Sad that the summer conference season is almost over? Interested in #lipids and #lipoproteins? Save the date for the
@Kern Lipid Conference 2026, and join us in beautiful Breckenridge, CO, on August 10th-12th, 2026.

Here's my action figure! I didn't even need to "prompt" chatGPT to make the "unpublished data" folder the most prominent item 😅

More than ever we need to talk about the importance of our "basic research" in public and political forums. Kudos to #AnnaliseSturno and @neurohassell.bsky.social for getting out there and sharing their work on fructose metabolism and Alzheimers Disease at #Denver #Capitol

I continue to be blown away by the sub-cellular resolution that our new #Nanolive 3D explorer allows. Look at these #microglia go!

'What historical figure do you want to dress as?'
'The person that invented medicine'
(After some research 😅)
Here is John Nicholson, who helped to invent Ibuprofen. The research chemist who worked as a team, and didn't make much money from his major discovery.

A local science museum looking for support for a "Girls in Science" event, since the previous supporters have pulled out.

I made some posts explaining the impacts of the NIH freeze for my family and friends that don't work in science. Feel free to share.

This book is excellent for parents and science communicators alike! Although the cartoon comparison of human and rodent brains on the first page prompted my 6 yo to ask "why study mouse brains when they are so different to peoples?". Alright reviewer 2?!?!

The #GliaGathering @cuanschutz.bsky.social is growing! Excited to hear one of the "OGs" @thefrancolab.bsky.social talk today about #glia in brain development.

The tree is up. Those #microglia pop up everywhere these days!
