I'm once again looking for cool Drosophila neurobiology images to feature on the cover of CSH Protocols. Ideally, something related to electrophysiology, but anything neuro should work! 😊 Let me know!

do I know any neuroscientists on this platform? we're hiring a neuroscientist come help us build a biohybrid BCI please share if you know neuroscientists

The Allen Cell Structure Segmenter, an #openscience python-based toolkit, help #cellscience researchers navigate complex images of cells by automatically capturing the boundaries of structures. Access at: allencell.org/segmenter.html

Activating just 20 neurons in M1 can recreate a movement... if the population activity is right. Really interesting work from the Komiyama lab in honor of An Wu.

I'm on the Cancer Genetics study section and I spoke to our SRO - he said that as of right now, the February meeting is still happening as planned. So, I think that claims that all NIH study sections have been cancelled are not accurate, at least at this time.

Are you a UCSD undergraduate student interested in paid neuroscience research? Apply to the CoB-KIBM Scholars Program by March 31st! No prior research experience required!

According to a senior CDC official, some of the pages that were removed on Friday have been reinstated due to backlash from the scientific community and the public. Keep speaking up, it matters!

As a leader in my lab & various initiatives, I’ve made my stance clear—my commitment to DEI is unwavering. I won’t back down or shy away, even as others do. I’ll continue to uphold and advocate for these values.

Last night my brilliant friend with 20 years of expertise in Neuroscience including a decade at NIDA was fired because she was recently promoted for her outstanding performance and it triggered the probation period. This is not making NIH more efficient, this is not making us

In a special edition of her “How to teach this paper” column, Ashley Juavinett dr. ashley juavinett explains how to best educate students about how the business of scientific research actually works. thetransmitter.org/how-to-teach-t…

Thank you, dr. ashley juavinett for the wonderful article on how to teach about science funding! I must admit that even if I did write grants (even got funded) during my PhD, I never learnt about science funding, so this really scratched an itch! thetransmitter.org/how-to-teach-t…

Scientists are now organizing events, called Stand Up for Science, on 7 March in Washington, D.C., and state capitals. So far, they have attracted more than 100 volunteers from some 30 states who are hoping to rally support for research as a public good. scim.ag/41jRwd1

Huge cancer breakthrough! mRNA vaccine (similar to COVID vaccine tech) shows stunning results against pancreatic cancer! 75% of responsive patients STILL cancer-free at 3 yr, normally 80% recur. Could revolutionize treatment for one of deadliest cancers! Funded in part by NIH

I'm quoted in this article on how NIH is still blocked from funding new grants. This sabotage makes no sense. Nearly every medicine or treatment you've ever received has roots in NIH-funded research, and every $1 of NIH spending generates $2.46 in returns. wbur.org/news/2025/02/2…

Doing a PhD or Postdoc in neuroscience? These courses will improve your future papers. By a lot.

If they can handcuff a U.S. Senator for asking a question, imagine what they will do to you.

Let's talk about what happened today.

The Stanford University biosciences affirmation taken by all of our PhD grads is inspiring, with pledges to: 1) Do science with rigor, integrity, and uncompromising respect for truth 2) Show kindness and compassion to colleagues 3) Show honesty and respect to the public 4) Place public

The Mills lab is hiring!! We are looking for a part-to-full time technician to assist with mouse behavioral and imaging experiments in our lab! utah.peopleadmin.com/postings/183950 Check out themillslab.com for more information about the posting and our research!

Why do astrocytes turn bad? After testing thousands of different molecule combinations, Shane Liddelow cracked the code: Three cytokines are to blame. Here’s how to break down this 2017 molecular biology paper for your students. By dr. ashley juavinett thetransmitter.org/how-to-teach-t…
