Is CANGlia this far before CAN? It's before the room block discount applies at the conference hotel.

And make it off Paradise Island to check out the city, including the National Art Museum (not to be missed in 2028!) #ACNP2026

Always great to catch up with the #cannabinerds, even if I missed the picture 😞 #ACNP2026 @camielnik.bsky.social

And the view! #ANCP2026

It was great to present some new preliminary data from my new postdoc position in @descalzi.bsky.social's lab. We got a lot of great feedback!! #ACNP2026

I also really enjoyed all of the great science, especially the panel talks by my mentor this year @jessicalbolton.bsky.social and my mentor last year @caromenard666.bsky.social to name a few!! #ACNP2026

It did and I still missed it :(

The Ornelas lab investigates the neurobiology of traumatic stress & alcohol use disorders

Current research in the lab explores the role of corticolimbic circuitry & the endocannabinoid system in regulating maladaptive stress coping behaviors and alcohol drinking #ACNP2026 / @lcornelas.bsky.social

Thank you!! I'm super grateful for everyone's contributions!! I hope it'll be a use for the field

These work for immuno-EM IME, but for fluorescence might be different (or require a background reduction kit/protocol).

A short heated citrate buffer incubation can be used for antigen retrieval but keep it less than 15 minutes. Sodium borohydride (0.1%) incubation can also help with antigen retrieval. Happy to chat more!

If you can fix with acrolein over glut, that's going to be better for staining. An alternative is to do the staining prior following PFA fixation, fix with glut and then process for EM.

The Aves chicken one works well (Aves Lab, GFP‐1020) and I've also had success with an Invitrogen rabbit polyclonal (A11122).

If you were looking to avoid a specific host?

What species? Are you doing immuno-EM (and immuno gold or DAB) or IHC (DAB or fluorescence)? I know a few good GFP ones depending (I'll follow up with access to my computer). There's some tricks to help restore antigenicity with glut fixed tissues but if you can fix with acrolein it's better.

Once you start thinking of AI as a war on humanity, on human thought, on human inquiry, on human labor, on nuance and critical thinking, it slots in pretty seamlessly with the right wing ideological project, oligarchical political projects, big tech's political projects, etc

Remember how we always talk about there being many, many ways to resist? This may seem like a small one, but it’s actually HUGE.

This administration is absolutely hell bent on the eugenics of the disabled and chronically ill.

Wearing a health mask is an ENORMOUS act of resistance.
