#WCNH2024 was a fantastic meeting! I got such good ideas for follow ups from my talk . Javier Stern & team did a superb job organizing. Also, how special to close the meeting dancing with one of my fav people ever: Pr. Nancy Forger 😊❤️.


One of our former summer students is looking for a tech job-if we could, we'd hire him. In our lab, he learned confocal and immuno. At UAB, he was in Dr. Sofia Beas lab and learned many things mice. He is incredibly and impressively hard working-DM or reply if you want to connect!

What a surprise and honor! Thanks Science ATL for the award. STEM outreach to the youth is so important and I am so happy I was able to participate in your programs ❤️.

Looking forward to #SBN2024! I am able to attend thanks to SBN Tweets Elsevier Behavioral Neuroendocrinology Award 😊❤️. Also, our lab has 2 posters: 'P1.01 on microbiota and 🧠 development' & 'P3.42 on Cesarean birth and 🧠 effects'. Come visit us!

Thrilled to report that the Castillo-Ruiz lab will start this fall MSU Psychology. Interested in neurodevelopment 🧠, microbiota 🦠, and birth mode? Contact me! I am recruiting grad students and a tech.


Thanks for highlighting our work Science ATL. I highly recommend this program to the folks interested in science outreach ❤️.

Very sad to learn about the passing of my undergrad mentor Dr. Marta Williams Universidad Nacional Agraria La Molina. She was such an inspiration & force; a remarkable role model for Peruvian women in STEM. She encouraged us to follow our dreams. She will be dearly missed.
