One unsolicited piece of advice for new #gradstudents. Don't settle on ALL of your #rotations before school starts. Use the first semester to explore. Talk to people! Check out labs and areas that you haven't considered! Go outside of your comfort zone! Let yourself be surprised!
Mmm okay I have definitely hit older age. Now my biggest worry going to conferences is have I packed all the meds I need to combat whatever discomforts may arise. 😞🙄😞🙄😞🙄

Huge faculty recruitment effort at the University of Chicago -- a division-wide, open-rank search looking to hire about 20 faculty across 5 research areas in biology. Come be our colleague!
Full announcement: uchicago.app.box.com/s/ckih9…
Phenomenal group and group leader! I’d join if I could!
Still hiring! Both roles below close within the next two weeks — please share with anyone who might be a good fit 🧠👇 @UKDRI @ImperialBrains

Lysosomal dysfunction drives a transcriptional and epigenetic signature found in disease-associated microglia in neurodegenerative diseases: @ImmunityCP cell.com/immunity/fulltext/S…
You know, thank you to all of the researchers who upload raw counts or even better, raw counts + normalized + the differential analysis results + adj. p values in supplemental data on GEO. #accessibledata

Made it back to home from #GRCNeuroimmune2025. My bag is still enjoying its international journey. Will miss the beautiful Italian landscape, fun science, and awesome people. Looking forward to 2027!
2025 #Neuroimmune #GRC in beautiful Italy! Come catch me at my talk Thursday AM. Thank you to Chairs @ZippFrauke, @IsaacChiuLab and Vice chairs @JenGommerman and @LukensJohnR for the wonderful meeting and the opportunity to present! We're currently seeking #postdocs too!

I am not normally an alarmist, but these are not normal times. This change would cripple research infrastructure at hundreds of US institutions, and threatens to end our global superiority in scientific research.

1) Since there is a lot of confusion about the reduction of the overhead rate on NIH grants to 15% (see here: grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/…) I'll do a little tweetorial (or X-torial?) about it.

NIH indirect costs fund the backbone of research: maintaining labs, ensuring safety, and supporting admin work. These are essential for groundbreaking discoveries. Drastic cuts to NIH indirect rates are detrimental to academic biomedical research.

#RethinkNeuroimmunology is a one-of-a-kind conference that feels more like an international family. The science and people are just spectacular. @jonykipnis and @IdoAmitLab know how to put on a conference!

Oh no - RIP Jim Simons @SimonsFdn. Such a visionary philanthropist who with his wife Marilyn Simons built the Simons Foundation into a powerhouse supporting mathematical and physical sciences, life sciences, neuroscience and autism research. Also a beloved trustee of @RockefellerUniv
It is with great sadness that the Simons Foundation announces the death of its co-founder and chair emeritus, James Harris Simons. Jim was an award-winning mathematician, a legendary investor and a generous philanthropist. simonsfoundation.org/2024/05…
