Starting off 2026 with two new awards from the @americanheart.bsky.social for research into the role of high salt diet and alterations in brain circuitry that regulate blood pressure. Excited that the AHA continues to believe in my lab’s work. Thank you to all who helped me get here!

Does anyone have 3D printer files for objects for the novel object recognition test for mice, and are willing to share?

Also, happy holidays

Thought about doing something a little different this year for our lab holiday get together. It was fun 😁 The lab enjoyed it and suggested it again for next year.

When people celebrate the individual genius of folks in science, they should also
mourn the collective loss of genius of folks who were actively discouraged or disadvantaged from a career in science because of the same person(s)

The NIH budget will INCREASE by $400 million — not slashed by 40%, as Trump proposed — according to a proposal by Senate appropriators, says Sen Murray.

"Some have asked if there will even be an NIH by [2029]. The commmittee's resounding message is yes—Congress has your back", she says.

In a study of professors, women got 378 new work requests over 4 weeks vs 118 for men. Women spent more time on service, advising & teaching; men on research. Orgs should track who is taking extra duties & ensure they are rewarded and distributed fairly. www.forbes.com/sites/kimels...
