@TaralynTan Oops, missed the initial post yesterday but feel free to pass along my contact info as well!

@MichaelPHart1 Congratulations, Mike!!!

So excited to share our first paper from the lab! Brandon Bastien found that alpha and gamma neurexins are BOTH needed for a foraging behavior in C. elegans!! Check out the open access paper for more info!! rdcu.be/dswhD

@Grafe_Lab Sending some to you shortly

Does anyone have a neuroscience trivia game/questions appropriate for college students that they want to share with me? It's for a (potentially) fun end to my senior seminar #neurotwitter #AcademicTwitter

@saranagamana It may be the perfect action movie.

@ennuigo I'm an expert in forced marches of multiple sequential 15+ hr driving days. Is this the kind of hellish expertise you seek?

@Meng2Fu 56448

What is the minimum postdoc stipend (starting with 0 years of experience as a postdoc) at your US university? Asking because I want to figure out which university is paying their postdocs the most 🤓

@sharifkronemer I still hold that any and all offices you use should be decked out in gold polka dots--but hot pink ones would also be acceptable.

I defended my thesis exactly one year ago today! Time goes by too quickly!

@ennuigo I very much hope you ah-oo aloud with abandon

@anniecardi I'd really like to see how that energy translated into a restaurant.

@MichaelPHart1 @PennNGG @TDrivas @Sci_SamPhD That cake was amazing. But honestly, the audacity of reminding us all that we are a decade older is really unforgivable.

10 years ago today I defended my PhD thesis @PennNGG!! Still amazingly grateful to Aaron Gitler and my amazing mentors and committee! Only pics I could easily find were of the neuron cake made by @TDrivas and @Sci_SamPhD!! #decade #phdlife #congarats

@Grafe_Lab Why on earth would they do such a thing???

I came to find out it was the preschool that gave out the recorder. WTF Mother’s Day present is that? HORRIBLE NOISES

How fast can we see? Our work looks at the earliest timepoints of visual perception through intracranial EEG, led by @AyaF_Khalaf: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35446937/ #Neuroscience #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter #epilepsy #consciousness

@Grafe_Lab @GDunnArt Don't you wonder how that reasoning went down in his head?

I went to a store to get a beautiful hippocampus piece by @GDunnArt framed. The person working there was surprised to hear I was a neuroscientist “You don’t look like a neuroscientist”, he said. “I’ve met some” & he named some dudes #pictureascientist #womeninscience

@NicoleCRust ...what is this sleep that you speak of?

The drug brexanolone for postpartum depression has an epic bench-to-bedside development story behind it. A second treatment also serendipitously emerged from its clinical trials: control group new moms also improved b/c they finally got 3 nights sleep. biologicalpsychiatryjournal.com/article/S0006-…

@NicoleCRust I have a fun and not at all social-media appropriate story about an inadvertent version of this while drugged up recovering from a reconstructive knee surgery in high school. 😬

Zombie nouns - ah!!! Take an adjective, verb or noun and add a suffix like ity, tion or ism. 'The proliferation of nominalizations in a discursive formation may be an indication of a tendency toward pomposity and abstraction.' Don't want that?

@Grafe_Lab That's way better than looking back and feeling you were an idiot! But in general, I think you-from-5-years-ago was pretty great all around.

Do you ever read your older published work, and you've completely forgotten certain ideas you had? As you read the discussion, you're like "ahhh good point, me from 5 years ago" #AcademicChatter
