I'm thrilled to announce that our work about Nlgn3 on AMPAR nanoclusters is out in Science Advances (science.org/doi/abs/10.112…). Kudos to students Ying Han Peking University and Ran Cao. Such a pleasant collaboration with the labs of Prof. Ai-hui Tang and @SudhofThomas Stanford University

Been thinking about the meta of science. No one who runs the lab does not obsess endlessly about what is the best next experiment to do but what about the environment and culture of how we structure intellectual discourse in our lab? Lots of thoughts on this. To be continued...

Finally-Paper I'm co-corresponding with Profs. Zhuan Zhou (PKU), David Xu (CCMU), and Howard Gu (Ohio State U) have been accepted at Cell Reports. Earlier version via Sneak Peek: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf… Stay tuned for the online version!

Hello world, ONE is here... I am happy to share with you a new technology —termed #ONE_Microscopy, that allows a resolution approaching ~8 Å using conventional light microscopy. SauerLab Ed Boyden Radu Aricescu Full story: biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…

I'm really pleased to share a tool I developed with colleagues at Edinburgh University - designed to support academics in managing their research careers. 1/11

Proud to be part of this cool collaborating project!@CellReports Congrats to Drs. Feipeng Zhu&Lina Liu&Jie Li Peking University. A true organic discovery/idea but (not surprisingly) a very tough sell!😂 If you want to go far, go together! cell.com/cell-reports/f…

Had our fantastic 1st joint lab meeting (virtual) today with Dr. Markus Wöhr's Markus Wöhr lab from KU Leuven KU Leuven Thanks, everyone!🤓

Asia parents/grandparents know this method Current Biology for hundreds of years, right? We are just too busy to take care of crying infants.😂 Always finish your data analysis before doing more experiments.🤓

I met Phillippe during 2007 IBRO course-Xi'an @ibroSecretariat. After the course, I invited him to Beijing for a short visit. "Do you have any hobbies", I asked. "I like to have a chair and just watch beautiful girls walk by" (not the exact words though). RIP Phillippe Ascher!

This is the most inspiring and true article about academic success I read in a long time. Everybody should read this. By my former colleague John Tukker elifesciences.org/articles/83251

It is with a heavy heart we announce that our co-editor-in-chief Dr. Huaxi Xu has passed away after a brief battle with cancer. His contribution to the journal and the scientific community was unmatched. He was a great scientist, colleague, friend, and he will be missed by many.

Scientists-in-training: find the mentor that is right for you. Here are my guidelines for how to do that 🧵 1. Make sure to choose a mentor who will be deeply committed to your career; someone who will continue advising and supporting you well after your time working together.

Scientists spend too much time taking “professional selfies”. A paper from PNAS describes what it takes to be a scientist today. Key points (that I always emphasize myself): #AcademicTwitter Academic Chatter™ #research

Tomorrow will be the last day of my thirties! I panicked and was saved by labmates' early b-cakes! Carl Jung was half right "Life really does begin at forty. Up until then, you are just doing research." ! I am doing research before forty, will keep doing research after forty!😂

Happy China's Youth day!🌟 After checking the status of your manuscript and see five reviewers agreed to review the manuscript, are you still the fearless Youth? 😂😂😂

Extremely happy to announce I have been accepted into the doctoral school of Chemical Genomics at Peking University! 🧧 Thank you so much for all the help and guidence throughout this process Bo Zhang Peking University WöhrLab ! Ready to do some even more exciting science 😎🐁🔬🧬

Dr. Liming Qin's long journey on the roles of astrocytic Nlgn3 (recently published molecularpsychiatry). Worthy a read! communities.springernature.com/posts/location…

In this preprint, the authors reported that the secreted molecule C1ql1 adopts domain swapping to form hexamer (from trimers), and eventually modulates synaptic connectivity. A fun collaborating project.😁 researchsquare.com/article/rs-601…

Very excited to share our early release paper in Journal of Neuroscience about autism/ataxia associated gene FAT2! Congrats to Xiankun &Yadi& Jifei and all co-authors！🌟 🎉 🎉🎉 SfN Journals Markus Wöhr Peking University Shenzhen Bay Lab jneurosci.org/content/early/…
