Sure! Lab-raised juvenile rats quickly learn how to hunt crickets and this causes slow, but persistent increased plasticity in binocular visual cortex (V1b): in both firing rates & connections (spine density). So learning drives V1b increases in V1b activity & may be a site of skill consolidation

High-resolution #CryoET provides ‘compelling’ evidence for the true 3D architecture of glutamatergic synapses: a complex ‘synaptoplasm’ rather than the textbook postsynaptic density.

Seeing these enormous crowds gathered outside to protest Donald Trump, I am reminded of how Donald had to move his inauguration *inside* the Capitol because he was afraid (rightly) that the crowds outside would be too small.

Science makes us stronger, healthier, and more prosperous. My heart is hurting today for those NIH, CDC, FDA employees who dedicated their lives to supporting science and now have lost their jobs

This Saturday - April 5 - noon to 4pm @ Colorado State Capitol in Denver (or find an event near you)
We are excited to announce our official partnership with @indivisible.org for the National Day of Action on April 5th!
