Thank you to @MPFNeuro for inviting me to present my research as part of their NeuroMEETS seminar series. It was a delight to meet with the brilliant scientists at all career stages. Truly a special community with groundbreaking science!

Bye bye Berlin! Bye bye #glia2023

This has been an amazing meeting. I loved seeing so many friends and to see how the glia community keeps growing and advancing in understanding how our brain works.

Looking forward to the next one!

Each dot is an Australian COVID death. Must be my eyesight but I am really struggling to see when COVID was over. The only white space I can see was when we were in lockdown, which history is now rewriting to say wasn’t necessary @CroakeyNews

FlipGFP: a GFP-based protease reporter that achieves 100-fold fluorescence increase upon protease activation. It is designed by flipping a beta strand of GFP. FlipGFP visualizes caspase activity and apoptosis in Drosophila and zebrafish. Thanks @J_A_C_S! https://t.co/xCWAwRANwj

🐦I wrote a piece about the movement to stop naming animals after people--and to remove existing eponyms.

It's a story about righting science's historical wrongs, but also about reconsidering the responsibilities inherent in naming things. 1/

@kericuthriell sorry for your loss 💀

In case you missed it: Women are less likely to be credited for their scientific contributions than men. It’s true across multiple fields & at all stages, with important repercussions for career progress. #WomenInSTEM #WomenInMedicine #MedTwitter

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. In our new @Nature paper, Darrin Schultz @conchoecia used the position of genes on chromosomes to show that ctenophores (comb jellies) not sponges are the sister-group to all other animals. https://t.co/LCSHC1AbRu

. @WUSTLmed charged the student $100K for quitting after being coerced into sex, while @jonykipnis got @theNAMedicine, some bad PR, and lower attendance in journal club. What justice…

I am really digging this Social Verification Theory review. An umbrella theory that seems to simultaneously explain sexual minority stress and social norms explanations for LGBTQ substance use. https://t.co/wU41QJtBjx
