thrilled to share this project over a decade in the making out now in @pnas.org! We show that precocious GABA boosting in neonates by early sevoflurane/propofol anesthetic exposure accelerates visual cortical maturation in human infants www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

We are hiring a Spanish-speaking research assistant for our Baby Steps Study - great opportunity for a pre-med or pre-grad postbac interested in working in the area of child neurodevelopment. Please share! jobs.bostonchildrens.org/job/22060807...

NIH just posted a Notice with the new Terms and Conditions... grants.nih.gov/grants/guide...

Please share: Opportunity for soon to be graduating grad students with an interest in neurodevelopment and mental health - our T32 postdoc program in neurodevelopmental disorders at Boston Children’s is accepting applications: rsztnc.org/wp-content/u...

Check out this paper! @ccclements.bsky.social dug deep into understanding EEG differences in Tuberous Sclerosis and teasing apart effects of seizures and seizure meds on EEG power spectra. Important implications for EEG use in clinical trials. What a fun collaboration!

New EEG paper! Amazing work by Winko An utilizing the incredible data collected across many years in Chuck Nelson’s lab. doi.org/10.1016/j.dc...

Beautiful gift from Megan Tsou - an amazing study coordinator in the lab. Love love love it!

Gave some advice to prospective medstudents. I think it was sound…but can folks on admissions or teaching medstudents can give me a thumbs up or down? TLDR: medschool evaluate (1) whether you will sink or swim, (2) are you committed to the profession, and (3) will you make a positive impact.

Putting this years holiday lab gift to use - had to keep one for myself! #braincoaster #perlerbeads

Holiday Lab Yankee Swap! Not pictured - me and my new brain notebook!

Happy Halloween from my zoo- lab!

Our paper - Developmental trajectories of EEG aperiodic and periodic components in children 2-to-44 months of age - now published in Nature Communications. Interesting dynamic changes in alpha and beta peaks that we think are related to steps in early thalamocortical development. rdcu.be/dNj0I
