Got it right, the neurons are then like toddlers, and astrocytes are the parents. But as toddlers think that the world turns around them, neurons make us believe that they are the important ones.

Sharing this great opportunity of working with the amanzing Marcelo A. Mori in a very interesting project relating to Alzheimer's disease, in collaboration with Eduardo Zimmer Zimmer Lab and myself. Please RT! If you're interested, apply! If you have any questions, reach out.

Interesting in brain energy metabolism? Check out the special issue of Journal of Neurochemistry dedicated just to that topic! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/toc/10.111… Whole host of great papers 🤓🤓🤓

I can't let this go. I get very annoyed when established researchers that we ask for support in DEI efforts tell me to make sure I focus on research. That research is the most important thing. This common comment tells me multiple things. A thread (1/9)

Dear #Scitwitter. I'm working on a project to boost the visibility of female scientists whose contributions have been seemingly "forgotten" (Matilda effect) - we have some, but I'm certain we are missing many - suggestions? Particularly interested in #LatAm scientists 👩‍🔬 Thanks!

We are doing everything we can to keep the prices affordable for our first in-person #AstrocyteCafe! Register by April 30th if you want to save some money, registration cost will increase after that date.

Non-TT yet, but another take: get a partner that, like mine, is happy doing his share of cleaning the toilet, prepping the food, and putting the kids to bed.

And that is the wrap-up of #ASN2024. I have a wonderful time seeing old friends and meeting new ones and leave tired but excited about testing new hypotheses. Bye bye #Portland

It’s over a year from now, but all neuroscientists should think about attending the ASN-ISN meeting in summer 2025 in NYC. The meeting includes top neurobiology labs and many great opportunities for early career researchers. There will be everything from lipid metabolism in the

I often talk about how important I think it is to end Reimbursement culture and it’s obvious that some people don’t understand how transformative that could be in graduate education and retention of UR individuals. So, let’s talk: (1/n)

Very excited to share that our book, Astrocyte-Neuron Interactions in Health and Disease, is now available for pre-order and will be released in physical format on September 28, 2024🎉 Thank you to all who contributed their expertise and passion!🙏🏽 link.springer.com/book/10.1007/9…
