Finally made it here to SfN! After handing me the name card, the madam asked me “Is this your first time?” I said yeah then got a badge with first-time attendee. Cute! Just can’t wait to enjoy this conference that I’ve been looking forward to for several years!

@kevinksit @GoardMichael I see. Thanks a lot! Looking forward to further discussion in the future.😉

Happy #WomenInScience Day!
Update the "opening dinner of the new year" with my roommates: the 3 female researchers closest to me!🥰
I've just had a fulfilling spring festival holiday and have been back to labwork for several days. Feeling pretty good after the short break😆

Want spatial co-expression relationships of dozens of genes in a continuous, thick tissue volume containing tens of 1000s of cells? See our study in @CellCellPress with @TillbergPaul by @HHMIJanelia Multi-FISH team and 1st author @WangYuhan01. https://t.co/nkUOmZnJdh

Had a wonderful conference experience last weekend!
I was very excited to listen to so many cutting-edge and important works and get the answer to my own scientific questions. Happy birthday to McGovern Institute at PKU! It's my pleasure to be here getting scientific training.

We've just discussed this paper in a journal club. Thanks to the excellent presentation by the senior graduate student focus on the computational part in our group, I finally got to understand the detailed algorithm of the computational models. An important milestone to me! 😆

A great model of decoding! Brings methods and insights to population coding👍

Really beautiful!!🤩Always hoping to see the work on the cooperative neuron coding of information.

New issue is out! https://t.co/ImgPc6z4Dp

With a neural symphony on the cover, illustrating a study showing that place & non-place cells in the hippocampus can represent a mouse's position, speed & direction of movement using a distributed neural code

Liqun Luo on the payoff for taking on the massive role of writing a Neuroscience textbook: “All of the research projects in my lab have been influenced by my textbook writing. Some are direct products of ideas that were formulated while working on the textbook.”

[The Kavli Prize @KavliPrize]

Congratulations to David Julius and Ardem Patapoutian, the 2020 #KavliPrize laureates in #neuroscience, for discovering sensory receptors for temperature and pressure, as well as pain.

Very glad to be involved in this JC and get into a significant field which I was unfamiliar with. I did learn a lot from you brilliant senior students, for both knowledge and skills. (And I was also very impressed by the skill of "twitter scholar".😹)

[Xinming Tu @TuXinming]

In this jc, I am talking about the computational methods for Spatial Transcriptomics! Thanks to my teammates for other parts including experimental technologies and the application! @jiahui_penny @QiliangLai @xiaosuyu1997

[Youran Yang 杨悠然 @yang_youran]

I have listened to Dr. Sanes' talk about their work and also have discussed the specific paper of scRNA-seq of fovea in class. Farsighted work! Best wishes for Dr. Peng.
