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

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?
@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.
@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.
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.
#SfN21 poster presenters are currently unable to access Cadmium to upload presentations. We regret the inconvenience.
In light of the technical difficulty, the deadline for submitting poster presentation materials has been extended to Tuesday, November 2, 2021, 11:59pm EDT.
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
