Megan Edwards

PhD student in the Cooke lab @MRC_CNDD 🧠 🧬 learning more about learning and memory 🧐

[Wolfson SPaRC @WolfsonSPaRC]

Our team visited @WellingtonLBTH for Science Week to teach them about the brain, nerves and neurons! We had a great time and hope that your students enjoyed their lessons as well!

Yesterday I finally managed to gather 𝗛𝘂𝗮𝗻𝗴*, 𝗛𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘆𝗺𝗮𝗻* & 𝗘𝗱𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀, and the sun decided to join us as we celebrated their paper with some bubbles 🍾🌞
We can't share the champers with you, but their paper is here for everyone to enjoy

In our lab every day is #InternationalWomensDay , yet today offers a special occasion to pause and celebrate the remarkable young women with whom I am privileged to poke at the brain*🧠and eat all the food*🍜🥐🥗🍕🍛

[Megan Edwards @meg1edwards]

Beyond excited to see the work from my undergraduate research project published 🥳
Starting to feel like a real scientist 👩‍🔬

[Elisa Galliano @eg_neuro]

📢The lab's 2nd paper is out in #eNeuro @SfNJournals w/ associated dataset🥳

If you are keen on plasticity in vision, audition, olfaction check out @Liii_Huang Fran Hardyman & @meg1edwards's work on deprivation-induced changes in precortical areas

First MRes rotation compete! Thanks to @RobertHindges and @pheereynolds for introducing me to all things zebrafish over the past few months 🐠🧬

[Katie Long @KatieRLong]

As part of the @MRC_CNDD PhD programme, I run a workshop with the rotation PhD students on science and social media. This year we had a great discussion about communicating our science to wider audiences, and one of our students is doing that already - welcome Megan @meg1edwards!

Looking for #neuroscience reading material? These five got you covered with 2 new preprints📜🧠

➡️Dopaminergic heterogeneity in midbrain and olfactory bulb https://t.co/3pgD6Ye2Z2

➡️Plasticity induced by visual, auditory, olfactory deprivation https://t.co/551pDvftd2

[Megan Edwards @meg1edwards]

Super excited to have contributed to this preprint 🤩

[Elisa Galliano @eg_neuro]

Oops, we did it again🤭
Last week we had fun posting about #dopamine, but if you’d rather read about #plasticity in vision👀 audition👂 & our beloved olfaction👃, read our lab’s 2nd preprint on deprivation-induced changes in pre-cortical areas

And so it ends! An amazing finale for an unforgettable 3 years 🤩

[Churchill College @ChurchillCol]

A very warm welcome to the newest members of our alumni community as they celebrate the end of their studies today! Keep in touch and come back for reunion dinners 😍 #CambridgeAlumni @Cambridge_Uni

First poster session = ✅

[Elisa Galliano @eg_neuro]

Slam dunk for our @meg1edwards today: lab meeting progress report AND departmental poster presentation 💪 Added bonus: all in a lovely teal shade 💙💚

[Elisa Galliano @eg_neuro]

Last lab meeting of term, @meg1edwards has learned some killer design skills from our resident minimalist @Liii_Huang 🎨😹

[Elisa Galliano @eg_neuro]

New academic year, new lab photo!
Halloween-themed offering🎃, with @SanaGadiwalla playing the ghost👻of students past and whispering terrifying things ("but is that stats correct?") from Iceland, while we ate all the labmeeting breakfast & @AilieMcwhinnie's brain cupcakes🧁

[Elisa Galliano @eg_neuro]

This week we welcomed final-year undegrad student Megan Edwards✨, who joined the lab to work on dopaminergic plasticity 🧠 and share our coffee addiction ☕️

Be like Megan, come work with us! Two days left to apply to join the https://t.co/By99GbyXgr as a postdoc⤵️
