Feeling so lucky for the opportunity to train alongside such amazing scientist! Thank you to all the current and former K. Tolias lab members. I can’t imaging doing grad school with anyone else. I’m going to miss you guys!

The continuation of the NIH freeze “is unambiguously unlawful,” The money that Congress appropriates to federal agencies each year is intended to be spent. “If they’re holding it back for policy reasons,” Super said, “they’re violating the law.”theatlantic.com/health/archive…

Check out our new paper in @nature nature.com/articles/s4158…. We report genetic mechanisms of neural tube defects in patients. Spina bifida is also known as meningomyelocele (MM). Prior family-based and association studies found few linked genes, so we took a different approach.

After 7 years, thrilled to finally share our #MICrONS functional connectomics results! We recorded activity from ~75K neurons in visual cortex in a single mouse, then mapped its wiring using electron microscopy. To systematically characterize neuron function, we built the first

BYU PhD student Suguru Onda just had his student visa revoked without notice. He’s being told to go back to Japan within 15 days because of his alleged criminal history. But he only has two speeding tickets and a fishing citation from 2019 that was dismissed. KSL NewsRadio

REQUEST FOR INPUT/OPINIONS I would like to purchase a dPCR machine but am not sure if I should go with Qiagen, BioRad, or ThermoFisher. Does anyone have any experience with dPCR machines they like or dislike? Please comment below with your thoughts! Thank you 🙏🏽

We will likely be looking for someone with expertise with optical methods in vivo, cranial window surgeries in mice, analysis of 2P imaging data (especially ML-based), viral approaches. Nothing posted yet, but I know there are good people looking, so please reach out.

Special shout-out to my amazing mentor Kim Tolias. Incredibly fortunate for the opportunity to train in her lab alongside Topher Cronkite. Thank you both, and all the amazing members of the K. Tolias lab, for constantly encouraging me to pursue the best science possible!

Does anyone have recommendation for expansion microscopy protocols that work on methanol fixed cells in culture as well as brain slices?

Grateful for the support I’ve received from the IMBS Program and the Department of Neuroscience throughout the years. Thank you!
