This! My “secondary” mentors were some of the biggest reasons for my success. I learned many things from them about my research and about science in general!

Please send all the good vibes to my big, handsome guy today as he has his front leg amputated due to a tumor! Having kids is tough 🥲

Today is the day! Headed back to Winston Salem for the first time since my move to the PNW. Excited to attend my (somehow) first Penry training and can’t wait to see my friends and former colleagues again! I am also going to eat so much food that I’ve been missing 🤫

This program on transgender inclusion in healthcare feels like a breath of fresh air to hear clinicians speak in this way about those of us in the LGBTQAI+ community! @nlrosendale Mackenzie “Z” L’Erario, MD LMSW American Academy of Neurology

post-conference exhaustion is its own breed of tired. excuse me while I sleep until Monday. 😴

So happy for all of my friends and former colleagues who have defended this semester! Special shout out to @LPaulSands1 who spent many days in the MEG lab with me while we collected data for his projects! 🎉🎈

Learning how and when to ask good questions is key! Whether working in R&D, medical, or another division, knowing appropriate, insightful ways to engage counterparts of all skill levels can make you stand out!

Co-authors be like "get rid of this section" My brother in Christ, you wrote that section in the previous draft

Just a reminder that trans/NB folks often fall victim to the compulsory presentations many queer people experience when growing up— many of us acted straight/cis because that’s all we knew. This is why visibility (at any age) is so important.

Landing in DFW means I’m keeping my eyes out in case I spot The Notorious EEG (M. Scott Perry MD) in the wild. 👀

Catching up on some podcasts and really enjoyed International League Against Epilepsy’s ‘Sharp Waves’ episode with @kswilcox about discovering new ASMs! Check it out if you haven’t heard it yet! 🧠💊

One of my favorite #histmed stories is the discovery of EEG by Hans Berger in the 1920s. #NeuroTwitter At age 19, Berger (1873-1940) fell off a horse. On the same day, his sister, miles away, sent a telegraph to ask if he was doing ok. 1/10

What a fantastic weekend at the LGS Foundation family conference! Hearing so many heartfelt patient and caregiver experiences really drives home why we do what we do. Hats off to Tracy Dixon-Salazar, speakers, & staff for such a great meeting. 🧠

It’s almost time for Child Neurology Society Meeting next week! So many good platforms and posters, hope I can catch them all. 🧠

Finally SFN bound and excited to be back for the first time since COVID!

Stop by my poster tomorrow to learn more about awake primate OPTOMEG— combining optogenetics and MEG to study the brain and kick the tires on some of our most important questions about MEG. #SfN2022

#AES2022 kicks off for me today! The excitement is real.
