Some thoughts on core facilities. 1. These are enormous all-boat lifters if supported well. 2. They should be run by experts who are commensurately valued and supported. This is a career path. Include names on papers if they’ve contributed insight, even if fee-for-service. /1

Excited to see our preview of the great work from Su et al. published in Neuron on how astrocyte endfeet regulate myelination. Their work gives an excellent insight into how astroycte-oligo interactions shape myelination. cell.com/neuron/fulltex… cell.com/neuron/fulltex…

I asked #chatGPT "can you suggest me good reference papers about defects in catalysis?" It gave me 5 papers with titles, author names, journal, vol/page #... Great, no? I checked all and none of these papers exist! It just made up papers with well-known authors from community.

I haven’t tweeted for several months, but this is tremendous! I am deeply honored to receive this distinguished award. Truly grateful for NAS’s recognition of our team science and open science work at Allen Institute !

Super excited to announce that I’ll be starting my lab Duke University this coming Summer! The ACR lab will study how the brain of an animal becomes active for the first time during development, and how this initial activity shapes brain function.

If you liked the sound of this #connectomics course but didn’t have time to apply by the original deadline — good news, the second and final deadline is Mon 17th April. Speaker and project details are being regularly added at cajal-training.org/on-site/connec…. Thanks again for RTs.

Great to have Prof. Stephen Smith back for a one-of-a-kind lecture! An important takeaway: it's about time we got #volumeEM here Stanford University!

For all the electron microscopists out there: the online BioEM Talks this Thursday, May 18th, has an amazing list of speakers on #arraytomography and serial sectioning. - now, if only I could wake up my brain at 6 am to actually follow the talks bioemtalks.org/may18-program

First paper from our lab! So proud of first authors Shahrnaz Kemal Hunter Richardson and team effort from our lab 🤓

It was an absolute pleasure to host Tim Petros Tim Petros from NICHD today at Kavli Neuroscience. Exciting talk and engaging discussion!

Great talk by Jakob Troidl (Harvard VCG) on Visual Computing for Connectomics. Medieninformatik Rgb Universität Regensburg Check out his work: jakobtroidl.github.io

Now out Current Biology. Our work using calcium imaging to study visual processing in the octopus brain! cell.com/current-biolog…

For a belated #EM_Monday, I will share my favorite thing in neurons, the spine apparatus of a pyramidal neuron! The bulk of my postdoctoral work has been on this peculiar organelle. youtu.be/LleCdCtUnLU

=D I'm over the moon! Thank you so so much!!

20 years ago I went to the open day Università di Pavia and discovered what an academic career was. I thought how amazing it would be, one day, to have a lab and be a Professor. Two years ago I opened my lab. Today it's my first day as (Associate) Professor. Achievement unlocked! Kavli Neuroscience

Would you like to shape the future of connectomics ... even neuroscience? Fresh from finishing the two largest connectomes ever, we have post-doc and research assistant positions in the Fly Connectome group Dept of Zoology (collab w @MRC_LMB Scott Waddell Janelia Fly EM) Pls RT 1/4
