So close! The government actually needs to be funded 100% to stay open. Hope this helps.

I’m beyond proud to finally have this work by Mads out in the world! The first project we started as a brand new lab, by the first student to choose me as her PhD advisor, and everyone in the group contributed ❤️ It’s also great timing: Madi defends her thesis this Friday!

Core facilities, and the top-notch scientists who run and work in them, are an absolutely crucial support to academic research. Our ability to do cutting-edge science (and do so with rigor) often rests on their excellence. Instrumentation is useless without talented personnel!

Young Innovators issue? It’s out! link.springer.com/article/10.100… Young Innovators sessions? Friday Oct. 13 at 2 and 4pm in Room 434, Biomedical Engineering Society #BMES2023 ! Nominations for 2024 issue? Open now, until November 10! Shreya Raghavan Gabriela Romero Hua Wang Weaver Lab

Look at my amazing colleague, Dequina Nicholas !! She’s breaking barriers and doing absolutely fantastic science, and I love to see it 🔥

It was an honor speaking today in the CMBE Young Innovators session — thank you to everyone involved, and to everyone who came to support!

Truth. 👇 I was a postdoc w sangeeta bhatia (same on bsky). I joined her lab bc I wanted to learn how she is SO successful while also balancing life. Here is some of what I learned: 1. By far, the biggest reason: She is very smart. Like, mega smart. (Seems that should have been obvious but 🤷‍♀️😅)

I’m up. Ever since my sister’s accident, I haven’t slept a bit. Soooo here is a thread on how a clinical trial drug likely saved her life, and moreover how Black respresentation amongst Duke University Hospital’s surgery trial coordinators saved her life.

I will never recover from this student email.

There is a human tissue that builds itself up and breaks itself down every ~28 days using non-scarring wound healing and instead of studying that and learning everything we can about it we think it's gross and look for other less relevant models to understand wound healing.

"Racism produces subtle brain changes that lead to increased disease risk in Black populations" Our team’s research shows that the everyday burden of racism affects the function and structure of the brain. In turn, these changes play a major role in risk for health problems."

Absolutely wild that this is presented as something the drug companies are doing and not a law that the Biden admin passed.

Looking forward to welcoming Elizabeth Proctor as our guest and seminar speaker this Friday! Host: Lazzara Lab Seminar Chair: @MFallahiSichan

Big congratulations to one of our favorite collaborators, Dr. Xuemei Huang, as she brings her innovative vision to UVA School of Medicine as the new Chair of UVA Neurology ! UVA is getting a great one 💙

I have mixed feelings about this photo being taken after I’d been happy-sobbing for 10 minutes, but I MADE IT — tenured and promoted! Profoundly grateful to my lab, my mentors, my family, and the colleagues who wrote letters supporting me ❤️ stay tuned, more great things to come!

Congratulations, Nikki!! 🎉 this woman eats/sleeps/breathes neuroscience and is deeply committed to growing our community, not to mention having her own ground-breaking research portfolio. I can’t wait to see what the Penn State Neuroscience becomes under her leadership!! 🧠💃🏼
