We used rabies virus 👾 to map how #psilocybin modifies long-range circuits 🧠, revealing network-specific reorganization that we didn’t expect. Full study now online at Cell @CellCellPress Paper 👉 doi.org/10.1016/j.cell… Thread for a synopsis 👉 x.com/kwanalexc/stat…

New preprint + thread 🧵 #Psychedelics induce the formation of new synapses, but where do they connect? Our rabies tracing study reveals that #psilocybin shifts connectivity across specific cortical networks. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 1/12

Our paper simulating fluorescence lifetime in real-life experiments is now a Version of Record @eLife! We hope it helps FLIM users with more rigor and innovation. If you are interested in turning our innovation proposals into reality, we welcome motivated people to join our lab.

Can synapses in the brain switch their signs between excitatory and inhibitory during learning🚦? Can they act more like weights in artificial neural networks, able to switch signs based on experience 🔃? Excited to share my thesis work in @blsabatini lab! 🧵 ⬇️ (1/13)

After applying to 9 PhD programs, I was disappointed to only get into 1. My mom told me, “Bloom where you’re planted.” 6 years later — I received multiple invitations to give talks, won several awards, was named a rising star, got my paper accepted in Nature. I guess I bloomed.

We have an updated version of our fluorescence lifetime simulation manuscript now: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…. We have included a Python version of the package in addition to the original Matlab package. We hope this is useful for the community and welcome feedback.
Yao Chen@yaochen20

Our paper, "The promise and peril of comparing fluorescence lifetime in biology revealed by simulations", is now on @eLife: doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…. Hope readers will use our package to design and interpret FLIM experiments rigorously, and also give us feedback.
