One of the best parts of 2025 is I have finally discovered battery powered heated slippers. My yearly 6-month long battle with Reynauds is officially over (as long as I am at home).

Now at my 3rd #Neurotrauma meeting here in Philly this year! Not presenting this year but volunteering and representing. It's been a fun and interesting experience on the volunteer end. #NNS2025

4 years ago I moved to Philly for graduate school. My mom is visiting me currently and showed me this picture of a moment between my dog and I from the move 4 years ago.

Improved my F31 score by 11 points from the first submission. Don't know if it is good enough for funding still, yet a relief to see actual improvement.

I'd do anything for this face, though

Some good signs from Stand Up For Science Philadelphia yesterday

So many things over the last week just keeping me in a constant state of either anxiety or just anger that a meltdown over the mildest inconvenience might be imminent. I've been cuddling with my dog a lot and that helps some

My Louisiana dog has loved going out into the snow ever since he first saw it after moving out of New Orleans in late 2020. The snow storm today was a bit rough but he was zoomin' anyway

No, I am definitely *not* going to check the status of this before March 6th. Not even once....

In honor of my recently passed friend, who was one of the smartest people I ever knew, and so supportive of my academic interests: I share the single pic I think exists with both of us in it, but has lowkey been one of my favorite pics for the last 8 years.

As my first post ever on bluesky after joining several months ago, I'll say what a great time I had talking about TBI, affective behavior, neuropeptides and the PVT at #SfN2024 this year. #SfN #SfN24
