Lightsheet microscopy produces terabytes of image data quickly—creating storage, transfer, and analysis bottlenecks. In my work, I’ve found smart compression strategies to be essential. Here are some of my observations: figshare.com/articles/pre... #microscopy @mbfbioscience.bsky.social

Checkout this webinar (8-6-25; 12pm EDT) on the SLICE light sheet microscope from @MBFBioscience! This high performance system is the size of a microwave and costs less than most confocals. I've loved working on this democratizing leap in #microscopy. #goodStuff #neuroscience

My #capybara friend is helping me register brains to Dr. Kim's devCCF (kimlab.io/brain-map/De...) atlas based on the CCF mouse brain atlas from the @alleninstitute.org. @mbfbioscience.bsky.social I'm, of course, using NeuroInfo for registration and cell counting :) #neuroScience

#BrainAwarenessWeek is almost here! 🧠✨ We're considering hosting some Bluesky chats to bring the #Neuroskyence community together. Would this be something you would join in on? What would you ask the community?

Um... didn't the #USA have a revolution or something just to not have a king? #SMH

Portuguese editorial cartoonist Zez Vaz reaches back to Tiananmen Square to call on American defiance.

Why does the world's richest man want to gut the CFPB? Because it would shield him from having to follow financial laws to keep customers' money safe — and give him access to confidential records about his competitors. Follow the money.

I know it's an awesome day for celebration (#superbowl), but please don't #DrinkAndDrive. I've lost a brother and a brother-in-law to drunk drivers. Ubers and taxis are so easy to get. www.nhtsa.gov/risky-drivin...

JD Vance, a Yale Law graduate, doesn't understand Marbury v. Madison, the most famous case in Constitutional law, which established judicial review of the other two branches of government.

A very important reminder for all of us.

Large-end beef rib roast was on sale this week. I seasoned it on Fri for cooking on Sun. It's 2 ribs and 3.5lbs. I used a simple rub of salt (1), pepper (1), granulated garlic (1/4; Kirkland), dehydrated onion (1/4), crushed rosemary (1/4), and dried thyme (1/4). I'll roast it to ~132degF. #beef

This is #wow. From the link, "Second, Willow performed a standard benchmark computation in under five minutes that would take one of today’s fastest supercomputers 10 septillion (that is, 1025) years — a number that vastly exceeds the age of the Universe." blog.google/technology/r...

The promised efficiency in research spending looks to be up for a strong start

I think you and I may have similar tastes in music :)

We had a food-psychic couple moment 2day. I've been silently craving cheesy rigatoni all week. My partner's making #sundaydinner and came home from the market with ingredients for baked rigatoni, ricotta, ground beef, and #sausage. This is the #b4pic #Cheese #rigatoni @sunnyanderson.bsky.social

This turned out great! The skin was very crispy and meat was tender and juicy (I took it to ~163degF). I'm always amazed how #chicken breast comes alive when you use plenty of seasonings (I usually prefer drums and thigs).

Here's a seasoned chicken breast that I just put into our convection toaster oven at 400degF. We're having it with air fried whole sweet potatoes and salad. #saturdayeats #easyEats @sunnyanderson.bsky.social @alexguarnaschelli.bsky.social
