If you have loved ones or are concerned with halting Parkinson’s, Alzheimer, cancer, MS, diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and more. @SenKatieBritt @POTUS is NOT the path best taken to save on taxes (or debt) instead of lives. https://t.co/vA0w8WsepO

If these NIH cuts stick -- who knows in this environment -- my whole metro will to be screwed. Not to mention the actual lives affected in a very red state.
Talk about cutting off your nose just for spite.

French husband told me that this is “probably enough butter to make Thanksgiving dinner” and I think I am probably required by French law to report him to the nearest embassy

New @biorxivpreprint from our lab led by @SnehaHegde21 & @souvikmodified

What initiates dynamic actin in axons?
Surprised us: mitochondria are necessary and sufficient for actin trails & touch response!
Dynamic actin (no mitochondria) is sufficient for touch response

Outstanding, Heather! Congratulations to you and your team!

[Dr. Heather Hundley @scientistmomEB]

Cannot say enough positive things about publishing this study in #GENETICS - reviewers gave really important feedback and in a positive manner.

BIG congratulations to the 17th doctoral graduate of The @wormshack_UA, DR. Karolina Willicott!! Nothing is sweeter than seeing her reach this milestone, alongside our NEXT PhD, her loving partner @c_willicott and their F1, Nastia! A little #dopamine goes a long way! @UaDeptBSC

@ctmurphy1 Truly fascinating study, Coleen! Congrats!

[Guy Caldwelll @wormshack_UA]

Indeed @ShorterLab. Combine this with predictive invertebrate and cell models - and both the cost and time to discovery may be greatly shortened. FYI, our former @UaDeptBSC Ph.D. student, Songsong "David" Cao, was VP at @AtomwiseInc, the biotech with this innovative AI strategy.
