Having the start of my kid’s theater performance of Wizard of Oz delayed by a tornado warning was a little on the nose.

Seems like there’s no reason in principle the tartrazine trick (with a suitable dye) wouldn’t work in the brain for 2P. Is that right?

Seeing a launch in person was amazing. But standing next to a dozen young spacex engineers and seeing their reaction to the catch was a real bonus.

I am humbled by the response to this and I have one ask. Can you share this post so that we can get 75K likes? It is the most impactful thing Sandra Abrevaya and I can do to save our democracy.

Some commenting about NIH grants don't appreciate how incredibly competitive it is to get these funds A typical study section reviews ~75-100 grants, most of which are outstanding but only ~10 get funded Can't think of any process in the private sector that is as competitive

If you want to feel small and insignificant, stare up at the stars. If you want to feel immensely profound, impossibly complex, and just outright improbable, gaze at the stars in this 1mm cube and realize it's ~ a millionth the volume of your own brain. microns-explorer.org/cortical-mm3

The most exciting thing about the 10 papers in this cortex edition of Nature is that they are just the beginning of discoveries to be made using the microns dataset. Yours could be next microns-explorer.org

After 7 years, thrilled to finally share our #MICrONS functional connectomics results! We recorded activity from ~75K neurons in visual cortex in a single mouse, then mapped its wiring using electron microscopy. To systematically characterize neuron function, we built the first

We will likely be looking for someone with expertise with optical methods in vivo, cranial window surgeries in mice, analysis of 2P imaging data (especially ML-based), viral approaches. Nothing posted yet, but I know there are good people looking, so please reach out.
