A wealth of connections, now in the BANC! Congrats to this international consortium for a massive new data release shedding light on brain-body interactions.

The first “brain-and-cord” connectome is out! Excited to have played a minor role :) See the thread and preprint for exciting findings on how info flows btwn the brain, VNC and periphery in flies. Congrats @as_bates, @jasper_tms, Minsu Kim, Helen Yang, @darbly & team!

Thanks to Tabish Syed for hammering out the majority of it with me! Tabish is on the job market for any departments looking for an expert in applying computer vision to biological problems. Thanks to Keith Murai, Yoshi Kubota, and Youssef Mohammed for their contributions.

We had an amazing time in Lyon this week “Linking Brain Structure and Function at the Nanoscale.” Thanks so much to @ADenizot for gathering such a great group of scientists to talk about #vEM, computational models and #astrocytes!

I hear neuro people talking about "oh you need to report what mouse chow you used and what kind of water your mice got because these can affect behavior" and I'm like, maybe don't work in this field?

As always we name names. The senile senator is Republican John Kennedy from Louisiana. He has taken $356,146 from the oil and gas industry. He confused Joe Biden and Joe Manchin in this video. Why does he get to write our energy laws? Why?

Enormous update. Enormous update. The Senate Budget Committee is having a prolonged and heated exchange about us. We have made the soot-stained, oil-soaked Senators livid. This is working. This is breaking through. We are penetrating the chinks in their armor. Buckle up.

Someone asked me to compare postdoc pay to the median Canadian wage, here it is after taxes: TriAgency PDF: $32-36k/yr Average PDF: $41k Canadian median: $68.4k Avg rent 1BR: $26k/yr When rent is 60-80% of your income, can you afford a research career?
