This was supposed to be a post about my lab's first funding of the year, a diversity supplement to fund our amazing research technician. The award never arrived. Now it's a post about the value of diversity and trying to persevere in these dark times. devinenilab.org/news/diversi...

Amidst all the terrible things, it's nice to have some good news - our paper on the architecture of fly taste circuits is published now! Led by Emory undergrad Sydney Walker and grad student Marco Peña Garcia. Paper here: www.nature.com/articles/s41... Summary here: devinenilab.org/news/connect...

If you are worried about the recent cessation of NIH communication, the canceling of programs and the politicization of science funding, now is the time to contact your congressional representatives! Link to find and contact your representative: www.house.gov/representati...

1/ In March 2023, I received a lumbar puncture. This was key to receiving my chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy #cidp diagnosis. This 🧵 is on my experience with identifying and treating #autoimmunedisease. I'll also be sharing some 🧵s I posted previously on the Other Place.

Excited to share our latest findings, now published @NatureNeuro www.nature.com/articles/s41... We found unmyelinated axons exhibit pearls-on-a-string morphology's due to their membrane mechanical properties. Threads will follow!
