In the era of Trump 2.0, we're calling on all scientists and friends to advocate and unpack science in a public-facing way. This is much bigger than anyone of us. But if we all do one thing, imagine the cumulative impact!
It need not be a burden. More here, in @thetransmitter
Another resource to share: free and high-quality art for life sciences https://bioart.niaid.nih.gov/
Good quality drawings and schematics are very important to convey your science to others, although sometimes we scientists don't have time to make these, or cannot pay for tools like biorender. I really appreciate this initiative from NIH
Paper resubmission complete 🥂 
Now back to work on the other rebuttal
🚨 New Preprint 🚨 Ever wondered how the HPC supports learning across different contexts? This study, w @SaraASolla & @DisterhoftLab, uncovers a 'universal' memory code in the HPC—consistent across animals and environments! 🧵👇
Our lab is hosting the Halloween happy hour in the department. We are going to have a costume contest, so I put together a trophy that is a zombie hand holding a mouse skull for whoever gets the best costume. We used our 3D printing to get it done 👻
Next step is painting it so the hand looks more ghoulish
It took me ~a year to translate Neurodata Without Borders to linkml+pydantic with full abstraction over array/storage backend. Now that I did that, it is taking me ~hours to make interfaces to put NWB in SQL dbs, web APIs for editing and serving NWB datasets (where you can download arbitrary slices of the individual datasets instead of a bigass 100GB HDF5 file), and interconversion between hdf5, dask, and zarr.
Anyway open data in neuroscience is about to get real good.
