First toot! Who's here? You may know me from the bird app as the one who is obsessed with #cilia and #protists. Here is a YouTube vid (several years old) of some psychedelic #Chlamydomonas #cilia to prove it.
Here is my #introduction. I am a biologist interested in #neuroscience and the #evolution of cells and nervous systems. My research group studies #ciliated marine larvae from a whole-organism perspective, combining behaviour, #connectomics, #imaging, #CRISPR, #modelling and other approaches. We love marine #larvae, their #neurons, #cilia, and #neuropeptides.
