The baby lotls are thriving!

Adobe Acrobat I do not want to know What’s New. I do not want to turn my PDF into a podcast with my team. I want to look at the PDF. Please stop

Yes! I was pleasantly surprised with the success rate. We’ll see how they hold up the next couple of days

All the larvae have left their eggs, 82.5% hatch rate! Currently feeding 33 new friends some harvested brine shrimp.

First three little dudes have hatched & are exploring their new home.

First signs of gill development and becoming a bit less alien!

First signs of development! Right on track.

I’m so excited!

Coolest thing ever happened! My two GFP axolotls have fertile eggs! Aquatics has been a side passion since undergrad. If you have no clue what I’m on about, check out this:

The effect of state negative affect on post-error performance recovery Previous studies demonstrate that individuals with major depressive disorder (MDD) exhibit difficulties responding accurately on trials directly after committing an error (Elliot et al., 1996; 1997...

So excited about this new publication that I joined a whole other social media site to talk about it!

Working with @skyenapolitano.bsky.social and @danfoti.bsky.social, we examined how state NA impacted the ability to recover accuracy after an error.

Terrible! Our lab is conducting a study on how fluctuations in hormones & menstrual cycle impacts social rejection sensitivity. I am not sure how this is even going to be written up without using many “trigger words”. So infuriating

Our project “Empowering Young Students with Python, AI, and Analytics.” We visited schools in underserved neighborhoods and ran hands-on workshops on coding and basic AI concepts. We were able to bring a group of students to campus for a tour. Seeing what’s possible can be a powerful spark! (2/3)

Rec’d by one of my fav slu profs! Also highly recommend if you’re a podcast guru like me. I have listened to now three Ethan Kross segments on Rich Roll & Slight Change Of Plans. Not only interesting emotion research, but genuine novel regulation tools introduced as well.

When I first started working with resting state fMRI as a postdoc, there was a lot of skepticism about what we could learn from it. 20 years later, it's hard to imagine where the field of neuroscience would be without it. Here's a summary 🧠 www.nature.com/articles/s41...
