Excited and proud to report I just received the NoA for an R01 from NINDS investigating cortical targets for treating #dystonia following #preterm birth. Grateful for co-Is Rafael Galindo @washuneurology.bsky.social, @jordacular.bsky.social, and Ream Al-Hasani. Grateful also to my great lab... 1/x

An absolute must read from @drbhooma.bsky.social @dianacejasmd.bsky.social www.neurology.org/doi/10.1212/...

Cognitive care should not be disrupted by arbitrary age cut offs. This is a session where we will discuss the importance of continuum of cognitive care at the AAN annual meeting. @aanmember.bsky.social

Please see attached the Event Schedule for Adults with IDD Section at #AANAM. Our section stands for the continuum of #cognitive care across the lifespan. @aanmember.bsky.social

SO THRILLED to see the incredibly accomplished award winners at @childneurosoc.bsky.social this year What a way to start the week! 🎉❤️🎉 Jacki Martindale's work made a huge difference in calling attention to discrepancies in these awards: www.neurology.org/doi/10.1212/... Such an important study!

Came here to post re: my canceled NIH study section + horrific US govt attacks on science, but also on societal response to this angler fish & how that mirrors often erroneous approaches to animal disease models. Human motivations ≠ animal motivations. If science survives, let's be better. #ethology

Had a great time giving Neurology Grand Rounds at my residency alma mater @bostonchildrens.bsky.social - I especially enjoyed talking to the residents who told me great GR lectures have practical relevance and talk about a career journey. Great advice ❤️

I did a lot of talking about writing, medicine, disability, and ableism in (a LOT) of lectures and two podcasts. I got to chat with neurology's own renaissance woman, @oligoclonalband.bsky.social for the Journal of Child Neurology Podcast sageneuroscience.libsyn.com/disability-a...

Meet 10 neuroscientists bringing model diversity back with the funky animals they study. By @callimcflurry.bsky.social, @avaskham.bsky.social, @claudia-lopez.bsky.social, @shaena.bsky.social #neuroskyence www.thetransmitter.org/animal-model...

What a year! #DLC3🔥 is up tested by many of you (👀 watch out for a paper in 2025), we hit 750K downloads, and have over 120 contributors to the code! @deeplabcut.bsky.social ❄️⛷just dropped: new human pose models & high perf. models!

Neurology Podcast: Dr. @drbhooma.bsky.social discusses the modern definition of #CerebralPalsy, the philosophical implications of diagnostic labels, and the need for clarity in practice. 🎙️Listen now: bit.ly/4gi2gNK Article: bit.ly/3yW59DS #NeuroSky #MedSky #PedSky @childneurosoc.bsky.social

To understand the human brain, we often study mice. But how does a mouse brain compare to a primate brain? In a recent study, we developed a quantitative method to compare the brains of different animal species, and discovered a potentially unique aspect of the primate brain.

Setting a good rhythm for my Sunday with this new eLife review from Ichim…Muresan on gamma oscillations - from neural processing to brain maintenance. Brain rhythms for breakfast. 1/10 #neuroscience 🧪🧠

👀😬

@washuneurology.bsky.social , Neurosurgery, Orthopedics, PMR, PT, OT, and nursing discussing a new era of collaborative #cerebralpalsy care @washu.bsky.social SLCH

Fascinating and sobering examples of how our biases are laid bare when screening written work for contributions from generative AI

I have been on Promotion and Tenure Committees for several years now. Here are some things I wish candidates knew. A thread! Complete with ridiculous gifs 😀 PTR committee members, please add to this thread! 1/x

med.stanford.edu/news/all-new... www.nature.com/articles/s41... Amazing progress on childhood brain cancer, bringing hope where there was none. That first author is pretty impressive...

My %FTE this AM - 5% paper revision, 95% reformatting our lab logo to fit the 🦋 banner. 0% success at either #neurosky #neuroskyence

Academia runs on contacting other academics out of the blue and saying HEY do you wanna do this COOL THING for essentially NO REWARD and equally certainly NO RECOGNITION from your employer and those people going OH MAN that sounds AWESOME sign me up for the COOL NO REWARD NO RECOGNITION EXPERIENCE.

Bringing my musings about #dystonia in #cerebralpalsy plus the hard work of this lovely lab to 🦋
