Past couple of months in and out of hospital with a stubborn pulmonary infection — finally got the all-clear.
It has been a difficult time. Thank you for your patience.
I’m so sorry if I missed your email or DM, replying to everyone soon.

I wrote an article earlier in the week arguing that we need to give junior researchers more independence earlier, and this should be our focus, not moonshot mega projects led by senior researchers.
I was surprised how much agreement I'm seeing.
So next question: how do we do this?

Large-scale projects run the risk of stifling scientific independence. Instead, let’s explore alternative mechanisms of collaboration, writes @neuralreckoning.bsky.social.

Neuroscience needs to empower early-career researchers, not fund moon shots

Hey folks! I got a tattoo of my beloved PIEZO ion channel on my arm! Now I can show how they activate (flatten) under pressure by flexing—Will add a bit of performance art to my science talks 🧪🧠.
