Super stoked that @SfNtweets is here in San Diego this year and I will be speaking at the MCCS pre-meeting Fri Nov 16, our lab has posters Sun AM, and we are co-hosting a party at Parq nightclub walkable from CC Mon night.

… I have attached the graphical abstract and our summary in this thread, and if anyone has additional questions about extracting snail ooze, feel free to ask! :) Working with Ed Cargot and Dr. Olofs was a blast. Happy April everyone! 3/3

... and I am so proud of the work that we have done doing free-moving 1P imaging in snails. This project demonstrates that free-climbing is likely conserved across evolutionary species, and was probably the reason why humans evolved... 2/3

Hi Everyone, I am so excited to announce my collaboration with the @Olofs_Lab to identify a novel neural mechanism for adrenaline and free-climbing in snails! This project came together so fast... 1/3

Nearly everything we do contributes to our carbon footprint. But a two-wheeled solution is zipping through the world at 20 miles an hour on.natgeo.com/3JiNecr

Now that I have officially messed up my first twitter thread, I would like to also show what #ChatGPT wanted me to write for this paper (and I will admit, I was definitely inspired by the emojis):

7/7 Thank you to @science_is_hard, Amy Cao, and Anousheh Bakhti-Suroosh for their helpful discussion! The link to the full paper is here: nyaspubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

6/7 Our model integrates findings from cognitive, computational and molecular neuroscience to offer a comprehensive understanding of anxiety and depression. I hope it can inspire healthy discussion and some cool papers in the future! ✨

1/7🧵 I'm excited to share my paper titled "Anxiety and Depression: A Top-Down, Bottom-Up Model of Circuit Function" which I coauthored with @matildee_rose , @RayLMir and @kaymtye published in @NYASciences awarded by @BlavatnikAwards (graphical abstract below)...

The widespread deployment of outdoor electric lighting means that the night is no longer dark for most people. A new special issue of Science examines the effects of #LightPollution on the natural world, human health, and the night sky. scim.ag/31b

... Inspired by David Marr's three levels of inquiry, we combine computational, algorithmic, and biological data to construct a theoretical model which argues that the energy landscape of the brain can perseverate in top-down and bottom-up processing modalities... 2/n

How to write a research proposal

Today was a special day! It was everything I hoped it to be and so much more! In the immensity of it all ... I managed to keep my cool, save energy, stay safe and soak up the vibe of @LeTourFemmes avec @GoZwift with my colleagues and teammates 💜 Tomorrow we do it all again 👊
