Great start to the 2025 CTTP with a talk on the WHO's perspective on how to improve clinical trials @cantrain.bsky.social

Reposting these #neurojobs after the nightmare of the Friday NIH announcement. If you are a recent graduate tired of the craziness and instability - look North.

Incredibly happy to share this co-first publication in the Lancet Global Health with #DaRos and #Aguzzoli guided by the brilliant @erzimmer.bsky.social

I strongly believe diversity is essential to advancing science. It enriches understanding, broadens perspectives and fuels innovation. To think otherwise is a missed opportunity! I've championed these values and remain committed to them. Let's foster diversity for a brighter future in science! 🧠

Today I met w/ my awesome team behind the podcast #SheHasAPhD to discuss reflections from S1 & plans for S2. 🎙️ In Feb we'll release a special episode reviewing last year ⏮️ - stay tuned. 👀 If you haven't heard about the podcast b4, our goal is to amplify the voices of #womenleaders in #science. ♀️

Wanted my first post to be this work🎉! My break into the single cell🧬 world to understand how anti-ABs affect the brain! What you dont see: the full year of submissions and edits that went into publishing this😅 Thank you @wilcocklab.bsky.social for your support! www.jneurosci.org/content/earl...

Fellow scientists: If you are going to make broad public pronouncements based on your results, please have someone check your math first. The general population is losing faith in science, and reversals like this are a big part of the problem.

Hey #SciSky community! I am conducting interviews for potential PhD students joining the lab. Do you guys have any advice about this process? You know, never done this before 🥲

Art train 🚂! Thanks for the tag, @victoriacorbit.bsky.social Here are some of my #brainart pieces 🎨 #neuroart #sciart Tagging @dawnhunter.bsky.social and @daniellebeckman.bsky.social next!

'70s samba is the sound track to many of these hectic mornings working on never-ending analyses. #SciSky #Brasil

I am so thankful that I came up in an academic environment that valued openness r/t secrecy. I have never worried about discussing my ideas with others, and those discussions have paid off greatly. I feel bad for trainees who learn to be secretive with their ideas - they are missing out on so much!

I’ve always had trans mates since the early 90s, when I was in the first lived experience pilot. It was seen as a threat, and we were utterly loathed, with the whole hospital waiting for us to break down (which, of course, happened). A trans nurse became our one ally. Difference supports difference.
