So proud to have contributed to this project during my time in undergrad! I spent so many hours tracing those tiny processes; very thrilled to see the completed results of the 3D renderings. These 3 astrocytes were rendered from tracing 500, 2D EM images of mouse brain tissue
(Tweeprint 1/4)
Check out our new paper "Ultrastructural view of astrocyte-astrocyte and astrocyte-synapse contacts within the hippocampus" which provides an ultrastructural view of the astrocyte-connectome.

@analiss I don't know you but I'm so proud of you for coming forward with your (terrible and traumatic) experiences. You give those of us who have suffered in silence for years courage to speak out against those who perpetuated that pain.
I honestly miss EM tracing... if anyone has a project I am down to work on it in my free-time for fun... Our publication is in preprint. I worked on some of the pink astrocyte and the orange neuron's dendrite https://t.co/h5zMMkarBg
@chesscom Loving the streams! Learning so much from the commentators- fyi the graphic has Stonepillow (Tubbo's charity) as 2 words but their website/socials show it's one word (:
@mads_moonie @MamaDoctorJones (Or most likely it will be considered safe for the vast majority with a tiny potential for you or your child to have some unintended symptom because of it; most likely pain at injection site, maybe mild nausea or vomiting as those are what tend to impact people from vaccines)
@mads_moonie @MamaDoctorJones the solution is to just not be first in line. Once vaccines become widely distributed, any additional risks that are discovered will be widely reported and your primary care physician would tell you or your child that it is no longer considered safe. 2/2
