Spring festival eve! May us always have brilliant ideas and well-designed experiments, and solve the brain in the new year! ( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ

When you do the experiments but don’t have the proper equipments and anyway decide not to follow the protocols 🤣

Considering the probability of me using this in a group meeting and get swept out of the lab 🤔

My beginner’s luck always work amazingly 🤣 Or maybe people will just be evoked with their full potentials when trying to flee from TA work 😅

The amount of good things finally over-numbered the amount of shit that happened this week 🙃Now I can lie on the couch and have my beer

Hope my cute little mice will love their new gym room 😅

My slices and I when I patch are like:

Finally seeing some labeled cholinergic neurons after claiming that I’m studying cholinergic modulation for one and a half year 😅🤣

My cat after going through the fun lecture I’m preparing for the class I TA:

Silliest thing of the day 🤣:

My lab will be presenting Society for Neuroscience (SfN) 2021! Spearheaded by my brilliant PhD student Shulan Xiao and superstar postdoc Daniel Gonzales, hear about our efforts👇in mapping synaptic cooperativity using 2P SLM uncaging, and whisker touch using flexible electrode grids #spines #dendrites

The lab's first paper, "Probing multiplexed basal dendritic computations using two-photon 3D holographic uncaging," is now online at CellReports (cell.com/cell-reports/f…). Congrats to Shulan Xiao and Saumitra on an outstanding and exquisite effort 👏. Purdue Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering Research at Purdue

Want to know more about cortical L5 pyramidal neurons with different dendritic shapes, and their function during learning? Please check out my poster at #Barrels and #SfN! You can also get a crochet pattern at my poster to make your own L5PN toys XD.
