Postdoc at UC Irvine. Interested in how and when muscle modulate work during dynamic locomotion. Human rights are essential.
Me to no one: "I can cover the introduction and methods in this talk in one slide a piece"
Narrator: She in fact, could not cover the introduction and methods in one slide a piece.

The day before a major holiday is the day you really see the parental traits your parents imbued in yourself. Take Ryan on his hands and knees scrubbing the floor for guests and me planning to cook for the next 8 hours.

This tumultuous year for me better mean next year is my year. All I gotta say. Been going through it and now I got deathly ill while trying to tend to my second sick dog in less than a months time with my husband traveling the whole time. Super fun.

Mia Goth and Lily-Rose Depp have this uncanny valley feeling about them and I just cannot handle looking at it on a screen. They are Tim Burton claymation come to life.

Come to my poster at SfN on Wednesday morning! I'll present my work on how the cerebellum uses internal models to control neocortical dynamics in a non-motor learning task. I'm biased, but I think it's pretty exciting! www.abstractsonline.com/pp8/#!/21171...

How am I supposed to give medicine to an elderly dog that has the strength of 10 men and I can’t man handle cause she just had half her insides removed? Seriously any notes appreciated.
