The ribbon cutting ceremony for the Neuroinflammation and Immunomodulation Lab at @PennNSG! 🚀 When the stores are out of ribbon, you use a neuron! We're ready to dive into groundbreaking research to understand and harness the immune system after brain injury.

I presented my last poster as a postdoctoral fellow at NNS last week. It feels like the end of an era 🥲

New in Acta Neuropathologica @SpringerNature, Penn researchers used a clinically relevant swine model of concussion to explore potential sex differences in the extent of axonal pathologies. @hailong_song @dkcullenlab @KateWofford @ASchneiderMDPhD ➡️ spr.ly/6016jeXow

It's tenure-track biomedical academic search season and "chalk talks" are right around the corner. Chalk talks are not something we "teach" our trainees and most postdocs are unprepared for them as a result. Here are my Chalk Talk Pro Tips: rockefeller.edu/research/upl…

While today’s terrible display of terror and meanness shakes us, let’s remember: @ossoff, Jewish son of an immigrant & @ReverendWarnock, first Black Senator from Georgia, will join a Catholic POTUS & the first woman, Black + Indian VP in our nation’s capital. God bless America.
