@jestsai thank you! 😁

Excited to share our preprint -- cell lineage analysis using somatic mutations to learn about neuronal cell types and arealization in the human cortex!🧠🧬

[ChrisAWalsh @ChrisAWalsh1]

Turns out development of human cerebral cortex is unlike any animal ever described! Latest work from Sonia Nan Kim (@snk_kim) and twitterless Vinay Viswanadham @peter_j_park lab, using clonal mutations and cell types sampled across human cortex. https://t.co/WAoEy8jXvz A thread.

Excited to share our new paper in @NatureGenetics! Can a mutation really hit the same place twice? We found biallelic mutations across 2,658 cancer genomes that contradict the famous infinite sites assumption and highlight the processes behind them: https://t.co/fsJkGjb23N

The adult zebrafish brain atlas (AZBA) is a new tool for the 3D exploration of adult zebrafish brains. https://t.co/LEC6bMNNrd

Already I feel that 2022 is going to be a much better year.

🎄!

@MChiaraManzini I honestly read that as Moderna and was very confused. (Happy holidays!)

[Sonia N. Kim @snk_kim]

@DExpositoAlonso Thanks & happy holidays! 🎄🥳

[Sonia N. Kim @snk_kim]

I was in a festive mood at lab earlier this week. Happy holidays!

This is my official (formal) holiday "card" for 2020.

[Sonia N. Kim @snk_kim]

I present to you my last Walsh lab tree! Each year I use empty pipet tip boxes to create decorations & this is my favorite tree so far. 🎄

Happy holidays & happy new year! I hope all your reagents & supplies, especially pipet tip orders, get fulfilled in a prompt manner in 2022.

[Sonia N. Kim @snk_kim]

My tree building skills evolved over time

2018 tree:

[Sonia N. Kim @snk_kim]

Decorated my lab bay -- Santa, green neuron tree with glass "vesicle" ornaments, & stockings. Latest addition made possible by last week's library prep: a tree (& gift box) made from empty pipette tip boxes, lab tape, & eppendorf tube labels. Happy holidays!🎄👩‍🔬 #science #PhDlife

@ChrisAWalsh1 Thank you 😊🎄

[Max Heiman @maxwellheiman]

A student who is coming to interview in one of our graduate programs asked me for advice about interviews. So, here is my guidance, in case it's useful. Hopefully others will add their own.

Snowy visit to @Harvard yard. ❄️

Bye for now, John! Hope to see you again in the future.

[Ryoji Amamoto @AmamotoRyoji]

Excited to share our story on the role of RA signaling on cone survival during retinal degeneration! It's been known for decades that cones in the peripheral retina survive longer in rod-cone degeneration mice, but it was unclear why. Here's our attempt:

I wanted to see snow one last time before I leave Boston and I got my wish! ❄️

[Harwell Lab @Harwell_Lab]

Our latest paper is out @eLife! We take a look at the septum, trying to understand how its neuronal diversity is specified during development. @miguel_turrero summarizes the story here:

[Miguel Turrero García @miguel_turrero]

Some good news to start the month: a new paper from us @Harwell_Lab is out today in @eLife! This is our first deep dive into the septum - you can find it here: https://t.co/TNajfZZI0X, and/or read a small thread below describing what we did (1/10)
