Our neighbors and friends in the OBM lab in eLife today! They used scRNA-seq to characterize the development of the crista (responsible for sensing rotation). Little was known about this structure so read it to learn about new cell types! @OliviaMcdonogh elifesciences.org/articles/6…

Although cicadas and many other insects are edible and highly nutritious, it's important to note that people who have a known shellfish allergy, particularly to Crustaceans (🍤 , 🦀 , 🦞 , etc.) could potentially have an allergic reaction to eating cicadas as well. #BroodX

Get vaccinated, get paid & support science! The COVID-19 Prevention Network & Husky Coronavirus Testing are conducting a study to learn whether the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine stops the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19. Visit PreventCOVIDU.org for details.
ALT Research Study – Participants Needed! Researchers at the University of Washington (UW) are looking for students (18-26 years) to help evaluate COVID-19 VACCINES. Students in the Husky Coronavirus Testing are welcome to enroll! We are looking for UW students who will be on campus for the majority of the summer, have not previously had a COVID-19 infection, and have not yet received a coronavirus vaccine. Study partici

Tune in to @Sallywing #MM2020Virtual talk discussing the (present and the) future of 3D neuron reconstruction. It will include early results from our colab - the ICA project (drvtechnologies.com/post/drv…)
@BioStructureUW @UW @UWMedicine
#AImicroscopy #Aivia #DeepLearning
Recorded and uploaded my talk for 2020 Microscopy & Microanalysis meeting. I am exciting to share the current development of Intelligent Connectomic Analysis tool in #Aivia in collab with @DRVisionTech. Here is a teaser video showing 3D neuron reconstruction with AI prediction.

Big things happening over in the Steinmetz lab and in UW Neuroscience! Congrats, Nick! 🎉
@SteinmetzNeuro has received a Klingenstein-Simons Fellowship in Neuroscience, and has also been named a 2020 Pew Biomedical Scholar! Nick's lab explores how different brain regions cooperate to make decisions. Congratulations Nick!
