This is the most relevant article to NIH and research cuts I’ve seen. Imagine if this was today , how many people would be saying “Why are we studying Gila Monsters and their impact on diabetes ? That’s wasted money !” globalnews.ca/news/9793403...

There is one True Skill that defines all basic neuroscientists, and that is the ability to copy and paste arrowheads from a lil green picture of cells to their lil red picture of cells

Cinnamon Toast Crunch is referenced in every single one of my papers I tend to ask for it to be cited appropriately (always) when I review, too.

Health insurance industry PR is working overtime right now diverting blame to physicians for claim denials and rising costs. I feel compelled to remind everybody that Optum (UHC) is the largest employer of physicians in the US. We have never had less power in healthcare than we do right now.

I hate seeing Bluesky becoming overrun with follower-chasing accounts that post a mix of unattributed photos, AI dreck, and bad photoshop jobs. Fortunately, there are block lists: bsky.app/profile/maur...

No matter how you choose to celebrate, remember to be the annoying science nerd at the thanksgiving table telling your loved ones that turkey doesn't have enough tryptophan to make you sleepy. They'll love it.

This is one of my all-time favorite figures. It shows the size comparison between a retinal bipolar cell and a cortical pyramidal cell in a mouse. Scale bars are great and all but sometimes the sizes just don't compute. Masland. (2012). The Neuronal Organization of the Retina. 🧪 #neuroskyence

Seems... bold to try to go from fMRI to cell types. Bit too early for our technological era IMO, not interpretable. Still, nice to see these attempts. The cell-type underpinnings of the human functional cortical connectome www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Our new paper in @natureportfolio.bsky.social shows entorhinal grid cells adapt their representations to a new environment in one-shot and derives a model that fuses landmarks & motion to predict the detailed grid rep before the mouse enters the new environment! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

🌟 Cai Lab Nature (@natureportfolio.bsky.social) paper alert! In work led by Joe Zaki, we find that rest periods after learning not only stabilize new memories BUT ALSO integrate new memories with older ones from days past! (1/10) Read it here: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Stephen Zhang and the team found that in vivo peptide release and signaling gradually enhances responses of satiety-promoting hypothalamic neurons to each bite of food. These consequences of each bite take minutes to manifest, and could help explain why slow eating enhances satiety. rdcu.be/dZlI3

Tip for our "leaders". Your op-ed about how "science shouldn't be political" isn't going to save us. It never has, and it certainly never will when the politicians reject evidence and counsel. Just don't write the op-ed, and do yourselves a world of good.
