I want to highlight the contribution of the 🌟trainees🌟 who helped with this project - @EmineTheStudent, who took on the herculean effort of aligning and fitting the thousands of mEPSCs in the dataset, and @Chris_Dedek, who helped patch in human tissue and helped with analysis!

What an adventure! After collecting many ID badges over the years, I've just picked up my ID for the University of Waterloo, where I'll be starting a lab at @UWPharmacy!

This just in: There are better ways to perform nociceptive behaviour tests! Read the latest @_TheTransmitter article highlighting the importance of reducing variability, including our work in the @PrescottLab! thetransmitter.org/methods/robots…

Awesome work! Congrats @IshmailSaboor, @justin_burdge and the team.

1. Excited to share our improvement of pain testing in rodents. No more back-breaking inconsistent poking of mouse paws. We present the ARM (Automated Reproducible Mechano-stimulator). 1/7 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Check out this great summary of our latest work in @NeuroCellPress on high-frequency #SpinalCordStimulation. ⚡️ Thanks @MCapogrosso and @scott_lempka!

Together with an Evan Roger and @scott_lempka we published today a preview to the beautiful work from @PrescottLab detailing the effects of High-Frequency spinal cord stimulation on sensory axons! We need more of these works in the field! #neurotech authors.elsevier.com/a/1iZ6Z3BtfH99…



Hey you! 🫵 check out this work from the @PrescottLab led by the talented @laurmedlock

Our latest #preprint on touch encoding in rodent mechanoreceptors is out now! 👈 🔗 biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Many thanks to the huge, collaborative effort from the @PrescottLab that spans (most of) my PhD! 🥳(@Chris_Dedek @AHalawa99 @SickKidsNews @bme_uoft) (1/4)

A potential game-changer at NIH. If we want Canada to compete, we need to step it up urgently! @CIHR_IRSC @cafreeland

An NIH advisory group announced today that they're recommending the agency boost its minimum #postdoc salary to $70,000, up from the current $56,484. Many postdocs feel "underpaid and overworked," a co-chair said. My latest for @ScienceInsider: science.org/content/articl…

Our study on PIEZO2-dependent rapid pain is now on biorXiv! Exciting collaboration with @OtmaneBouchatta, @saadsnagi and many others. I'm thrilled to see this out, it has been a great journey through many fascinating discoveries. Dig into the tweetorial and enjoy the study!

Just out our new research paper! We identify PIEZO2-dependent rapid pain system in humans and mice. The work led jointly by @OtmaneBouchatta and @M_Brodzki in a close-knit joint effort of @saadsnagi and @SzczotLab groups. 🧵 1/10 👇doi.org/10.1101/2023.1…

Our latest #SpinalCordStimulation work from the @PrescottLab is out now in @NeuroCellPress 🥳 Incredible work by @Sagalajev_B and the whole team! I was happy to be included in such a collaborative (and long-anticipated!) project.

Five years in the making and our #SpinalCordStimulation work by @Sagalajev_B and amazing collaborators is finally published @NeuroCellPress! 🤩 Read it here: tinyurl.com/4cs5zrkv #PainResearchForum #Pain #ChronicPain #Neuromodulation

Hello, I’m RAMalgo the Robot! 🤖 I’m here to automate your pain behaviour work, increasing throughput and reproducibility. I come from the @PrescottLab and you can read my preprint below. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Had a ton of fun and lots of great feedback! Definitely need to give props to @AnnemarieDedek @EmineTheStudent @Chris_Dedek though as they are the real drivers of this project. 😊

@mikehildebrand7 going back to his root and presenting his own poster!!! #sfn2023 @SfNOttawa @NeuroCarleton

No More GIL! the Python team has officially accepted the proposal. Congrats @colesbury on his multi-year brilliant effort to remove the GIL, and a heartfelt thanks to the Python Steering Council and Core team for a thoughtful plan to make this a reality. discuss.python.org/t/a-steering-c…

There’s over 1.4 million kilometers of undersea fiber-optic cable in the world To put that in perspective, if you laid out all the undersea fiber optic cables and connected them together end-to-end then wrapped them around the Earth your website would stop working.
