This is basically my fitness routine as well, so I'm very glad to see that someone finally put this all together in one compelling video edit that is not in any way cringe or bizarre.

Astrocytes enable amygdala neural representations supporting memory - Nature Astrocytes in the basolateral amygdala dynamically track fear state and support fear memory retrieval and extinction.

Nice work from my long time collaborator and pal Andrew Holmes' lab, led by the amazing Olena Bukalo.

13% success rates at #CIHR, is a really 87% fail rate for>4000 scientists. At a time when πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ is investing millions to recruit more scientist into a broken funding environment. πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦, U need a strong science foundation 2 attract success. #CIHR, fix your science foundation, it is eroding in real time

Save the date for the annual "Neural Circuits and Behaviour" satellite conference at the Canadian Association for Neuroscience annual meeting, cohosted by @franklandlab.bsky.social and myself on May 18, 2026. We have a great speaker lineup and will be selecting 4 trainees talks from our registrants!

Circle of life with @acnporg.bsky.social mentorship. My first mentee from way back in 2016 @caromenard666.bsky.social now with her mentee (my grand-mentee lol) @zachtpennington.bsky.social who just moved to UBC and is now a fellow πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ #ACNP2026

Let’s not get ahead of ourselves…..I was 37 and Sachin 40 when we got elected so I think we still beat them on that front. I won’t out anyone’s age on here but I am pretty sure they’re age average upon election was higher then 38.5

I see that both @mayoonthebrain.bsky.social and @ryanmcpickle.bsky.social are there and are also coincidentally incoming Cannabinoid GRC chairs, while you, Sachin and myself are all emeritus now, so our value to them has dropped!!!

Sachin and I were also excluded, so clearly it was not a legit picture.

Maybe this should have like a fixed time and place so Kasia won’t have to herd us all lol.

I am questioning this new admin assistant I hired. She has no eyes, a poor grasp of the English language and thinks it’s appropriate to just spend her day napping or eating. If she wasn’t so adorable I would have to let her go.
