Attending the NIH Endure conference. Looking forward to meeting awesome students! Thanks to the NIH for supporting this!

Enjoying a great meal with Subhojit Roy and Yuki Ogawa. Food and science- what else can you ask for?

A fantastic opportunity to get in on the ground floor of something great with Sebastian Werneburg!!

Congratulations to Ozlem Sert on winning second place at the 28th annual Texas Medical Center Neuroscience poster session! Spectrins spectrins and more spectrins! Congratulations to all the winners! So much great science.

Memorable experience for sure! My heart is overjoyed to see that BCM Department of Neuroscience is in the hands of awesome students and faculty that have preserved the essence of a very special program that focuses on fostering trainee development, collaboration and outstanding science.

We are delighted to share our work, now available in nature: nature.com/articles/s4158… Our scoring system can be accessed here: kinase-library.phosphosite.org Coming soon --> the tyrosine kinome and an improved system with many new functionalities & features! #TheKinaseLibrary #KL

A great start to our neuroscience program retreat in Galveston TX- an early morning bike ride with our amazing Neuroscience dept administrator Jay Villarreal.

25 years of fantastic contributions to graduate education. Our amazing Neuroscience Graduate Program administrator Wanda Kubeczka!

New preprint from the lab: using extracellular proximity biotinylation and CRISPR-mediated gene tagging, Yuki Ogawa and Brian Lim (and a stellar supporting cast) discover an old friend (Cntn1) has new and surprising functions at the axon initial segment. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

If you love AIS I have some more weekend reading to suggest... biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

The ‘axon initial segment ride’ with Christophe Leterrier at the EMBO neuronal cytoskeleton meeting in Santa Cruz, Chile. Great company, great science.

One of our own returning! She is going to be an awesome addition to our faculty!

Anti-Pan-Nav channel [K58/35R] Depositor: James Trimmer Purpose: anti-Pan-Nav channel recombinant mouse monoclonal antibody. Recognizes all vertebrate sodium channel isoforms. hubs.la/Q01Bqyp90

Congratulations to Victoria Palfini on passing her qualifying exam! Now on to do everything you proposed. I can't wait to see what you discover about axon initial segments.

My great friend and colleague Jeff Yau. A remarkable man sharing his difficult and ongoing experience. I've been (and continue to be) inspired by his inner strength, determination, optimism, and patience.

Let me tell you about peeing in a urinal… held by someone else. A 🧵 on learning to battle embarrassment as a patient and how fear (of shame) can impact treatment. #peepressure 1/

I am mostly silent on Twitter. But today I must post something: I met with three amazing and incredible women scientists I had the privilege of mentoring as PhD students in my lab. Dori Schafer, Shelly Buffington, and Tammy Ho. They helped make me who I am.
