It rarely happens these days, but I managed to clear my inbox! I keep all unanswered emails in my inbox, and immediately file them away into folders once I have responded. It pains me to have an inbox that fills 1 page on my screen.

It will probably last for 5 minutes, but I will take the win!

This is such a great idea for reading evals!
currently at the university whine & wine, where we read our student evals, do dramatic readings of the bad ones & boo people who got no bad ones

in my YA Lit class we read a book where a character killed himself for being gay

so I talked about being gay

that was apparently very inappropriate

New version of the neuron humming bird. It is composed of 12 independent #neuron cells manually cut out of wood. This piece will be donated to @SfNOttawa for an auction 🇨🇦. The back is bubinga wood. The humming bird is made out of walnut, padauk, maple (obviously 🍁) and cherry woods.

Just standing here, asking reviewers for fellowships to double check when an assistant professor started their lab and ask, 'well what might have happened early on in that process that could have slowed down publications?'

My laboratory at Université Laval in Québec City, Canada, is looking for a postdoc to study how neuromodulatory systems impact cortical processing during foraging behavior. This fully-funded position offers a collaborative environment in a great city. More info👇

Is it a bad omen if not one, but two birds hit the window during our faculty meeting?

Spotted: Uber and Lyft drivers hanging out together in a parking lot, but not accepting ride requests. They're likely working together to time-out requests so that demand looks higher than it is, driving up prices.

if you weren't touched by Scott's talk about his experience using motor and sensory BCI, did you even attend IFESS at #RehabWeek2025?

See what I did there?

If you have an interest in non-human primate systems neuroscience and/or imaging esp. if it relates to development or learning, call me! These are major chair positions that come with at least $4M or $8M over 8 years, depending on career stage.

I don’t know which academic needs to hear this but yes you should absolutely email other academics just to tell them you enjoyed their article/book/chapter. Just do it. Don’t overthink it.

Hello So-and-so, just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed ‘Title’. Hope you’re well. Best, You.

Done.
