I learn something new and intriguing every day ... !

Is that an actual genre?! My finger is apparently no longer on the pulse of literary modernity ...

Weren't we just discussing this @sjo09.bsky.social ?!

Why does Strava hit differently than other social media platforms? For the writer Steve Knoppe, the fitness app's data meritocracy "creates a sense that you are being measured against something concrete and real." nyti.ms/44lHglw

That's not wear ... those are scars.

OH! I'm so glad!!

Scampi if you're feeling Italian, Kalaya for Thai is always a hit, El Chingon for Mexican ... just to name a few. :)

thesis advisor: mental health is just that, health. you carry an inhaler for your asthma. it's not shameful or weak to get medical care for biochemical dysfunction that prevents you from living your best life. doesn't matter if the dysfunction is in your lungs or in your brain.

My quote of the day

Toxic people defy logic. Some are blissfully unaware of the negative impact that they have on those around them, and others seem to derive satisfaction from creating chaos and pushing other people's buttons.

That's a wrap on #SfN25 and what a week it's been!

Thank you to everyone who brought the energy, curiosity, and passion that made this week unforgettable.

See you in D.C. for #SfN26!

I wish I was more surprised by this "established" take ... but alas, heard it many, many times. And yet, us youngins are still here. We'll keep fighting!

The science is always top notch but so too are the people. #SFN25 was a great opportunity to catch up with dear old friends and make some new ones. In this crazy world, I consider myself very fortunate indeed to be able to interact with all of these fine folks.

This kind of bums me out a bit, because I've been using the word 'delve' for ages and I really enjoy it! Now everyone's going to think I'm a robot. And I'd like to keep that hidden until the time is right ...

You know, I will say, @tedabelneuro.bsky.social and the Iowa Neuroscience Institute really knows how to throw a party. There may have been shenanigans. Thanks INI for being such generous hosts and making a highlight of #sfn25.

Absolutely. It's totally OK. I've gone as long as <checks notes> 17 years. Still great. Publication quality image first try.

Yep. I was shoved into a post by a faculty member. It was not accidental. I took that as my cue to leave.

What a great synapse social! Thanks to everyone who came including our special guests Troy Littleton, Heather Broihier, Sheena Josselyn, Megan Williams, Martin Hruska, and more! And extra thanks for my co-organiser Julie Lefebvre for being amazing to work with. A great time for faculty AND trainees!

Ballroom 13 is at the end of the row! It's a little walk, but it's worth the schlep for all the outstanding colleagues and our own cash bar!

Tonight is the night, SFN25! The "Bridging the Synapse" SFN-sponsored social happening in the Marriott Marquis Ballroom 13 from 7 to 9 PM. @julielefebvrelab.bsky.social and I will be hosting special guests, all things synaptic biology, and excellent camaraderie and conversation. Please join us!!

SfN- join us Monday evening for the Bridging the Synapse Social
7pm!

A marvelous Meet the Experts talk going on right now at SFN25 from @dacolon.bsky.social !! How can you get a better project than the epic protoplasmic kiss that culminates a love story?!?!

If you're at SfN, don't forget about the BRAIN Toolmakers Showcase tonight! This is always a fun opportunity to learn about new technologies and network.

Introduced @marthabhattacharya.bsky.social to one of my fave San Diego taco joints. This is what SFN25 is all about: wonderful colleagues and great tacos. ;)

I like your theory.
