Fall is beautiful here (pic from last week)
There’s something about an early morning walk across campus that is a nice way to start the day - the light was beautiful.
Trying to notice the good things.

Congratulations to the newly minted Dr. Hannah Doyle!!! Her defense was awesome and yes, that is a championship belt that the lab made for her (she’s also a kick a** boxer) 💪🥊🧠👩🏻🔬🧪🎉🎊🥳 #neuroscience #WomenInSTEM

The sound of cells in the brain just doesn’t get old! It’s how I fell in love with #neuroscience 🧠🧪👩🏻🔬
Celebrating small victories - first #neuropixels recordings in the lab. Congrats to the team that made it happen!

Spent an awesome morning telling high school students (and teachers) about the brain. Was so fun and good for the soul. (They gave me some cute swag too)
Highly recommend as a way of keeping perspective. This is what matters. 🧠🧪👩🏻🔬 #neuroscience #ScienceAdvocate

Amazing couple of days celebrating Joe LeDoux. I feel very lucky to have been in his lab as an undergrad. It’s there I learned e-phys and was hooked from then on. #neuroscience #WomenInSTEM 🧠🧪👩🏻🔬

Today I’m #thankful for my family. They kept me safe (see yesterday’s) and will feed me today.
Seriously couldn’t do it without them ❤️
I share pics of our turkey going into the oven this morning - one of my daughter’s creations 😊🦃
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Ok, I think the universe (or the editors ;) is poking fun at me for what I said yesterday.
One paper rejected and one accepted since then! I'll take that batting average. So today's #thanks go to the Editors out there. It's a tough job! 🧠 🧪 👩🔬 #neuroscience

It's thanksgiving week - what are you thankful for?
I'll start: reviewers. Yes, yes, not always perfect but always service. We have a fair number of papers in the pipeline and no matter how you look at it it's fueled by the service of us and our colleagues. Thank you! #thanks 🧠 🧪 👩🔬

Dinner and duckpin bowling last night with the lab! So much fun! #neuroscience #WomenInSTEM 🧠 🧪 👩🔬
Yes, I said duckpin. For the curious: https://buff.ly/416kSM2
