Synapses may get all the glory, but join us cilia-philes for our @sfn.org Nanosymposium to learn about the role of cilia in modulating brain activity, behavior, and development.

Sunday November 16th 1-4pm SDCC Room 25A. Thrilled to chair with @konjikusicmia.bsky.social - we'll see you there!

If you are wondering why on earth would neurons need cilia you should be there👀
If you’re at #sfn25 you definitely don’t want to miss this nanosymposium on cilia, tomorrow from 1-4pm! Come learn about neuronal cilia, they do some pretty cool stuff!

Are you working on #CancerNeuroscience and presenting at #SfN? Let me know! I want to come see your talk or poster and the app is really not helpful for locating your info 🤓. Drop it in 🧵 please 🙏

If you’re headed to #sfn25 come by our session on cilia in the brain! Our goal: convince you all cilia in the brain are as cool as we think they are!

So, "no disciplinary reason" they say, giving a disciplinary reason. Got it.

I always thought Bhattacharya was dumb, but now I think he's Kennedy dumb, and I'm just wondering if the brain worms are contagious.
Jay Bhattacharya's plan for a new pandemic is for everyone to suddenly be healthy.

They came in and upended everything and then they complain that it’s disorganized?

It’s all gone belly up. Out of 20 mbuna, 2 remain. And my Green Terror died in my other tank. Frack.

To add to my week, I had a large mbuna cichlid die, and I missed it and then the tank crashed and another 12 died. Lost some of my original fish from setting up the office tank 2 years ago.

A new approach to pandemic preparedness:

1️⃣ Stop preparing for pandemics
2️⃣ Rewrite history of the last major pandemic
3️⃣ Go to the gym
