Saw these ducks yesterday, but I was too far away and without binoculars - looks to me like either ruddy duck or bufflehead, thoughts from fellow birders? Boston area! 🪶🦆 #birding #bostonbirds #birdsky

A cackling goose was reported in my area on eBird so I've been taking close looks at the geese but so far only Canadian geese to be seen 🪶🦆 #birding #bostonbirds #birdsky

I love these two cormorants who hang out at my local pond in the morning to bask in the sun 🪶🐦 #birding #birdsky #bostonbirds

There was a veritable smorgasbord of birds at my park today! Mergansers, cormorants, a hawk, a woodpecker, buffleheads, and of course the regulars: geese, mallards, and cardinals ❤️🪶🐦🦆 #birding #birdsky #bostonbirds

Today's bird is the common grackle who flew down into the grass next to me when I was walking through the park! Love the iridescent feather colouring 🤩🪶

I saw the much coveted (to me) male wood duck today! Before this I'd only seen the females, so I was super excited! 🦆🪶 Also pictured is a duck that was sleeping so I couldn't properly see it's markings but I think it might be a ring necked duck, and a Canadian goose. #birding #birdsky #bostonbirds

Caught a red bellied woodpecker in the park today getting a nice meal out of a tree! #birding #birdsky #bostonbirds 🪶🐦

A far away ring necked duck on the pond today! A new addition to my life list :) 🪶🦆

Transcription factor over expression prior to inducing the mouse model of MS resulted in sustained neuronal survival, axon integrity, and visual function!

We found some similar changes in neurons from patients with MS, including enrichment of genes associated with senescence at the RNA level and DNA damage by immuno staining.

First, we collected neurons from a mouse model of multiple sclerosis and found that their transcriptomes resembled naturally aged neurons. They also were enriched for genes associated with cellular senescence and aging.

Been doing a lot of new things in my new lab, so it's great to just be imaging a regular IHC on a microscope I'm familiar with again, getting pretty pictures
