This is an electron microscopy image of a sciatic nerve showing the myelin and axons... I’ve been thinking of making it a wallpaper of some kind?

Science is art. Nerve Fibers and Schwann Cells in the Sciatic Nerve.

Shout out to our lab member @MollieMarr for organizing to keep #MCAT students safe!

[Londyn Robinson, MD @londyloo]

FYI to Portland premeds taking @AAMC_MCAT MCAT on Thursday in Fox Tower, @MollieMarr helped organize volunteers to escort students to and from exam.

A motorcade also volunteered to help.

You shouldn’t be taking exam until midnight downtown Portland. #PDXprotests
