Eve Marder’s career advice, from my first MIT seminar:

“Extracting something new from the universe is really hard. The salient thing is whether you like physically doing something or whether you just like learning about it. ... you need extraordinary amounts of patience.”

These are astonishing results in weight loss. 24.% weight loss at 48 weeks. Average loss of 58 pounds. Blows out of the water everything else we've seen so far.

Doyeon Kim asked: how can we map all the synapses which got potentiated during a particular memory formation? i.e., what is the shape of a memory?

Congratulations to The Brain Prize winners of 2023: Professors Michael Greenberg, Christine Holt and @erin_schuman.
They have done pioneering work on molecular mechanisms of brain development and plasticity

Last year 25 female biotech CEOs gathered for the first time. This year we’ve doubled to 50 (!) and I’m feeling so inspired after spending the weekend with this group of badass women who are redefining what it means to be a leader. This is what the future of biotech looks like👇

Spatial epigenome–transcriptome co-sequencing🤩🤩🤩Beyond excited to see it out today @Nature! Enjoyable collaboration between my lab @YaleBME @YaleSEAS @YaleMed and @GoCasteloBranco of @karolinskainst. The most informative tool for spatial multi-omics!!

Really excited to share some of my PhD work @NatureNeuro! This story was and will continue to be a rollercoaster of emotions. Big thanks to @martinavilah @yyzhang12 and our collaborators. Without their help none of this would have been possible.

[Kristina E. Kitko @kekitko]

@meschro @neubadah Congratulations!! So well deserved.

[Ritchie Chen @ritchie_chen]

We’re excited to extend noninvasive optogenetics beyond the brain to address a nearly 150-year-old question in a new study out today @Nature:

Work led by @HsuehBrian, myself, and @KarlDeisseroth, with an amazing team in the D-lab and many others!

[Rong Fan @RongFan8]

Thrilled to see our new paper out in @NatureBiotech . Spatial-CITE-seq: spatially resolved co-indexing of transcriptome and epitopes for multi-omics sequencing. Big shoutout to Yang Liu, my former postdoc @YaleBME and now assistant professor of pathology and neurology @YaleMed !

@Craggs_Lab Oscar’s! - I’m in SD monthly and always grab a mixed fish ceviche and the fish of the day

[Olson Lab @DEOlsonLab]

Check out our latest paper in @ScienceMagazine about the mechanism of #psychedelic-induced neuroplasticity. Fantastic collaboration between @UCDavisIPN labs @DEOlsonLab, @LinTianPhD, @johnalangray, as well as @MccorvyL!

Here’s a shout out to all the women & girls in #STEM. May you be free to pursue your curiosity & always feed supported to do so.

We looked at the proteomic diversity of 18 different synapse-types! Check out what we found in the preprint below 👇Big thanks to my co-authors from @erin_schuman lab at @MpiBrain and @snsf_ch for support. #TeamMassSpec
