Kim Butts Pauly presents an overview of transcranial ultrasound stimulation (TUS). Great detail on how it actually works and a take away that this is a very promising technique but its complicated with a lot of dosing parameters and uncertainty remaining. Gave useful references #BrainStimConf

Anyone who is looking into post doc positions should check out CU PEAKS. The CU Postdoc Education and Knowledge Summit is a fantastic opportunity to meet faculty and present your work.

Also amazing to be back on the campus where I had my first research experience. The research here has really grown and the organizers have done a truly thorough job for this event. It’s an honor to be here.

Edward Alexander Bouchet was the first African American to earn a Ph.D. in the U.S. (Yale Physics, 1876). A trailblazer in science and education, he broke barriers with brilliance, resilience, and dignity—and remains a symbol of excellence and perseverance.

Co-organizing and moderating the annual Yale Bouchet Conference this weekend Full days coordinating speaker sessions, poster logistics and registration for this two day academic event, but so worth it. This year we have 240+ attendees, and the community is incredibly warm, driven, and passionate.

so my favorite dive bar in WI passed up showing tonight’s Bucks game so they could show live poll results. when the election was called for Crawford, the whole bar started chanting, “Fuck El*n”. the bartender pulled out the good stuff and handed out free shots to us all—an absolutely electric nite

Proud of Senator Cory Booker for his 5 hour and continuing filibuster and also watching Australian Survivor is making me think this should be a final immunity challenge

Wouldn't it be cool to be able to stimulate deep w/in the brain w/o the need for brain surgery, and without actually making a physical lesion in the brain (i.e. FUS or pallidotomy)? This paper provides 'proof of concept' that a transcranial ultrasound stimulation (TUS) approach may be achievable.
