When post-vaccination Delta breakthrough infections do occur, they are much shorter in duration (and less potential for spread) than in unvaccinated people.

"For the first time, I began to question the academic career path I was on."

In this week's #ScienceWorkingLife, a scientist took his career in an unexpected direction after weighing the realities of pursuing an academic career path. https://t.co/bl5rMUTIgr

Just submitted my #SfN21 abstract! If you’re submitting work related to whole-brain sensory processing during behavior, there are still spots available in our Linking Group, name: PlumCranberry! 🫐🧠 DM me for more info #neurotwitter #NeuroTwitterNetwork

Today some of the organizers of The Mind Project got to enjoy the sunshine together. ☀️For some of us this was actually the first time we met in person. 🙂We're all super enthusiastic about continuing to work together. 🧠 In the photo w/ us, 1 of our main supporters: caffeine. ☕

@guido_meijer I will cite it in my next paper where I use the mouse brain as an energy-efficient way to mine bitcoin!

Let's mine Bitcoin on a mouse brain!

[Guido Meijer @guido_meijer]

Excited to share my latest findings! I found that single neurons in the mouse brain encoded the price of cryptocurrencies 🪙 Here is a neuron from the visual cortex which shows a highly significant correlation with the Bitcoin price at the time it was recorded.

Functional ultrasound imaging (fUSI) reveals large fluctuations within & across brain regions. @anwarnunez and Michael Krumin found that these fluctuations accurately reflect the underlying neural spikes. With @charureddy @opto_brain_imag @kennethd_harris

@blsabatini @jacksonlab @BrainsRus @jtdudman @csaviochan @nicxtri @StephCragg Is this a female mouse? What if the cre slipped into the X chromosome? It reminds me of a paper from Nathans lab (Wu et al., neuron 2014) where there is a 30 percent chance to have this type of asymmetrical expression due to X inactivation

A very clever design made by @VaziriLab allows modifying a 2p microscope to get 3D images with the speed of a 2D scan. Just decrease the pulse rate of the laser, put a recursive delay and use a FLIM board to record data every 7ns, and voila': 1M neurons!

Everyone who has ever used dual color (red + green) CRE reporter plasmids to study CRE-induced mosaicism knows that when a cell turns yellow, it is basically game over.

With Beatrix from Ratto Lab, we can finally visualize mosaicism in the brain: https://t.co/t4ZWcIQb89

Very excited about this new interdisciplinary working group of Harvard Brain Science Initiative to study brain disorders: The MIND Project

[The MIND Project @GMH_TMP]

Are you an individual at the postdoctoral level at Harvard or any of its affiliates? Interested in disorders of the mind? Then fill out our introductory survey. 🧠

UNPOPULAR OPINION. 99% of my feed is lashing out at this post, but hear me out. The ACTUAL paper is presented as an attempt to replicate known concepts with large-scale quantitative methods. Indeed, the paper addresses its limitations vs. historical linguistics research! 1/8
