As an academic writing coach, here are the 7 most common mistakes I see researchers make when writing the Introduction section of their paper. A thread. 🧵 #newPI #AcademicTwitter

Here is our new preprint showing how local circuits in the superior colliculus can generate visual center and surround interactions. We also show a way to crack local circuits for their contribution to global function. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Arvind Iakovos Lazaridis @meletislab

Leaving academia for industry

Panellists explored ongoing international funding opportunities, the challenges of global collaboration, the imbalance across continents of accessibility to funding, building funding partnerships and how to get the brain further at the top of the funding priority lists #IBRO2023

Proud to share our collaboration in the latest Cell paper led by Hanjie Li. The study presents an immune cell atlas & the dynamics of human macrophage specification in prenatal development. doi.org/10.1016/j.cell… (1/11)
