Honored that a piece I wrote made it to NYTimes. It’s about how my mom’s stroke changed my connection to time, science, and nature. What a privilege to honor my mom in Modern Love. Below is a gift link. Let me know your thoughts 🙏🏼 www.nytimes.com/2024/12/20/s...

A #FluorescenceFriday fresh from the microscope! Check these neurons 🟠 opening space to allow a blood vessel to pass between them! Astrocytes🔵 and microglia 🟢 give the shape of the blood vessel, and check the red blood cells 🔴 inside. Isn't the brain pretty? 🔬🧠 Antibodies used in the ALT text!
Markers used: Neurons - orange - SMI32. Microglia - green - IBA1. Astrocytes - blue - GFAP. Red blood cells - red - RBC.

Super huge congrats to postdoc in our group Bernie Mulvey and co-leads Kristen Maynard & @kasperdhansen.bsky.social on this absolute tour de force paper profiling sex differences in the human hypothalamus. Really important biological insight about gene expression differences in sex-biased disorders.

This is a fun reminder of how terrified I was to start my first grad stats class (since my last stats class exposure had been 7 years prior), but then methods wiz MM started us off with the 25 days of Rmas and advent_calendaR is still my working directory folder. 😂🤓 #rstats #PhDSky

This art installation at the North Carolina Museum of Art is fanastic. Each of the swings plays notes from one of four instruments—harp, piano, guitar, and vibraphone.
