Fellow federally funded scientists, CALL your representative and senators and tell them the shenanigans at NIH are endangering scientific progress, health security, and jobs. Then badger your colleagues to do it too!

So many people here now- thought I would reintroduce myself!

I am an Assistant Prof at BCM in TX. I love behavior, neuroscience, and using worms to study those things.

I love food and drink more!

Congratulations to newly minted Dr. Gregory Reilly, who successfully defended his PhD thesis last week. We're putting together a paper on his work on sexual modulation of behavioral states in C. elegans now - hopefully you'll be able to read about it soon!
