Thrilled to share the 1st half of my PhD work w/ @maxwellheiman and @imclach, now on bioRxiv!
C. elegans glia may look nothing like their mammalian counterparts, but forward genetics showed us that even in these tiny worms, glial proteins can promote dendrite development.
Dendrites with specialized glial attachments develop by retrograde extension using SAX-7 and GRDN-1 biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor… #bioRxiv

Akap11 mutations greatly increase risk for #bipolar disorder and #schizophrenia. Not much was known about this gene when we started. Here’s what we learned!

Thanks to Morgan Sheng, @ajgrange, Yang Ge, Borislav Dejanovic & crew @broadinstitute

Amazing images by Irina Kolotuev. Outstanding thesis work by @PiN_Harvard graduate student Wendy Fung, following a discovery by @TaralynTan .
Thanks to Stephanie Dutchen for the great summary in HMS News @harvardmed!

Nothing makes me hate an airline more than being forced to check my carryon and seeing this when I board:
@AlaskaAir stop lying to your passengers about bin space.

Big congrats to my awesome Goodrich Lab mate @Katelyn_Comeau for her win!
And in case you've never thought about the blood supply to the sensory epithelium of the cochlea, Katelyn's work will likely give you some inspiration to pause

ALT "Vasculature in the Developing Cochlea" by Katelyn Comeau. Figure legend from website: "The image shows the apex of the snail-shaped cochlea, our hearing organ, with a dense plexus of vasculature, shown in green. The hair cells, which detect sound, are shown in magenta and are innervated by the primary auditory neurons, whose cell bodies and axons are also in magenta."
The results are in for our Beauty of the Brain Contest!

Gorgeous work out from @Juanonyme. Careful science, paired with thoughtful tool generation for making retinal RNAseq datasets more accessible. … And if you need a great mentor and agree that the retina is wildly cool, check out Juan’s new lab at UMD!
Our paper studying photoreceptor subtypes is out in @eLife: doi.org/10.7554/eLife.81579!
Great collaboration between the labs @KT_Kindt @Wei_Li_Vision labs and featuring stellar work of @vincentpkunze, @laura_patak and HaileyKim.

As a Podder, I am DEEPLY disappointed in @myomnipod for ending their partnership with Tidepool. I am convinced that FDA approval of Tidepool loop is a gamechanger for pregnancy w diabetes (& other situations). I really wanted Omnipod to be part of that step towards more equity.
Preview of Tuesday’s episode w/Tidepool. Exciting news about approval, but surprised to learn this:
