🧠 CTE ≠ A concussion 🧠
A concussion is a short-term brain injury. CTE (Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy) is long-term brain degeneration from years of head trauma.
🛑 CTE builds slowly
❓ Can you get CTE from one concussion? Unlikely.
🔁 Repeated hits = Major risk factor. Prevention is key! #CTE #TBI

We're on the cover of @science.org this week. Awesome work by @florentwaltz.bsky.social. #CryoET is reaching crazy resolutions inside cells, and this is just the beginning. Fantastic interpretation of the proton motive force by @verenaresch.bsky.social. Always a pleasure making #SciArt with you!🧪🧶🧬🌾
In a new Science study, cryo–electron tomography captures the in-cell architecture of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, illuminating how the coordinated action of molecular machines drives life’s fundamental energy conversion.

Each of #NASAWebb’s four instruments are able to answer specific science questions. Three instruments have cameras, but all four can perform spectroscopy, which is used to study the details of what wavelengths of light objects emit or absorb: webbtelescope.pub/3uJUKoW 🔭 🧪

I have a new article out today with the homie @pereed.bsky.social in PLOS One, “Gender and Racial Bias Issues in a Commercial ‘Tone of Voice’ Analysis System”! In short, don’t believe devices that claim to tell you how you sound to other humans!

I also got to work with antimatter! Our group tested our first prototype detector in front of a positron beam at Jefferson Lab. We're testing our third prototype now in the same spot! ⚛️ 🧪
