Once I read a [Dowling lab paper](10.1002/cne.22135) on how to label horizontal cells in zebrafish retinas with DiI. One day I decided to try it and never expected it to work so well and produce such beautiful images.
Here is a horizontal-cell bloom

Allow #myself to #introduction #myself.

I am a #basic neuroscientist and Associate Professor at the University of Washington, where my lab studies how the brain senses and moves the body (#proprioception #motorcontrol).

I will mainly be tooting about the #research and accomplishments of the scientists in my lab, new and old #neuroscience papers that incite me, and efforts to improve the rigor and equity of science. I may slip in the occasional #snowfly pic.

I hope to use #ScienceMastodon for discovering new scientific #manna and for unexpected interactions with #Scientists and #PseudoScientists alike.

@biyolokum Also, we should not consider this system the final answer to everything, but a path to something better. It’s a very good start though!

@biyolokum agree with previous answer. Instead of a single ruler this is a federation. The structure is by design different. And you can keep followers if you migrate!

Unlimited file size, everything NWB captures. They have a couple of terabyte-scale data sets. Perfect for V(T) data!

Switched from gradient descent to damped dynamics simulation in the Wigner crystal thing and now I can do crazy stuff like pluck individual particles in the lattice

Also the whole thing moves in a kind of cosmic way

Delighted to share that my first ever first-author paper is now out from Cell Reports! We started out with a gene, a behavioral phenotype, and no idea what was going on at the circuit level to link those things. Classic genetic methods (temporal-specific and cell-type-specific rescue) told us the gene acts acutely in neurons-- but which ones? We developed a computational method that ended up IDing a new projection to the decision-making circuit! cell.com/cell-reports/fulltext

@Namnezia about 10 minutes sounds right. Everything in plain arepas is precooked so there really no risk; just a matter of taste.

Our latest work on #bioRxiv answers a simple question: can you see cellular substructures and ultrastructure without fluorescence, or even a 🔬? - Yes, you can! With #UnclearingMicroscopy! @OnsMSaad1 @mshribak @YaleCellBio

@Namnezia it’s like in Harry Potter. Just say Voldemort! It’s a made up name anyway!

@NicoleCRust @anneurai She gave an excellent talk at the NEI Focus on Fellows a few weeks ago. It was so good!

Big welcome to @anneurai!

Anne is an Assistant Professor in Leiden (Netherlands). Let's all celebrate her substantial contributions to understanding how we make decisions:

Anne is also been part of the heart and soul of an exciting team science experiment in brain research, the @InternationalBrainLab

Finally, let's applaud Anne's contributions to Green Neuroscience. She continuously offers us all action items for stopping climate change: anneurai.net/green-neuroscienc

An examination of over 1 million funding proposals to the National Science Foundation from 1996 to 2019 reveals that white principal investigators are consistently funded at higher rates than most non-white PIs and relative funding rates for white PIs have been increasing. elifesciences.org/articles/830

"Many researchers do not share their data and code simply because they do not know how. The process of archiving data and code is not always straightforward. In one survey of biologists, 46% of respondents were unaware of how to organize data in a presentable and usable way, and 33% reported that not knowing which online hosting service, or repository, to use was a barrier to sharing data and code "

Hello world! We are Open Ephys. We make #opensource hardware and software for #neuroscience research. We are a worker cooperative (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Worker_c). We want to make scientific tools available to anybody who might want to use them.

🚨JOB ALERT🚨
My lab at University of Maryland-Baltimore is hiring a postdoc!

Consider applying if you are interested in cellular regulators of excitability #ionchannels, mouse brains🧠, CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing 🧬✂️, and behaviors 🐭
(more info here: thejuarezlab.com)!

We are dedicated to the promotion of diversity and inclusivity in science.

We can also connect at #ACNP2022 in December!
