Attending a large conference for the first time is exciting, but the experience could be nerve-racking, especially for first-generation students. Here is some advice to help you navigate and take full advantage of the experience. 👇🏽

I am so excited to making progress in understanding Down syndrome using zebrafish. We are also incredibly grateful to NICHD News and the INCLUDE project for the support.

Cell biologists! This is a fantastic statistics primer custom made for you. Very practical, must-read! From Pollard lab five years ago: molbiolcell.org/doi/10.1091/mb…

The application for summer 2025 Grass Fellowships is now live at grassfoundation.org/fellowship-ove…! Applications are due November 15. Please share with promising early-career neuroscientists. The Fellowship provides 14 weeks of sponsored research support at Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) in Woods Hole, MA.

We created a comic book based on our research on the role of GJ channels and bioelectricity in neuromuscular development! This was an amazing collaboration with undergraduate art student Bentley Smallwood.🐟🔬⚡️ Read the whole version here: opentext.uoregon.edu/science-comics… #Zebrafish

Now that we're entering faculty job season, I want to reshare my ✨job search advice doc✨. It compiles all the super helpful advice I received from mentors & includes my own experiences on the market. Best of luck out there, everyone - you got this! 💪 helpimascientist.com/wp-content/upl…

📡🧵 Excited to release our preprint: Ultrack: Pushing the Limits of Cell Tracking Across Biological Scales doi.org/10.1101/2024.0… A tour-de-force by Jordão Bragantini, #Ultrack is a versatile, highly accurate, and fast ILP-based cell tracking software for 2D, 3D, and multicolor

As we're heading into PhD application season, I wrote a post with advice for applying to grad school, drawing from my experience on admissions committees. Please share with any aspiring PhD students that you know! brains-explained.com/advice-for-app…

This book was gripping, both a great story about molecular biology history and an enraging account of being a woman in research. Every scientist should read it!!
