Are you considering a PhD? Interested in neural plasticity and/or language and reading acquisition? I will be reviewing applications this cycle through rehab sciences and neuroscience. I’ll also be attending SNL Annual Meeting in Brisbane- happy to meet for coffee and discuss!!

Announcing our Fall Seminar Series! Join us Fridays to learn about these researchers new work in hearing and neuroscience. Beginning tomorrow with Kaisu Lankinen Kaisu Lankinen from MGH Martinos: "Using 7T fMRI and MEG to examine functional properties of the human auditory pathways."

🚨I am recruiting a PhD student to UF College of Education Special Education Program with a focus in Early Childhood! Please RT/share! If you are interested in early childhood, STEM learning, spatial skills, and more, please consider applying to work with me! Please email me prior to applying!

I’m headed to SNL Annual Meeting in Brisbane next week! Come see me present work from multiple model systems informing our understanding of dyslexia. Interested in a PhD in my lab? Come see me at the poster or let’s grab coffee!

Day 1, #SNL2024: nice view from my Airbnb last night and some creative coffee this morning. I see you, Brisbane. Excited to be back at my favorite conference!

For those at #SNL2024, come see my poster tomorrow in the morning session. I cram three full studies onto one poster to show the benefit of using multiple model systems to understand genetic contributions to dyslexia!

Free scientific illustrations for biologists! 😍 NIH has released a library of 500+ free scientific illustrations to create figures, presentations, and illustrations! all freely available in the public domain. Retweet and spread the message! bioart.niaid.nih.gov

Some excellent advice! It can be intimidating not having a checklist of things to do during data analysis, but that’s also what leads us to some of the most exciting findings.

Will stay here for a little while, but starting the move to the other place. Same handle- please follow me over there to help me make the switch!

Applications for the UF McKnight Brain Institute NeuroGators postdoc program will open in January. Would you like to do a postdoc with us in the areas of non invasive vagus nerve stim and/or biological correlates of language/reading acquisition? Let’s talk!!! mbi.ufl.edu/research/award…

The lab of Dr. Tracy Centanni focuses on language perception both auditory and visual, reading disorders such as dyslexia, and potential techniques to induce neural plasticity to improve reading and language. #MBI_Labs Learn more: tmcentanni.com

It’s crazy how talking with a science buddy is simultaneously what’s most likely to move the project forward and the thing that’s least prioritized in our schedule.

Wowza news in early literacy: Study shows major gains in K-1 reading outcomes from use of the viral, and virtually free, UFLI foundational skills program. In fact, I’ve never seen effect sizes this high from a study of a literacy program. Congrats Holly Lane Matthew Burns

Call to End Freeze on Federal Grants The White House's pause on federal grants threatens our nation’s scientific progress. This unprecedented freeze will impact students and trainees who rely on grants, funded investigators, and patients waiting for critical discoveries and
