We’ve been doing a lot of 2P axon imaging in the lab over the last couple of years. We (Anqi jiang and Chong Zhao) thought it would be useful to the community to formalize how to extract real signals from noisy neural structures much smaller than somas. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Were you postdoc on the faculty job market May 2024 - May 2025? Are you a new assistant professor who landed your position (any field!) in the past year? We want to hear from you about your experience on the faculty job market.

If you knew all of what I went through as a postdoc, you would understand me better. Therapy helps, but sometimes I fall into this space of defensiveness and fear. When you’ve been in a space where you’re not safe (physically, emotionally, intellectually), it takes work to heal.

Looking forward to visiting Mount Sinai Friedman Brain Institute later this month to share my postdoc work—thanks for the opportunity!
