@_ElizabethOlivo presented her work on ultramicroelectrode stimulation at the brain initiative meeting! Congratulations on your first poster presentation, and awesome work!! @OttoKev

I defended on 3/31! Thanks to @OttoKev ‘s lab and @OrthoBME_Lab !

Hot off the press -- Check out our latest paper! iopscience.iop.org/article/10.108… Did you know that nerve fibers (aka axons) in smaller fascicles have lower thresholds?

Our lab has a post-doc opening! Direct message me or email me if you’d like to learn more. Our team is broadly interested in chronic musculoskeletal pain and joint diseases, like osteoarthritis. More details here: explore.jobs.ufl.edu/cw/en-us/job/5…

Every time @OttoKev reminds me to “celebrate submissions” instead of waiting and only celebrating acceptances.

When I close my laptop after a writing session I give it two quick gentle pats to let it know it did a good job. What robots do you subconsciously treat like pets?

So happy for our NPRlab seniors @ErynSanAn @IsobaMelissa! Also shoutout to their mentors @ScottThourson , @HakimianHunter , and @OttoKev .

@metaphorician @slava__bobrov Those are all really good questions!! First, yeah I think those are clusters of neurons. This is in vitro (in a culture not in a brain). Neurons act differently in different environments in response to things like voltage gradients and signaling factors from other neurons/glia.

@LSavDewberry @slava__bobrov Wow, that's so puzzling! Why does it look like there are more than one nucleus in a cell? Are they not cells but small colonies? And why are the nuclei so busy traveling around along these paths/"processes"? Are they trying to find their right place in a future brain structure?

Neurons network with each other while a single brain cell stays alone: #neuroscience

@metaphorician @slava__bobrov From the YouTube video description: “The neural cells each contain a bright spot, which is a nucleus.” These are moving too slowly to be electrical impulses (called action potentials). You can’t visually see action potentials without something like a voltage-sensitive dye.

@slava__bobrov What are the bright little trains driving around on the dendritic railway network?

@Sean_Amezcua @slava__bobrov From the description of the YouTube video: “15 min between images shown at 32fps = 8 hours per second”

Really great career panel to close out a great first neuroelectronic interfaces GRS! Useful insights into building relationships with mentors, supporting and being supported by your connections, and being the best at happiness through helpfulness ∩ selfishness.

Feeling lonely, come ask me about KHFAC and NP-induced radiculopathy at poster 1832 #ORS2022

If you’re at ORS check out one of these sweet posters!

@OttoKev what you should have done

#SfN21 poster presenters are currently unable to access Cadmium to upload presentations. We regret the inconvenience. In light of the technical difficulty, the deadline for submitting poster presentation materials has been extended to Tuesday, November 2, 2021, 11:59pm EDT.

@XanderLim18 @TaylorYeater

@ScottThourson has been an inspiration to many people, including myself. What a great workshop!

I meant poster session…

Great booster session this morning at #BMES2021
