Newly minted Dr Matthew Pittman's thesis work just out yesterday in Nature Physics 🎉 beautiful work, great friend 😊 my interest in biophysics growing everyday nature.com/articles/s4156…

We are urgently looking for a lab technician! Please help us spread the words! If interested, DM or apply here (jobs.jhu.edu/job/Baltimore-…)!

Cover of the current issue of Neuron this week is so beautiful 🍄 Artwork by Kip Lyall cell.com/neuron/current…

I say it every year and I’ll say it again, this place will challenge you, inspire you and reinvigorate your passion for science and life

Excited to share our preprint about "Bursting Translation on Single mRNAs in Live Cells" biorxiv.org/content/10.110… by Nathan Livingston Nathan Livingston and Jiwoong Kwon, in collaboration with JianLiu-Theoretical Cell Physics Lab, Green Lab and Taekjip Ha

Pre-print alert before twitter dies. Please check out my exciting work. I look at taste neuron terminals in taste buds (in a living mouse) while taste cells undergo turnover. These terminals are going nuts! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

In a leadership development course, I was asked a very important and thoughtful question: ✨ "in what kind of environment do you thrive?" ✨ 🌱 Let's reflect together as a collective 🌱

Glia are the answer to everything and you cannot tell me otherwise

Wow this is amazing! Carlie L Cullen and my paper was awarded the most significant paper in 2021 in the Australasian Neuroscience Society (ANS)! Congratulations team, Young Glial Research Team.

I have been thinking about adding my first bottle to the shelf since I joined the lab! 🍾So happy to have received a post-doc fellowship from the American Heart Association. A wonderful way to end 2022, 2023 is looking bright. 🤩Thanks watanabe lab 🔬 for believing in me

Wow this was 7 years ago today, graduating from my honors research year. Feels like forever ago. If only baby Renee knew the wild academic ride coming. Small town first gen girl to Dr Pepper at Johns Hopkins.

Beautiful work, premyelinating oligos are so fascinating

Pleased to share our latest paper on microglia pericyte associations published in Glia. Great work by a great team Catherine Foster Dr. Jake Cashion Jenna Ziebell Jo-Maree Courtney Lachlan S Brown, PhD and the twitterless Gary Morris & others.

Axons are even more beautiful than we ever thought. So proud to be a part of this incredible work with these amazing scientists. A reminder that the brain can still surprise us and is still our biggest mystery.

My paper is now out in the world - I can't believe it! If you want to read the preview it is up on bioRxiv: Membrane mechanics dictate axonal morphology and function biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Please RT! We are hiring a lab technologist! If you are interested, please dm or click the link below! jobs.jhu.edu/job-invite/110… (We also have openings for postdocs!!) watanabelab-emanias.com

Dear twitter brains trust, I am just starting to work on a K99 application for next year. Is there anyone out there who would be willing to share their application? 🙏

Delighted to share our latest work “Oligodendrocyte calcium signaling is required for actin-dependent myelin sheath extension” was published online today Nature Communications! Led by former grad student, Manasi Iyer! (1/n)

This new study, led by Shigeki Watanabe & partially conducted in the MBL’s Neurobio course, challenges a fundamental tenet in neuroscience about the shape of axons & proposes a new model for understanding how information is transmitted in the brain. 🧪 🧠 mbl.edu/news/string-pe…
