For New Professor, Hearing Research Is Personal
Julia Huyck studies why making sense of sound can be difficult, especially for neurodiverse people, and brings a personal connection to the research.

It's really nice when people actually use software that you create. This is an updated usage figure for the MRIQC.org Web API showing continued usage for the last 7 years, with more than half a million unique BOLD images in BIDS datasets! If you aren't already using MRIQC, check it out!

Brain microscopy with annotations for better understanding ☺️! What if we take a deep dive into the cerebral sulcus? The grey matter has the neurons' cell bodies🔵, and while microglia🟣are more evenly distributed, astrocytes🟡 shape changes in the white matter. #Neuroscience #Microscopy 🧠🔬

This is one of the most consequential papers on accessibility for surgical discipline residents with hearing loss - journals.lww.com/academicmedi... The supplementary information is even more informative. Should be compulsory reading for all surgical residency program directors.

How do neurons know their final position in the brain? They use a combination of chemical signals & physical guidance by radial glia 🟡. My favorite cell type in the brain is also temporary! After cortical development, most will transform into astrocytes. Nuclei of cells in🔵 #SciArt #Microscopy

Having a difficult day, but I'm glad to have microscopy to inspire me and hopefully inspire others as well. 💔 The brain keeps being amazing. These are neurons in the neocortex #FluorescenceFriday 🔬
