Returning home from HHMI NEWS #GilliamFellows conference full of infinite love and appreciation for this wonderful community of brilliant, passionate, and diverse individuals. What a privilege it is to call you all my peers. The future of science is bright!

Had a wonderful time at the HHMI Gilliam meeting. I am honestly so grateful to be part of such a supportive community of future leaders. Made some friends, got some swag, and l left inspired 😊

with biomedical PhD apps due soon, I get a lot of requests for help/advice this time of year. From my own experiences and including others' resources, I made this guide that I use to lead workshops, but also stands alone as a resource. Please share! yaelcourtney.com/phdapplication…

Shamelessly dropping in from a long hiatus to plug our most recent preprint, in which we show a function for the necroptotic kinase RIPK3 in modulating neurotransmission (independently of necroptosis!). Congrats to first author Irving Estevez! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

It’s bittersweet to witness the evolution of my undergrad. Graduation nears it's inspiring to see how much Ben has grown into a remarkable scientist and a genuinely wonderful person. As he moves forward into his own PhD journey, I feel both proud and hopeful for his new adventure

It’s Gilliam Day!!!! Massive congratulations to all new 50 fellows. Excited to meeting you all soon!

⭐️ Big news! HHMI is investing $300+ million in 26 new #HHMIInvestigators from 19 US institutions. These top scientists will drive groundbreaking research in diverse fields, from neuroscience to immunology to structural biology & beyond. Welcome to HHMI! hhmi.news/4df2eVs

So excited for our superstar undergrad Nithik to receive the Society for Neuroscience (SfN) TPDA. He will present his work on top-down modulation of arousal states by the ACC. See you in Chicago!!
