Happy International Day of Women in Science. The National Science Foundation’s list of flagged words includes both “Women” and “Female.”

Extremely happy to share our manuscript jointly authored by me and the amazing Lyndsay Osso! An awesome collaboration between the @ethanhugheslab.bsky.social , Dan Denman and Autobahn Therapeutics. www.nature.com/articles/s41... 🧵

How I feel in lab meetings

some great starter packs for the #glia, #astrocyte, #oligodendrocyte, #microglia, #neuro researcher: gliasky, astrocytesky, microglia But if you also like interactions between celltypes, please help this starter pack get started. Maybe someone can connect all of us in a feed? go.bsky.app/MHtJzeC

This just out from grad student Samantha Bromley-Coolidge with help from Regis University undergrad Diego Iruegas. By the way, Regis has an awesome neuroscience program. If one of their students applies to your grad program, give them a close look! authors.elsevier.com/a/1k7nr14Yy4...

By popular demand: the Axon Degeneration starter pack. Definitely incomplete so let me know who I missed. go.bsky.app/5BH6mBE

Didn't see one for Neuroscience yet; allow me to oblige

Constantly teaching people about Vorführeffekt 🇩🇪

Oligodendroglia starter pack! Missing many, please share and comment below to be added. Go team Oligo 🧠🦋! go.bsky.app/JgL2evN

New work from Yasmine Kamen shows that differentiating oligodendrocytes are filled with the zymogen procaspase-3. This provides a specific marker for new oligodendrocytes and suggests a role for this pathway in oligodendrocyte fate decisions. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

I am really enjoying the surge of people to bluesky but still kind of missing the VERY early career group of people! (Aging in academia is a funny thing) - I went ahead and made this starter pack go.bsky.app/Jq8YaQM - if you would like to be removed/added please let me know

Yay!! We finally have a glia starter pack 🧠 🎉

And here’s the rest! A list of ECRs in the #zebrafish community 😎 Reach out if you think you should be added 🙏 🧪 go.bsky.app/HwxuHey

Came to check in on the hype and tbh i need to start seeing more shitposting to take this place seriously

Me going back to lab after submitting my thesis🫣

My image made it onto the cover!! 🔬 #neuroskyence #academicsky #phdsky

"However journal-level metrics fail to identify up to 90% of the equally well-cited papers in the biomedical research literature, controlling for field and year of publication"

Did you know? Zebrafish are more closely related to fish than to zebras. #ZebrafishFunFacts 🧪

Check out our new paper on mouse myelinating Schwann cell dorsal root ganglion neuron cocultures! #neuroskyence #PhDSky #AcademicSky (one day I shall remember these hashtags in the first place but apparently today is not that day😅)

Really excited to share our new paper!! We describe a detailed protocol for setting up dissociated mouse myelinating Schwann cell dorsal root ganglion neuron cocultures in microfluidic chambers, and use this model to investigate axon degeneration. journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/...

Mark(@sanbomics.bsky.social) put together a really nice video & walkthrough on using alevin-fry/simpleAF to process your single-cell RNA-seq data. If you're doing processing of such data, I recommend checking it out as a transparent & open alternative to CellRanger (& way faster) t.co/Hu9ueRduQ9! 🖥️🧬

Post PhD thesis submission project: finding a new beautiful location to read all the fun books I haven’t had time to read over the past few months every single day☀️ #PhDSky #AcademicSky #neuroskyence

Time to figure out if it’s worth migrating👀
