confession: I often get excited by n=1 results.

Today we celebrate not only your success as a scientist, but also your triumph as a woman, feminist, fighter and the hundreds of versions of yourself that make up a whole. It has been a true privilege to learn with you & walk this path together! Congratulations Dr. @blancarodfer.bsky.social

DOES YOUR ANCESTRY affect your risk for Alzheimer's disease? Yes it does. Studies of ancestral diversity are crucial for understanding risk for brain diseases; expression of subtypes of psychiatric conditions can also depend on ancestry. Here's an overview: www.youtube.com/watch?v=glJp...

They're now messing with the Fulbright program [1]. I definitely wouldn't be here without the $7k I received from it in 1993. We need to help people from different backgrounds make connections and support each other.... [1] woub.org/2025/03/07/f...

Use your voice not just as a scientist but also as an individual by contacting your legislators and asking friends & family to do the same www.nature.com/articles/d41...

I honestly have no words🥹! From the bottom of my heart, many thanks to @alzassociation.bsky.social colleagues, and especially my team for this incredible recognition! Means more than I can express!! #AAICNeuro #MentorNeuroscienceAward

Great #LightningTalks today at #AAICNeuroNextIN 2025 and #AwardeePanel we’re quite inspirational 🥰🤓💪🏼

**NEW BMJ PAPER** "Uncertainty of risk estimates from clinical prediction models: rationale, challenges, and approaches" - most models provide just a risk estimate - we argue for presenting associated uncertainty too - includes pros, cons, PPIE & methods Hope helpful! www.bmj.com/content/388/...

📣 Thrilled to share the latest published study from the team led by #PatriciaGenius on a new way to analyze neuroimaging brain changes in Alzheimer's disease using Compositional Data Analysis (CoDA).

Daar gaan we, Netherlands!! 🌷🧡🧠 Happy to start this new research adventure!!!

Following with more GRBIO friends’ invited talks, led by Àlex Sánchez, @natvilortejedor.bsky.social, Xavier de la Cruz and Itziar Irigoyen shared their research, covering key points and current challenges. 🔥💪🏼 #Happy10GRBIO

Just been told these about 2025: 1️⃣ 2025 is a square, 45 x 45 = 2025 2️⃣ It is also a product of two squares, 9² x 5² = 2025 3️⃣ It is also the sum of three squares, 40²+ 20²+5²= 2025 4️⃣ It is the sum of the cubes, of all the single digits, from 1 to 9, 1³ + 2³ + 3³ + 4³ + 5³ + 6³ + 7³ + 8³ + 9³= 2025

Women are under-represented at senior levels in #academia globally, & across all #science 🧪 disciplines, as shown by these "scissor-shaped curves" ✂️ So how can we ever achieve #gender #equality? We discuss various strategies in this #Cell Commentary #WomeninSTEM www.cell.com/cell/fulltex... 🧵 1/

Hope I'm the first to post this all time classic on this platform

Mentoring is the most important thing most of us can do. Here is a 🧵about what I've learned as a PI running an academic research lab. I hope some of the advice is helpful to those who are just starting their labs and to folks hitting the academic job market in search of an independent position 🧪 1/n
