We’re told to “eat a diverse diet”—but how diverse is it in reality? Over 2 weeks: • Lowest 10% consume ~20 unique items • Highest (novelty seekers) reach ~86 Interesting twist: women tend to sample more unique foods than men. Where do you fall? @NatMetabolism

Another poster win for my time-restricted feeding work! What an amazing time here at the GRC from discussing high impact aging research to wine tasting with colleagues #GRC #BiologyofAging #UTSWPostdocs

I get VERY enthusiastic during poster presentations 😆, but that's because delaying aging is so exciting! Having a fantastic time here at the Cold Spring Harbor Lab #cshlaging

Sadly my grandmother passed away this week at age 99. I asked for her longevity secrets a month back and she said "don't wash your face with soap!" Apparently it was quite caustic back in the day😄 I think she more so followed the "Just keep living, don’t die" positivity

Morning reading session with my helpful assistant 👀

Our last paper is out in #iScience. We showed that #feeding represents a strong #circadian synchronizer for blind #cavefish | Proud to be part of this research team EU team | cell.com/iscience/fullt…

Had so much fun this past weekend seeing old friends and mentors in Aggieland! #TSCBM2024

Aggies from @tamuengineering have teamed up with researchers from @riceuniversity and @mdandersonnews to develop molecular jackhammers created to kill cancer cells. 🧬 tx.ag/KillingCancer24

Wrapped up the last bit of my former Ph.D. work 🥳 @tamumonarchlab Thanks to helpful criticisms from reviewers, our new and improved manuscript examining the importance of Cry1 for maintaining robust behavioral rhythms in the monarch is out! #abs0010" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

My maiden/Ph.D. name is rather confusing (iiams not Liams), but I still got a nice mention along with fellow aging researchers in @Forbes ! forbes.com/sites/alexzhav…

@ANHayden1997 @CircadianClocks @VickyAcostaR @ARDD_Meeting I was still very surprised given the other incredible work thats been presented here! So honored

@SamIiamsClever @CircadianClocks @VickyAcostaR @ARDD_Meeting When do you ever not get poster awards? 😂 congratulations!

Couldnt have done this without the incredible opportunities and mentorship provided by @CircadianClocks and @VickyAcostaR Further thanks to the @ARDD_Meeting committee and sponsors!

Excited to be here again in Copenhagen @ARDD_Meeting , and this time with some exciting data to share!

Are light entrainment mechanisms similar across insect species? Now out in BioRxiv, take a look at some unexpected findings we uncovered in monarch butterfly clock entrainment via cry1! Very thankful to my former PhD mentor @tamumonarchlab and all other contributors to this work

@tamumonarchlab Yay!! A huge thanks to you Christine for getting this paper ready to go

Work spearheaded by former grad student @SamIiamsClever now out in BioRxiv. Thanks to all past and current lab members for their contribution. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

@ANHayden1997 @AreyLab Congrats Ashley!!

So honored to have gotten a poster award and a video #wormart award at #worm23! Thank you to @AreyLab for all your support! Watch the full video submission here: youtu.be/YMUB0RJkh-I

#OBIResearchDay is underway!

We heard from two of our OBI Research Interest Groups this morning – Circadian Rhythm and Autism. OBI supports researchers in all UTSW departments who want to meet and collaborate on brain research.

@xseedling @CCB_UCSD @CircadianClocks @VickyAcostaR @nskinnersci @Juliiiaco Yup! Also it is unexpectedly 55F all week. No tropical wear this time

@SamIiamsClever @CCB_UCSD @CircadianClocks @VickyAcostaR @nskinnersci @Juliiiaco When Texas are in California, they dressed like New Yorkers😍 black top and jeans
