Public Service Warning

Mastodon has a very big surge of new users right now. There's no way to tell if it will be sustained, but at this early point it looks similar to Nov 18 when when Musk pulled the employee purge.

It is very challenging for system administration to accommodate so many new users. If your server starts to struggle, it is not broken and will get sorted out.

We're all in this together. It's our social network. Be patient. What we are building is amazing.

Live-cell imaging of EB3-GFP tagged is amazing. Enjoy and follow the plus ends of microtubules (yellow) in the network of tubulin (magenta).

Happy #FluorescenceFriday !

My lab in Toronto is still looking for a postdoc to hunt for Legionella phages. Two years of funding and the chance to work alongside academic and industrial partners. Metagenomics, synthetic biology... Spread the word, reach out if interested. (Motivated post-bacs may also be considered if they can commit to a 2 yr term.)

I assume most data savvy folks were probably the first to leave Twitter, so…

My institute @SILS_UvA just posted this vacancy for a Full Professor Data Analysis in the Life Sciences.

vacatures.uva.nl/UvA/job/Full-P…

Spread the word and the vacancy.

Deadline for applying is the end of January 2023.

Tiny thread below with some details to pique your interest.

We're a broad life sciences institute and are looking for someone who is interested in collaborating across a range of different research areas and experimental model systems - from plants to microbes and mammalian cells and tissues (the latter including my own research program)

We're casting a wide net & welcome applications from folks with research interests connected to any of our current research themes.

Was a little disappointed that more neuroscientists didn't join the discussions.

Here's the video of a virtual talk I gave yesterday on dynamical systems theory in neuroscience. I suggest that the language of attractor basins can be used to discuss high level behavioral phenomena, including some symptoms of psychiatric disorders.

'Cognitive and behavioral attractors: dynamical systems theory as a lens for systems neuroscience'

The fantastic Dan Bush who is starting his new lab here at #ucl #neuroscience is recruiting! Come join our great dept!: There are two #postdoc positions available - using #MEG, intracranial EEG and #human single cell recordings to test theoretical models of #human long-term #memory function - further details here: https://tinyurl.com/38mcacj9)

I will soon advertise a PhD student/postdoc position to work with us on characterizing cognitive change in early Alzheimer’s disease using smartphone-based high-frequency testing. Please get in touch if interested! #DigitalBiomarkers #EMA #AmbulatoryAssessment

The lab is growing and we are hiring! #postdoc #jobs #research #memory #neuralcircuits #fear #calciumimaging #electrophysiology #behavior https://twitter.com/StephenMaren/status/1601386142439329793?s=20&t=--bI-bUmrHnIQjEWLpQwxg

More than happy to land here! I am a neuroscientist interested in the dog-human bond. 😃 💞 🐶 Using fMRI, I help uncover how dog brains perceive their social world.


I am not alone in this endeavor. Besides brilliant human colleagues worldwide, I have two amazing furry colleagues, Odín and Kun-kun.
