“No government—regardless of which party is in power—should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue.” - President Alan Garber https://t.co/6cQQpcJVTd

Scientists, researchers, and advocates recently gathered in Washington, D.C. for the Stand Up for Science rally. Voices from Johns Hopkins and across the globe spoke on the importance of continued investment in scientific progress. https://t.co/JyCEatDoC8

Some scientists in the United States have told Nature that they are considering leaving the country in the wake of widespread disruption to research brought in by the Trump administration

Are you thinking about leaving?

A few years ago I was in a position to do something unique in neuroscience. I had been working with the phenomenal @emilyjacobs on menopause and inspired by @laura_pritschet's menstrual study, and I was planning a pregnancy. What if we scanned my brain??

So two neuroscientists walk into a bar…..While today is full of laughs & pranks, let’s not forgot why you think the jokester of your friend group is actually the funniest. How does our brain know what’s funny & what makes some people more hilarious than others? #AprilFoolsDay 🤣

One of my amazing PhD students, @stacy_pit, was selected to participate in a terrific science communication program at Harvard last summer (ComSciCon). A "general audience" article she wrote there about some of our ongoing research was just published!

*sharing a free resource we've put together!

FreeSurfer does an amazing job at automatically segmenting brain structure. However, manual QC helps to ensure accuracy, especially for brain anatomy that deviates from normative young adult samples (e.g., older adults with atrophy)
