I captured my reaction to seeing my first cell through my miniscope thanks to @MiniscopeTeam's software thinking that my laptop's webcam was a behavioral camera. You can see my elation after 24 failed attempts :) Hopefully, I can get more cells in the upcoming days!! :D

@sulafaz I have been using it for a while, I started with the small courses. What is it that you don’t like or find hard?

Dr. Peyman Golshani @pgolshani has been selected for membership in the American Society for Clinical Investigation @the_asci! Election to the ASCI is an impressive feat for physician-scientists and is based on outstanding scholarly achievement. Congratulations Dr. Golshani!

Check out our new paper and learn about the rules that lead to stable Up-states!
Saray Soldado-Magraner@saraysoldado

With @rodlaje and @HMotanis we prove that classic homeostatic rules -when applied to all synapse types- are unstable and cannot lead to inhibition-stabilized regimes such as Up-states. We report a family of rules that autonomously lead to stable Up-states and balanced dynamics.

TFW you’re positive, but the rest of your family is negative, so you’re quarantining alone in your room for 2 weeks...

Check out our new paper in bioRxiv; we studies the role of PV and SST neurons in Up-states. I had so much fun working with the talented @JL_Romero12. We used experimental and theoretical methods to show that PV interneurons have a dominant role in network stabilization.

Differential excitability of PV and SST neurons results in distinct functional roles in inhibition stabilization of Up-states biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #biorxiv_neursci

has anyone actually watched handmaid’s tale, and is it watchable as a woman? or am I right to assume that it is as traumatizing/horrifying as the trailer appears?

@Sunbird3000 After 8 months of constantly using zoom on multiple computers and in different locations, the virtual background does not work for me: never ever was I able to show my full face, at best it shows one full part of my face (like a cheek or a nose).

I said farewell to my grandmother yesterday after a long four year battle with heart failure. she was the first woman in our family to attend university, and put off marriage until 28 to pursue her education and career (in Iran, 70+ yrs ago, this was earth shattering). /1

I feel sorry for people that buy a fancy $200 20V lithium battery cordless drill without realizing a $100 120V corded drill has vastly superior performance.
