Ever wondered how motor cortex is organized in a bat? Hot off the digital press, the first full map of motor cortex in a species of bat, published today in @CurrentBiology. We found evidence that bat motor maps are organized to support flight and echolocation. 🦇🧠

Yes. Writing is not a second thing that happens after thinking. The act of writing is an act of thinking. Writing *is* thinking. Students, academics, and anyone else who outsources their writing to LLMs will find their screens full of words and their minds emptied of thought.

Why is human brain development, and particularly neuron morphogenesis, so slow and how is this linked to evolution? doi.org/10.1101/2024.1… We developed mouse brain organoid methods capturing differences to human and used these to address this. doi.org/10.1101/2024.1… 🧵 (1/n)

Curious about human brain development through an animal model? 🧠🐒Check out our new preprint on Brain Charts of the Rhesus Macaque Lifespan! We've mapped normative trajectories for macaque brains using 1.5k MRI scans from PRIME-DE and collaborators! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

👀👀@jonas_o_wolff invited me to join him in writing a dispatch on the beautiful work on eye evolution in spiders🕷️by @KaylinChong, @Lauren_hSR and co-authors recently published in @CurrentBiology. This was a total pleasure to write!👀👀 doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.…

Very excited to share my first paper is out! 🎉 We explore the evolution of the multiple eye pairs in spiders🕷️(cell.com/current-biolog…) Couldn’t have done it without to the mentorship of the brilliant @Lauren_hSR!

Why are human brains so big and slow (to develop)? Illuminating to work with the brilliant @feline_lindhout @mad_lancaster and Katie Pollard on this perspective on cellular and molecular mechanisms of specializations in human brain development (1/7) nature.com/articles/s4159…

@chrisXrodgers Marian Diamond and her multi-colored chalk? (Lectures, not conference, but still). I similarly saw Luis Puelles draw a "general vertebrate brain" on a whiteboard, developmental neuromere style, adding sensorimotor loops in sequence from hindbrain up to the cortex. Amazing.

When is the last time you saw a conference talk given on overhead transparencies, slide projector, or similarly ancient technology, and who gave it? When I started grad school in 2007 transparencies were occasionally used for courses but I don't think I ever saw a talk like that

there are a lot of tweets from outspoken figures who seem to relish in pointing out the misery here so i thought id do an ongoing thread of bay area stuff that i love 1. crossing the BB
rat king 🐀@MikeIsaac

every time i cross the bay bridge and look at the city skyline on the way over i am super stoked to live here we have many problems and ive yet to meet a politician who sees their gig as anything other than a pit stop to something greater but this city rocks
