@annainthefield What do you use for tagging that isn't shed and yet can be easily visualized? Wizardry

@jimmy26976330 Feeling your pain from across the planet. I once jumped out of a first floor window to save a skink from a cat. I wish cat owners would acknowledge and take responsibility for the damage their pets can do.

@jfmclaughlin92 I've recently started looking for my next no position and keep finding departments with amazing researchers in states outlawing healthcare and personal expression. It is so disheartening. Universities in these states are going to start losing research talent.

Fun side effect of studying neuroscience at Carnegie Mellon: when I enter a new room and forget what I came there for, I shake my head and say "Touretzky" while envisioning the attractor networks in my hippocampus. #neuroscience #NeuroTwitter

Excited to announce the release of a new documentary about #brainscience and #animalresearch with Marmoset #monkeys in my lab at @ESI_Frankfurt!

I am embarrassingly pleased with these 3D printed IHC slide boats we made. They beat the pants off hydrophobic pens or parafilm! #Microscopy #tinyScienceWin
