Thanks. It’s a biopic rather than a documentary and I agree that Ben’s is an important story to tell. @shendy49.bsky.social

Following a suggestion from @benecal.bsky.social I will refer to these threads as "skeetorials" and will use this gif logo.

Today's skeetorial is about the NIH Director's New Innovator Award with three different heroes (all in government).

The Ben Barres biopic Ask The Question movie is now on BlueSky

@atqmovie.bsky.social
Pamela got way more than she bargained for. I was not able to help much with Science magazine ("Let us know when the movie comes out.."), but I sent a long email full of Ben stories and the deep admiration I feel for Ben.

More information about the movie project is at

More from Ben Barres...

In 2006, Ben published a commentary in Nature entitled "Does Gender Matter?". This commentary was prompted by Harvard President Larry Summers comment that women would not advancing because of innate ability. Needless to say, Ben disagreed.

Does Gender Matter?
The suggestion that women are not advancing in science because of innate inability is being taken seriously by some high-profile academics. Ben A. Barres explains what is wrong with the hypothesis.

If you don’t know about Ben Barres’ scientific legacy, here is a magnificent recounting of just one facet. Ben Barres was a true pioneer in so many different ways (Barres’ demonstration of immune complement mediated synaptic pruning in brain development is 🤯)

And if you do, please help document it!
It has been a great pleasure to get to know Pamela and to help her continue Ben's legacy.

If anyone knew Ben or has Ben stories, please contact Pamela at @shendy49.bsky.social or at pamela@picagency.com . She is still finishing up the script.

Thanks for helping share Ben's amazing legacy.
