How many synapses can you detect in a single Field of View? The answer is many😊. Here we have a 7plex image with 450 Synapses imaged with SUM-PAINT @Jungmannlab, that I am excited to share with you. Happy #FluorescenceFriday

Excited to share our new preprint! 1/5 In humans and mice, we studied the impacts of psychedelics in the days/weeks after a trip. What we found amounts to a sort of stop-&-smell-the-roses effect. A neural basis for the afterglow. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Today we've launched our book "Atlas of Fourier Transforms". It has been a two year passion project led by Miti Shah, a student in our lab. It is uniquely comprehensive and suitable as a coffee table book or advanced research reference. The full pitch is on Kickstarter.

Piece of history - a Cornell University alum shared a photo of Corson-Mudd Hall (Neurobio & Behavior) being built in 1982. Weill Hall, where my lab and Cornell BME are at, would rise from the location of the dirt pile below.

Bittersweet last day physically in the Alex Kwan 關進晞 lab! 🥹 Been lovely to have the best desk with a view of the building where I began research a decade ago (Corson-Mudd Hall Neurobio & Behavior Bass Lab Cornell ♥️) PhD defense in Sept! 👀

Inhibitory neurons in Sncg-Flp mouse, stained by summer student Athena Li-Wu. Her results show that these cells in the frontal cortex (green) are CCK+ (red) and PV-, like their hippocampal counterparts. #FluorescenceFriday #scicomm #microscopy

Been awhile (12 years?!) since I did a double Gaussian fit for a V1 neuron... 🙏 U.S. National Science Foundation CRCNS for making available the fun data set of neurons responding to drifting bars --> going to be problem set 1 for my Cornell BME Intro to Neurotech course next semester 📝

What does the awake brain look like after morphine injection?... I can't stop watching this mesmerizing complex and stereotypic correlation structure... More in our preprint 👇 #fUS #neuroimaging #pharmacology #braindynamics

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…

I am so stoked to share that my first first-author paper is out! We explored the interesting and mysterious claustrum, using qPCR, RNAscope, and electrophysiology to probe the role of serotonin and psychedelics in claustrum signaling to the anterior cingulate cortex🧵⬇️
