Our paper is finally out in it's final form!

I am very happy to share that our work demonstrating that without Sst-Inhibitory interneurons many L4 excitatory projecting neurons mature as callosal neurons is out. It was a great collaboration with Felix Leroy and G. Perea lab. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

this might be the first time we’ve seen an I SHOULD’VE WON MVP revenge game from a guy who actually won the mvp lol

Exciting news! We'll be re-opening our application cycle one last time for our final FIRST hire! We plan on opening this week (week of May 20) so keep an eye out and help spread the word! #academictwitter #academichiring #unmfirst #nihfirst

Extremely excited to share our review on mature myelin dynamics out today! Ethan Hughes and I discuss myelin remodeling and turnover, mechanisms and functional implications. I hope folks will enjoy diving into this fascinating emerging field with us! nature.com/articles/s4159…

I am thrilled and honored to receive this Javits Award from NINDS, and incredibly grateful to all past and present members of my lab, as well as my mentors and colleagues in the field! DukeMGM Duke Neurobiology Duke Department of Cell Biology #radialglia

It begins today! Excited to start welcoming over 5,500 attendees to #2024NDiSTEM, kicking off a week of learning, mentorship, and community building. #Science #Culture #Community Learn more about SACNAS in this recent piece shared with Diversity In Action: mydigitalpublication.com/publication/?m…

🚨 The lab's first preprint is out! Led by rockstar graduate student Lauryn Higginson, we present the first cell-specific transcriptome analysis of the RNA exosome, a conserved RNase, in a fully developed Drosophila brain! #RNABiology #Neuroscience 🪰🧠 🧵 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

With all the amazing glia researchers on campus we recently expanded our “Myelin Meeting” to a “Glia Gathering”. Keep an eye out here for all the cool #glia science 🧪 coming out from our groups! You should be seeing some preprints from several of us very soon…

I need a Spotify Wrapped but for articles I never read this year, ranked by how many weeks I had the tab open without reading it.

Excited to share our work published this week! Led by myself and world class co-first Gustavo Della Flora Nunes working in the Ethan Hughes in collaboration with Dan Denman: nature.com/articles/s4146…. A short 🧵

BRAIN EVODEVO ALERT! So thrilled to share our newest articles about brain evolution, published by Science Magazine! Briefly, we have found that pallial circuits are formed by different developmental programs and comprise different neurons. Not all brains are the same!
