This week's new issue of #ScienceTranslationalMedicine has arrived! mRNA vaccines against a deadly avian flu show promise in preclinical tests, researchers delineate the mechanisms behind a new generation of potential GLP-1R drugs, and more. scim.ag/3P2fsut

@MicTott Thank you for providing these sources and tips!

@GregorySimandl More generally, cluster stability can determined using the Jaccard similarity index. Other statistical methods have been developed to determine if clusters are "real" or are just over-clustered data. academic.oup.com/bioinformatics… nature.com/articles/s4159…

UMAPs and t-SNEs are slowly becoming ubiquitous in neuroscience. And so are every possible pitfall in using them.

@aliceschwarze This course looks fascinating and wish I had access to this earlier in my graduate work. Would you also post the readings you will assign online, as well? I am entering the machine learning field from neuroscience and wanted to get some primers on these topics.

@bryce_laurin Really cool idea and project!

Fun time presenting our community pathways project at the Upper Midwest Division Society of Neuroscience Conference today!

@giuliobonif @ADenizot @astrocyteNet @CNSorg Is this tutorial accessible virtually?

📢 Here is a glimpse of the tutorial schedule. Check out the tutorial website for all the details: sites.google.com/view/astrotuto… See you in Leipzig! @ADenizot @astrocyteNet #astrocyte #CNS2023 @CNSorg

🧠 Are you fascinated by astrocytes and their interplay with neurons? Wondering how computational models can help unravel their mysteries? Join us on July 15th at #CNS2023 for an enlightening tutorial that explores computational approaches to study neuron-astrocyte interactions.

While I will support the bipartisan budget agreement, I’m deeply disappointed that it slashes @NIH funding by approx. $500M. It’s shameful that Rs would insist on cuts to med research as part of this deal. As a member of the Approps Committee, I'll work to reverse these cuts.

@te_jenson Congrats!

@NeuroscienceMCW @MCW_CBNA Was this seminar recorded? If so, is there open access to it?

TODAY! 😁 Join the #NRC in MEB-M1060 (Alumni Center) at 12pm for Dr. Xuelin Lou's (@MCW_CBNA) Seminar: "Synapse degeneration in the brain: common mechanism and potential intervention". Zoom Link -> mcw-edu.zoom.us/j/93015441920?…

I am very excited to announce that I was selected for the Burroughs Wellcome Fund Trainee Travel Award for ACTS2023! I am thankful for the opportunity and can’t wait to discuss science with so many great researchers! @ACTScience

Hi everyone, please consider donating to and sharing the GoFundMe link below. Peter may not be with us anymore, but we're working hard to make sure his efforts live on ❤️gofund.me/4c7c9a82

@npp_journal @ACNPorg 👋🏼 everyone! Second-time ACNPer and 4th year graduate student. My lab uses rodent models to look at the role of glutamate signaling from astrocytes in cognition, specifically behavioral control.

Hey @ACNPorg members/mtg regulars - getting back into the swing of conferencing is challenging, so we'd like to extend a warm welcome to #ACNP2022 for early career folks and people new to ACNP. Would love if you could introduce yourselves to kick off the mtg and welcome everyone!

Today marked a first for me in research: 2 scalpel blades in one wrapper.

Excited to integrate computational neuroscience and neural modeling into my graduate work after @neuromatch this summer!

Probing Neuro-Endocrine Interactions Through Remote Magnetothermal Adrenal Stimulation frontiersin.org/article/10.338… Excited that a project that I worked on before graduate school got published! We investigated novel stimulation technology to benefit psychiatric disorders.

@ACTScience Come check out my poster (401) investigating the potential for non-neuronal glutamate release mechanisms as safer and more effective targets for CNS disorders that have impaired behavioral control comorbidities.

@Sukanya_neuro @AcademicChatter @PhDVoice Using effect size to complement a boarder line p value is becoming more prevalent in journals to avoid these situations.

Imagine the frustration when p value is exactly 0.05! #phdchat #phdlife @AcademicChatter @PhDVoice

Statistics can be confusing. Articles like these simplify it and keep it interesting!
