I’ve put some real thought into the same dilemma: I have professionals following my Twitter. PLEASE let me remind my followers that this is a p e r s o n a l account. Yes, I primarily focus on science shit, but there is also gay and meme shit, which is like the WILD WILD WEST.

Another @biorxivpreprint from our lab! We systemically infected 5xFAD mice with mouse-adapted SARS-CoV-2 to parse out its impact on Alzheimer's neuropathology & its impact on CNS cell types using spatial transcriptomic imaging. Check it out below! 🧠🦠 biorxiv.org/content/10.64898…

Returned to Twitter/X to share my @biorxivpreprint with Dr. Lane's lab. We infected 5xFAD mice with a neurotropic mouse coronavirus to investigate how viral encephalitis would impact amyloid pathology and CNS cell types using spatial transcriptomics! 🧠🦠biorxiv.org/content/10.64898…

Postdoctoral researchers sponsored by the National Institutes of Health now toil longer than ever before, for less money, fueling a decline in neuroscience postdocs. By @katiemoisse thetransmitter.org/academia/…

Static pay, shrinking prospects fuel neuroscience postdoc decline

Postdoctoral researchers sponsored by the National Institutes of Health now toil longer than ever before, for less money. They are responding accordingly.

I had a long conversation with one of my postbaccs about which graduate schools in what states could now be unsafe for her as a Muslim Black woman and immigrant. I absolutely hate that it will never be a question of best research fit, but rather where will she have rights.

i just cannot stomach the idea of posting “representation matters” Filipino American History Month content when a literal holocaust is happening in Palestine. As a colonized people, we should be especially vocal about the horrors of colonial violence.

A well deserved recognition of the accomplishments and trajectory of this future professor of neuroimmunology! She’s on the postdoc market now, with 4y funding from this NIH fellowship, so microglia-philic labs in the US looking for the real deal should reach out!

Now that I have some time, let me tell y’all about the DISRESPECT that Black In Neuro experienced by SfN staff last night 🤬 We did an #SfN24 “sponsored social” and I am livid with how we were treated. I don’t care what you say to me, but you will NOT disrespect my team.

Your Brain Age is less about mechanical ticks & more about entropic lifestyle & environment. In our @NatureMedicine, brain clocks speed up due to dementia, exposome (economic inequality, pollution), gender-health disparities, & regional factors👉 nature.com/articles/s41591-0… 🧵1/6
