If you’re doing ALS research (or know someone who is), DM me!🤗
Finally, @kendallbclay.bsky.social & @taylormlanier.bsky.social will wrap up their time in the lab in the next year or so (😭) and are seeking postdoc fellowships (🤩 - Kendall in neural development, regeneration, etc. & Taylor in the biology of ALS). Get in touch with them - they are amazing! 5/5
Combinatorial mechanisms specify cellular location and neurotransmitter identity during regeneration of planarian neurons https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.05.23.655781v1

So if you know of anyone looking for a (super cool and passionate) postdoctoral trainee, in a lab with models for neurodegenerative diseases (bonus points for an ALS model), HIT ME UP! (4/4)
As a senior graduate student, I’m starting to identify potential postdoctoral opportunities. Though I love my worms, I’m excited to transition into a different model organism to ask questions about neurodegenerative diseases! (3/
I am collaborating with a colleague, Kendall Clay, to elucidate the genetic mechanisms required for regeneration and maintenance of dopaminergic neurons in planarians. My thesis work has focused on uncovering these mechanisms in the peripheral nervous system! (2/
Introducing myself on this platform! My name is Taylor and I’m a senior grad student in the lab of @awormwelcome.bsky.social at the University of Georgia! We use planarians to study how successful nervous system regeneration occurs🤗 (1/
Can grad students be added?😁
Can graduate students be added? Here’s a link to my PI’s website, where I am listed as a PhD candidate🤗 robertsgalbraithlab.org/people
