If the future could look back, would it accuse us of laziness or denial? Our answers to existential threats often feel childlike: quick, shallow, comforting. Comfort is not progress, complexity doesn’t vanish just because we simplify it.

Nice 😊

Enjoying the best the Sea has to offer at Tasquinha do Pescador Canical #Madeira #MadeiraMagic

Love what I’ve seen of them too: been to the Sao Miguel, Sao Jorge and Pico. Just like Hawaii leaving some islands unexplored makes a great excuse to come back. My wife is Portuguese so I get the better end of family travel lol

Love it 🤩

Head in the clouds 😶‍🌫️

My favorite hike on Madeira: Pico do Areeiro.
It’s the top shelf of the world: where grandma hid the cookies and all those mountain blooms.
Clouds fall beneath you. Colors riot. Time goes quiet.

Hah…I have the same concentration when I take selfie as imaging on an LLSM 😉

O Pescador in Machico, Madeira. Pure heaven

Vacay selfie: twilight hum at the harbor’s edge with breath caught somewhere between sky and tide. #Madeira #Funchal #selfie

Landed in Funchal. Molly and I drifted down Avenida do Mar: stone, sea, sunlight, silence. Sometimes a walk with your daughter is the only compass you need. #Funchal #Madeira #AvenidaDoMar #FatherDaughter #WanderWithWonder #MemoryInMotion

This is a piece that I and @karsten-rippe.bsky.social discussing a lot, and a topic that is very close to my heart. The editors @naturerevgenet.bsky.social gave us the stage to do so, and the final version of our review is now available under this link: rdcu.be/erP1u

A short thread follows 1/n

My favorite chocolate in #lisboa: Chocolateria Ecquador. Truffles infused with orange or raspberry 😋. The wine may be cracked open soon 😉

Letting the Tagus whisper while I sip an old fashioned: amber stillness with a twist of reckoning. #lisboa

Lisboa by night

Olá #Lisboa—first move: run the Tagus. That river always hits different. Sun, breeze, city waking up… no better way to arrive. 🤩 #TagusRun #LisboaVibes #ArrivalRitual

I’ll say it since Daniel Stabley won’t: his NeuroImaging Lab didn’t just ride the wave they built it While others were still decoding the manual, they had the Developmental Neurobiology Dept MOSIACing like pros. Ain’t no edge but the cutting edge #MicroscopyMonday www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Happy to share our latest publication on subcellular myelin proteomics and structural changes in Alzheimer disease www.nature.com/articles/s41...

We’ve been testing out some different binding domains in the literature in different tandem repeat combinations. Hopefully we can preprint soon.

Our home-brewed PI3P and PI4P probes in neurons feels like blowing bubbles as a kid: fleeting, a little magical. I’m a Doubting Thomas at ❤️ & why I spend so much time learning to image & build probes. I need to see it to believe it. Too late for #fluorescencefriday but in time for #microscopymonday

Scientific research at its best: vibrant, always seeking better and more innovative solutions.

Must be beautiful….this time of year Memphis is always pyrotechnic lol

Here are the clouds subsequently rolling in

When the sky throws its own rave and you look up just in time 🤯⚡ Nature’s way of saying: “Look up, I’m not done yet.” #LightningFlex #SaturdayMotivation #SaturdayNight

We need that in our department
