Y'all, I'm in this tweet! Won't do the where's Waldo thing, though (I'm too easy to spot).
Jokes aside, thanks to Network Glia @gliameeting.bsky.social for the stipend to attend #GLIA2025!

This is today! I will be representing the @navarrete-llinas.bsky.social lab at #GLIA2025 talking about astrocyte ensembles in memory and behavior. Go check it out!

Took a plane to Marseille this morning on my way to #GLIA2025. Landed in Nice instead because of a wildfire. At least I get to see some gorgeous views of the Côte Bleue from the train to Marseille. Could have been worse, I guess.

There are times when science and art collide. 🧪🎨 I once took these micrographs of astrocytes expressing CaMPARI-GFAP, a calcium indicator for taking snapshots of astrocytic activity. They reminded me of a firework display which just won first prize at SENC's #NeuroArt contest! 🎆 youtu.be/eyPI8r15db4

A voltage clamp recording of an astrocyte in response to increasing depolarization steps. The recording shows the characteristic flat I-V profile of astrocytes.

So I patched an astrocyte.

Impressive work by our very own @crismonteagudo.bsky.social on #astrocytes in THC-related impairments. 🧪🧠✨ Go show the preprint some love 👇🏼

Kicking off our Bluesky profile celebrating our newest publication in @natureneuro.bsky.social! Using our new tool AstroLight we demonstrate that a specific group of #astrocytes —an astrocyte ensemble— in the nucleus accumbens regulates cue-motivated behavior. Check it out!✨https://rdcu.be/d8qJi

We have a beautiful paper out in @natureneuro.bsky.social. Go check it out 👇🏼 #astrocytes
