So grateful for a January highlighted by ACNP and Winter Brain. It was a privilege to learn from incredible colleagues, exchange ideas, and connect with so many amazing people. Thank you to @kundakoviclab.bsky.social and Jinye Dai for organizing amazing panels and inviting me to share our work!

Thank you so much to the organizers of #GBSfN2025 for inviting me to present at this year's meeting on the JHU Homewood campus. It was a huge honor to be able to go back to the place my greater Baltimore neuroscience journey began as a PhD student and share some of the latest findings from my lab!

A little late posting but super excited for and proud of Ashley who successfully defended her thesis!

Upon learning that yesterday would be my last day as a program officer at the National Science Foundation, I shared this parting message with my colleagues. The next few months will be frenetic and stressful for them. Here are some things that you can do to help them with the mission ahead. (1)

We won the Biology department ornament contest bringing together neuroscience and holiday cheer!

We had a great time at #SfN23! Love being able to catch up with old friends, make new ones, and see a lot of great science!

If you're at #SfN23 tomorrow morning, stop by poster D30 to see a cool project that rockstar grad student Ashley Copenhaver has been working on!

Amazing lecture by Rick Huganir at #SfN23
