Elliot Crooks, PhD

Proud to announce that I have successfully defended my dissertation and have officially been awarded a PhD in Biochemistry & Structural Biology ! 🎊🍻

How can TMS to the memory circuit improve (rather than disrupt) memory? @mollyhermiller suggests one key may be the pattern: theta burst TMS mimics endogenous rhythms (and may help) while other TMS frequencies may not.

…all I want for christmas – is youu!! 🎶🎵

The “postdoc” is an antiquated concept and should just be replaced with real jobs with real benefits and retirement packages. For God’s sake, the folks have PhDs… they’ve paid their dues.

Had a great time at #AAMC23 Earn Erve Ead 🤩 hopefully a better pic next time!

HMU if you’re around 👏🏻

@HyperCase_CWRU is on the way to the @AAMCtoday #AAMC23 Lead Serve Learn conference !

Wednesdays are #focusedultrasound treatment days at @UofUNeurosurg! Great outcome of #MRgFUS thalamotomy in a patient with tremor dominant PD @UofUNeurosurg @UofURadiology @FUSFoundation @INSIGHTEC @ParkinsonDotOrg

I really love this story because we solved a problem by making a new class of magnetic materials. Let me tell you why we couldn't rely on naturally occurring magnetic materials for neuromodulation + why temporal interference for neuromodulatoin is suspect 🌶️ 🧵

Happy to report that our first meeting of the 2023-2024 round was a resounding success! Keep your eyes peeled for updates about our teams and the exciting innovations they're hard at work on!

Happy to share my article (w/ @RolstonJohn @ChantelCharleb @50kDinar and team) doi.org/10.1093/brain/… @Brain1878! Stimulation timing is a critical parameter in neuromod for epilepsy, but in a surprising twist, stim occurring outside of seizures may be doing the heavy lifting 💪

Just finished a cool DBS project? Submit your cutting edge DBS papers to our special collection at @FrontiersIn @FrontNeurosci frontiersin.org/research-topic… Our submission deadline has extended to Oct 20!

Our co-founders, @ElliotCrooks Katelyn Vlastaris, and @YvetteZ98 , are talking today with the @cwru @VealeInstitute about HyperCase, our origins, and our vision. Looking for the article in The Daily! Excited about the upcoming round of HyperTeams! 🧠👏🏻

Why do some #MultipleSclerosis lesions cause memory problems but not others? We show that brain lesions associated w/ MS memory dysfunction connect to a memory circuit centered on the hippocampus @foxmdphd @DrDrXanderLi @neuromichael @SpringerNature 🧵 link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Great article outlining a framework for future target identification and network-based personalized therapeutics by @RolstonJohn @foxmdphd 🔥 #citeas" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">nature.com/articles/s4138…

Medical students are dispirited by seeing nonphysician providers with less training than they have already delivering care. Learn more. spr.ly/6018PZTxO

When I started out in science, I ran gels. It takes a day or two to master and then you just do it hundreds of times. If you fail, it costs your time only & you try again. CryoEM takes months to master and a typical PhD student will solve <5 structures. How do we train?

This was my “Barbie & Oppenheimer”
