@_ElizabethOlivo presented her work on ultramicroelectrode stimulation at the brain initiative meeting! Congratulations on your first poster presentation, and awesome work!! @OttoKev

[Savannah Dewberry @LSavDewberry]

I defended on 3/31! Thanks to @OttoKev ‘s lab and @OrthoBME_Lab !

Hot off the press -- Check out our latest paper!

Did you know that nerve fibers (aka axons) in smaller fascicles have lower thresholds?

[Kyle Allen @OrthoBME]

Our lab has a post-doc opening! Direct message me or email me if you’d like to learn more. Our team is broadly interested in chronic musculoskeletal pain and joint diseases, like osteoarthritis.

Every time @OttoKev reminds me to “celebrate submissions” instead of waiting and only celebrating acceptances.

Reminder to myself: Don’t worry over things that’s out of my control #AcademicTwitter

When I close my laptop after a writing session I give it two quick gentle pats to let it know it did a good job. What robots do you subconsciously treat like pets?

So happy for our NPRlab seniors @ErynSanAn @IsobaMelissa! Also shoutout to their mentors @ScottThourson , @HakimianHunter , and @OttoKev .

@metaphorician @slava__bobrov Those are all really good questions!! First, yeah I think those are clusters of neurons. This is in vitro (in a culture not in a brain). Neurons act differently in different environments in response to things like voltage gradients and signaling factors from other neurons/glia.

[Savannah Dewberry @LSavDewberry]

@metaphorician @slava__bobrov From the YouTube video description: “The neural cells each contain a bright spot, which is a nucleus.” These are moving too slowly to be electrical impulses (called action potentials). You can’t visually see action potentials without something like a voltage-sensitive dye.

@Sean_Amezcua @slava__bobrov From the description of the YouTube video: “15 min between images shown at 32fps = 8 hours per second”

[Savannah Dewberry @LSavDewberry]

Really great career panel to close out a great first neuroelectronic interfaces GRS! Useful insights into building relationships with mentors, supporting and being supported by your connections, and being the best at happiness through helpfulness ∩ selfishness.

Feeling lonely, come ask me about KHFAC and NP-induced radiculopathy at poster 1832 #ORS2022

@OttoKev what you should have done

Favorite costume ever bc it brings the work home and its a family affair.

@ScottThourson has been an inspiration to many people, including myself. What a great workshop!

[Scott Thourson @ScottThourson]

Warmed my heart to see so many engineering students attend my workshop! It takes guts just to be open about our learning differences. We need more students who think differently in engineering!! ⁦@FAMUFSUCOE⁩ ⁦@UFBME⁩ ⁦@E2ENational⁩ https://t.co/6zmqphpHeF

I meant poster session…

[Savannah Dewberry @LSavDewberry]

Great booster session this morning at #BMES2021
