@Dr_FelixChan I don’t see a significant difference. It all depends which box maker is best known.

Okay, Academic Twitter. I need your peer-review opinion to settle this debate once and for all. My cousins and I did a homemade character bento course. One of them is my bento (but this is a blinded study). Can you tell me which bento box would be funded for continuation?

Super excited to start on this Endeavour Project funded by @EpilepsyRUK where we will look at new treatment approach for epilepsy in #TSC. A continuation of work funded by @tscalliance in the USA. Great to also work with @UKTSA to involve TSC patients in the design of this study.

The contribution of Leif Hertz to brain energy metabolism was massive and highly influential. Read about what he did and what remains to be done. doi.org/10.1111/jnc.15…

Interesting roles of fumarate. It will be worth reading the articles. I wonder about how much fumarate needs to accumulate to lead to inflammation. Knocking out a major TCA cycle enzyme would be expected to have some pretty drastic effects. nature.com/articles/d4158…

While there are fair shares of good news for the #ChanLab, also recently learned of 2 grant rejections. I know it is to be expected for an ECR; just thought sharing would normalize the ups and downs of managing and leading a research lab!
