Lyft driver picked me up from UNC, turned out he was a medicinal chemistry post-doc in a building near mine, until his grant got cut last month.
Worked on novel antivirals.
We will likely be looking for someone with expertise with optical methods in vivo, cranial window surgeries in mice, analysis of 2P imaging data (especially ML-based), viral approaches. Nothing posted yet, but I know there are good people looking, so please reach out.

If you want to feel small and insignificant, stare up at the stars in the sky. If you want to feel how immensely profound, impossibly complex, and just outright improbable your existence is, gaze at the stars in this 1mm^3 cube and realize it's less than a millionth the volume of your own brain.

First time around, all his cronies were named stuff like Joey Macaroni and wanted to commit tax fraud and go on Dancing With The Stars. This time, they have names like John Hitlerfuhrer and have spent the last 15 years blogging about phrenology.
