I became a scientist to answer important and interesting questions, which is why at my recent PhD defense I presented longitudinal data on how many hot cheetos I ate in grad school. @ChesterCheetah if you’re interested it takes almost 19,000 flamin’ hot cheetos to get a PhD🔥

I’m so excited to share our preprint on how brainstem neurons sense and integrate multiple body signals during food consumption. We imaged 1000s of neurons across the lateral parabrachial nucleus (LPBN) in behaving mice. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Thrilled to announce that my PhD work has been officially published in @Nature! nature.com/articles/s4158… 🧵🧵🧵🧵🧵🧵 1/8

Had an amazing time co-organizing @PiN_Harvard’s Spring Symposium with @HerrietHsieh and @davidhbrann! Thank you to our speakers @SenguptaLab, @lovett_barron, @tollkuhn, and Michale Fee, we loved hearing from you! And thank you @lifeinneuro for the incredible poster design 😍🧠

day 2 of eating lunch with nobel laureates 🤩 #KSVSensory22

We never managed to go kayaking, but had an incredible lunch with @DJuliusSF

I basically tweet once a year, and it’s to express my love for my labmates, @BioRender, and wordplay #HappyValentinesDay

It’s here: the 2022 (virtual) PiN recruitment weekend! We’re so excited to welcome our exceptional group of interviewees! We look forward to getting to know you and your science, and we’re excited for you to get to know us, too! 🧠

Very grateful and excited to receive this incredible support from the New York Stem Cell Foundation! @nyscf

Super excited that DeepEthogram is published officially today in @eLife!! elifesciences.org/articles/63377 (1/N)

My first paper is finally published! In it we explore how homologous chromosomes pair up by looking at cells in live fly embryos and comparing their dynamics to simulated polymers. Fantastic collaboration with @jbateman01 @HernanGGarcia @djost_physbiol doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…

Received a nice birthday surprise yesterday: our lab’s first R01 was funded! Very grateful to my amazing lab members for their dedication and hard work. 😊🥳🍾

We have another research assistant position available. Contact me if you want neuro lab experience working in a great environment @UCSF. aprecruit.ucsf.edu/JPF03174

Made some low-quality @BioRender valentines for my high-quality labmates 🙃

I spent two years in @mazen_kheirbek’s lab as a tech and could not recommend it more! If you’re looking for amazing mentorship and awesome science, check it out 🧠

@jacquelinemosko @HerrietHsieh @anna_ware ❤️❤️❤️

So thankful to have friends in the same boat as me starting grad school in covid times, and also great friends a few years into their PhDs, to help give me advice and listen to my insecurities 🥺💞 @HerrietHsieh @kelsey_clausing @anna_ware I miss y'all so much

Happy to present the first paper from my PhD! biorxiv: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… code: github.com/jbohnslav/deep… Install now using `pip install deepethogram`! (1/N)

Um what transgene is causing this behavioural phenotype @AcademicChatter

Excited to share this awesome work from my tech years with @mazen_kheirbek! Congrats to the whole team @mmgergues, Kasey Han @hyeschoi, Brandon Brown, @VS_Turner, @IliaVainchtein and @AnnaMolofskyLab! nature.com/articles/s4159…
