I have no words, this is so sad, disrespectful and racist… And the people laughing in the background? Shame.

Amazing talk by Dr Becca, PhD 🐘 Mount Holyoke College today. Thank you for sharing your wisdom & experience with us, and thank you for prioritizing our students in your visit. They were so excited to have lunch with you 💙

APP pathology that is highly localized and limited to presynaptic cells is sufficient to cause aberrant firing patterns in postsynaptic neuronal networks. Super cool work by @SilviaVianSilva Matt Rina Patel Maylin Fu and the rest of coauthors at the Leutgeb labs!

Every year I read a lot of grad school applications from accomplished people that don't give me the info I'm looking for. It feels like a major hidden curriculum thing. So here's (my opinion on) how to write a great Statement of Purpose/Research for a PhD program. 🧵 1/

So proud of my student Lucy Anderson who presented part of her undergraduate thesis work on Wed. at UMass Amherst! She will also present at Society for Neuroscience (SfN) on Saturday afternoon (B11, 030.07) and at Faculty for Undergraduate Neuroscience that evening. Stop by if you are interested in memory and ADHD.

The Sabariego lab has another 2 posters this afternoon at #SfN2022 VV34 and VV35. Come by if you are interested in the the hippocampus and its role on adaptation to reward changes.

- Good news: I self-diagnosed a Bell’s palsy and took a bunch of cool videos for my Neuro 100 students to see next year - Bad news: I have Bell’s palsy 😅 Hopefully steroids work or I’ll be giving you half smiles for a while 😏

Folks: I am a *huge fan* of informational interviews. They're the single most useful tool for PhDs seeking an industry role. Check out my free guide on how to conduct them linked below. That said, there are a few key norms that info-interview requestors should abide by. A 🧵:

Come be my colleague at MHC!

It was such a privilege to have you on campus. The room was packed with students like I had never seen before. Thank you for sharing your amazing science with us Martha Streng, PhD!

🧠 I'm on the lookout for a neuroscience textbook that comes with an *audio option*, for an introductory college course in neuro. Any recommendations would be a huge help! #Neuroscience #CollegeLife #TextbookSuggestions
