My kids loved receiving their books in the mail every month, and it's bittersweet for our youngest to be aging out of this 0-5 years program soon. What an amazing legacy. Thank you Dolly

So glad the weather cleared up in time for #WalkMS in Nashville this morning! Our lab is grateful for the support the National MS Society provides for MS research and for all individuals who volunteer for our studies. 🧡 events.nationalmssociety.org/index.cfm?fu...

Why should the public care about the freeze on the NIH? Aside from the need for scientific pursuits to make our society better… -For every dollar we invest in NIH research, there is a $2.5 return. -Research dollars help fund universities that employ non-academics. (1/)

I'm pretty convinced that pregnancy/motherhood destroyed my brain. My student Sabine is investigating this, but N=1 no good apparently🤷‍♀️. Looking for 18-45yo women either a) never pregnant b) pregnant now/within past 3 years. info: forms.gle/2Lpgn6upPRxJ...

#HiSciSky #WomenInSTEM #AcademicSky I'm an assistant professor at Vanderbilt interested in improving quantitative MRI methods for the spinal cord. Currently focusing on translational spinal cord MRI research for multiple sclerosis and other neurological diseases. Still trying to figure out BlueSky 🙃
