On this day 2 years ago, I was heading out on my first job interview (at my current institution)! I was so freaking nervous. To those setting out on that journey this month, have confidence! You made it this far. You are a rockstar. Now show them how bright you shine!

...and tonight, cookies!

Score! Our local seafood shop had fresh eel! Dinner's looking good tonight!

Unbelievably thankful for being able to work alongside such a supportive, smart, enthusiastic group of scientists! Happy Holidays from the Higley Lab!

Alrighty, who's ready for a 5 hour swim meet (where my son participates for a total of 3 minutes)?

📢The YC-SCAN² has awarded 14 grants 💰 to researchers, including @yaleneuro.bsky.social's Nicola Micali & @mhigley.bsky.social 👨‍🔬🥼, for their work focused on understanding the impact of cannabinoids on neurodevelopment! Read More Here 👇

@pjenkinslab.bsky.social and I wrote a review on the axon initial segment. We tried our best to discuss the state of the field and provide our perspective (and resolution for) some current sticking points. Hope it's useful! doi.org/10.1152/phys...

Super cool new work from lab led by Hadas Benisty and Dan Barson. Time-varying cross-correlations between cortical areas/cells provide unique info about fluctuations in mouse behavior, similar or greater than that present in activity fluctuations. Check it out: rdcu.be/dsrzd

Cardin/Higley labs out for dinner at SFN! A few folks missing, but great to meet up outside work!

Hi All- Just welcoming myself to this here community after arriving from “the other place”. Hoping the (neuro)science community keeps growing!!
