Acidification of synaptic vesicles is needed for transmitter uptake so vesicle release acidifies the cleft at some synapses. But a JN Journal Club by @peterniesman & @valesilvamo describes work by @MacleodLab & @RendenLab showing alkinization at larval NMJ

[Tyler Hill @ScienceTylerJ]

Hey! I'm Tyler, a fourth year PhD candidate at Brandeis University. As a member of the @SenguptaLab, I'm interested in the relationship between brain connectivity/function and behavior, specifically studying thermosensation in C. elegans! #BlackInNeuroRollCall #BlackInNeuroWeek

Hi 👋🏿 I’m Sama, a presidential postdoc fellow in the @MurthyLab at @PrincetonNeuro studying the neural basis of multitasking in Drosophila ✊🏿👨🏿‍🔬🕵🏿‍♂️🧠

#BlackInNeuroWeek #BlackNeuroRollCall hey y’all, I’m Dr. Raf Perez, I’m a Postdoc at @Yale studying brain-body interactions in opioid tolerance and I’m passionate about addiction. I also love traveling, art, sci-fi, fantasy and all things nerdy.

[Tariq M. Brown, Ph.D. @TariqMHSBrown]

I'm Tariq, a PhD candidate at Brown University. I'm interested in using fruit flies to look at how alcohol-induced alternative splicing in memory cells changes behavior and neural activity.

I have an interneuron joke but nobody understands it

[Ubadah Sabbagh @neubadah]

I have a thalamus joke, but I'm not sure how to relay it.

[Peter Niesman @peterniesman]

Helpful for scientific publishing, too. The whole series is really nice

[Peter Niesman @peterniesman]

@duane_g_watson Without the raw data I tried to reanalyze Hoppe and I think it’s clear that decisions in the gray zone significantly contribute, but that differences in impact score are larger. Would love to see the new analysis and raw data

BAcTrace, the retrograde tracer we have been waiting for?

By #preLighter @peterniesman on preprint from @SebaCachero @gsxej & co. with thoughtful author's response

[Peter Niesman @peterniesman]

Their twitter thread describing their work is here https://t.co/3eaMRjfGqd

[Greg Jefferis @gsxej]

#BAcTrace, a #tweeprint: At least since Francis Crick’s famous review of 1979, neuroscientists have dreamed of ways to identify all the neurons connected to a cell of interest. In the last decade this has become a reality through the widespread use of rabies virus tracers. 1/11

[Peter Niesman @peterniesman]

I wrote a prelight on a nice preprint by @SebaCachero from @gsxej on their newly developed retrograde tracer. Definitely something the field could use. https://t.co/dWnRkm2I9T

[Peter Niesman @peterniesman]

The best thing I have read over the last month was written 6 years ago. Worth reading again and again. https://t.co/Qsj704Albg

Filipa's paper out! The malaria parasite has an intrinsic clock https://t.co/B4ZqG88trI

[Dr. Robert W. Fernandez @latinodeciencia]

My doctoral thesis research on mapping all 26 neurotransmitter GPCRs in the C. elegans egg-laying circuit is up on @biorxiv_neursci!

I'm proud of the Neurotransmitter GPCR Atlas team, especially the two undergraduates Kim and Erin, who spearheaded this project w/ me! #Koellelab

Here’s @jennpelly on Fiona Apple’s perfect “Fetch the Bolt Cutters.” An instant classic by an artist whose music is a shot of adrenaline (!), whose writing compels you to laugh through the brutal pain!

@PratherLab Ever read this old bracket Rembert Browne did? https://t.co/5galxJZ07R

Good use of 20 minutes
