It was a pleasure to work with Birkbeck, University of London to record this short video, giving 3 pieces of advice for anyone navigating a career in science: 1. Find a good mentor. 2. Identify what you don't want... 3. Be true to yourself, trust yourself, and just go for it! #WomenInScience
Super grateful to be awarded a Biochemical Society travel grant to attend #BNA2023 British Neuroscience Association in April!! ☺️🧠 Here's to a big leap of faith/bit of a career jump into the neuroscience world. Looking forward to a future in this field and excited to see what's out there! 😊🤞
Day 2 at #BNA2023! My 🧠 is already full from day 1. The breadth of research and emphasis on credibility/reproducibility in neuroscience is incredible - very exciting times to be here! Very grateful and thankful to Biochemical Society for the travel grant to attend in-person ☺️
As my group is slowly approaching size > 1, it's time for the new lab website: volkovlab.com. Will be soon looking for a postdoc and a technician (both funded by Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research for 3 years). While the HR approve the official ads, feel free to reach out! RT is highly appreciated

My first-author paper is out today Nature Communications ! We investigated how oligodendrocytes produce myelin. Using volume EM, we characterized oligodendroglial ER (magenta) in developing myelin and explored nonvesicular lipid transport involved. #lipidtime doi.org/10.1038/s41467… (1/n)
