Now out in @eLife, our own Christof Koch, @sejdevries, and Josh Siegle take stock of the Allen Brain Observatory, its impacts on neuroscience, lessons learned, and remaining barriers. 🔗 elifesciences.org/articles/85550… #OpenScience #Neuroscience #BrainScience

Have you ever wondered how seals sleep at sea? The last chapter of my dissertation, now published in Science, illustrates the intricate sleep-spiraling behavior of northern elephant seals. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Can’t wait to have you join us, Xana! @UAZMedTucson

I’m so excited to share that I will be attending the MD/Ph.D program at the University of Arizona- Tucson beginning this June. Thank you to every person who acted as a guiding voice during this LONG process. Come to me for all your prickly pear needs in the next eight years!!

Do you know that astrocytes, like excitatory neurons, are organized into multiple layers across the cortical gray matter? But, astrocytes' laminar organization does not match the classic neuronal layers. Take a look at this nice paper nature.com/articles/s4159…

We had a blast this week with prospective members of the #MedCat Class of 2027. We gave them a taste of their future in medicine in the Arizona Simulation Technology & Education Center, where they practiced the healing arts on lifelike manikins. #MedCat2027 #FutureMedCat

Also ALL medical schools should follow suit and change their hooding policy. Medical school is no longer only for the wealthy or those from a line of doctorate degrees. As a first gen Latina, I’m successfully graduating due to my parents sacrifices and this is 100% for them

My medical school is allowing a family member to hood us at graduation and it honestly made my day. Can’t wait to walk that stage with my mamita linda 🥹🎓

Scientists at the @AllenInstitute are mapping the brain. What does that mean? I made a video to explain it 😊🧠

Love, love this piece

"You can find the role models you are looking for." 2022 chemistry laureate @CarolynBertozzi shares an important message to all who don't see themselves represented in mainstream science. Who is your role model? #IWD2023 #InternationalWomensDay #WomenInScience
