lab as a new faculty! Please consider applying and feel free to DM me with any questions. utah.peopleadmin.com/postings/170290
