I had 7 seniors graduate from my lab this year, most of them after working together in my lab for several years. As a hilarious and unexpected parting gift, they went to JC Penney and took awkward family photos together. Really appreciate how hard they committed to the bit. 😂 The kids are all right.

What an honor it was to attend the 20th anniversary of Brains & Behavior, see former professors and friends, and give the keynote address.
