1. I feel like this is such obvious advice that it's taken for granted & so no one says this to young scientists but READ PAPERS, read all the papers. As you move up in your career you'll have a lot less time to do this. Read everything that appeals to you not just in your field

How does the spinal cord produce locomotion? And how do interneurons cell types relate to motor function? Come see our Posters: Monday 8-12: J17 and J18 and read our new preprint biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… #sfn2024 #SfN24

Please follow this talented and lovely guy who worked with the great @MartinMlauritz and now working with @MaiNedergaard! He is currently doing some amazing 3D-EM analyses focusing on vascular and immune cells! There are several BioRxiv papers to look at already 👀
Stunning 🔬 images of endothelial cells by @MontagneLab! 😍 The elongated ↔️ vs. rounded ⚪ nuclei perfectly capture what I aimed to illustrate in my recent review 📝: sciencedirect.com/science/ar…. See also 🐦 🧵: xitter.cf/SorenGrubb/status/1347… 🌟

No one knows why 🧐? Seriously @Nature 🤣? 1. Publish or perish 2. Inbred system 3. Biased assignment of (few) resources (rich get richer) 4. Current model of peer reviewing 5. Assumption that Quality = Impact Factor = Success 6. Trends dictated by for-profit publishers
