Researchers gave female canaries testosterone, which causes them to sing. Two-photon in vivo imaging reveals that songs emerge due to changes in brain cell function rather than by increasing the size of a key brain region, as was once thought. In PNAS: https://ow.ly/pn1750XhFL5

I can’t think of a better reason to finally join Bluesky - my first first-authored paper is out! It being published in @science.org is surreal. This was a community effort in every sense, led by an incredible team with @rosvall-lab.bsky.social @mathcancer.bsky.social @juncowren.bsky.social

Jane taught us that every day we live, we make an impact. The choice is ours as to what kind of impact it will be. Her life proved that one person, rooted in compassion and sustained by hope, can change the world. Now it is up to us to carry that light forward—not as a farewell, but as a promise.

Hello Bluesky: Long time listener, first time poster! Excited to share the first publication of my Ph.D. work studying the development of appendage shapes in @plosbiology.org! The zebrafish caudal fin is quite distinctive, and we examine the timing and mechanisms of how its shape might come to be!

Interesting article about part-time working in academia. I'd add 1. Flexi-working can mean you don't have to work '3 or 4 days a week' but instead can accrue time off to align with school holidays. 2. Role sharing can help you do big admin jobs needed for promotion elifesciences.org/articles/106...

Nemo needs gap junctions, too. New preprint with Marleen Klann, Vincent Laudet, et al. showing anemonefish Snowflake mutant due to E42K substitution in Connexin Gja5b.

The future of @sbn-bsky.bsky.social new faculty @thefortylab.bsky.social @prolactingrl.bsky.social @thefishiedoc.bsky.social

Absolutely thrilled to share the first half of my PhD work! Super proud to see it finally out! www.nature.com/articles/s41... Thread below for a quick (10 point) recap of what we found! 🧵🧪🧠

Now published!!!! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

It is out! Read how you achieve 1.7 mm deep 3-photon imaging in prefrontal cortex with dendritic spine resolution over a week. www.nature.com/articles/s42...

This! This the type of work that makes me so optimistic that the next 3 decades of brain research will be more impactful that the last for understanding/treating mental conditions. We finally have the right measurement tools & analyses (eg for emotion). www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Why do some deer mice stick around to raise their young while others don’t? New research shows that differences in brain cell types and gene expression may shape their wildly different parenting instincts.
