The Orange Cat Brain Atlas is here. 🧠🐈

Today, we published the first comprehensive cellular map of the orange cat brain. The new atlas reveals a single, specialized neuron responsible for behaviors like staring at walls, knocking objects off tables, and the 3am "zoomies."

This lobby wasn’t just built to impress—it was built to welcome. For 90 years, LA General has served every Angeleno, regardless of their ability to pay. Great architecture. Greater mission. ❤️

1/ After residency at Mass General Hospital, I reported to Atlanta to meet my fellow CDC Epidemic Intelligence Service Officers.

A frank and productive exchange of views with my counterpart on key issues like expanding the global supply of candy and toys and tightening sanctions against chores.

@W_T_Han Any recommendations for more academic/rigorous CN history podcasts or YouTube?

[James T Lee @jtsylee]

@BradSpellberg @G_ROD_11 Also misread as hospital epidemiologist - just wishful thinking on my part 😂. So excited to see ongoing growth at LA County!
