In a new preprint from @brianhie.bsky.social's lab, the team reports the first generative design of viable bacteriophage genomes. Leveraging Evo 1 & Evo 2, they generated whole genome sequences, resulting in 16 viable phages with distinct genomic architectures.

Had such a great time in Napa Valley at the @onemindorg.bsky.social Summit on the Future of Mental Health Research 🧠 As a past One Mind Rising Star Awardee, it was so inspiring to connect with other awardees and see the incredible research being done by this year’s winners ⭐️

One of the coolest things about working at @stellatecomms.bsky.social is getting to work with an incredible team of designers who really understand how to bring science communication to life ✨ 🎬

Career Advice | Equity-Minded Mentorship as Courageous Action As formal DEI efforts come under intense pressures, Kimberly A. Griffin and W. Brad Johnson offer advice for how faculty can still advance equity in higher ed through mentorship. https://bit.ly/4pq8H6x #EDUSky #AcademicSky #HigherEd

I was going to write a whole post about all this incredible work with all these amazing scientists and organizations, but I’ll just leave @stellatecomms.bsky.social design sizzle reel here. It speaks for itself. youtu.be/x2O7DkpIoCA?...

A pilot trial found that college students with major depressive disorder experienced reduced depression symptoms, improved well-being, and better cognitive performance after following a ketogenic diet for 10–12 weeks.

Keto diet linked to reduced depression symptoms in college students Credit: CC0 Public Domain A new study shows an association between at least 10 weeks of following a well-formulated ketogenic diet and a roughly 70% decrease in depression symptoms among a small group of college students. Beyond…

Ketogenic Diet Explored for Depression in College Students In a groundbreaking pilot study that delves into the intersection of nutrition and mental health, researchers have put the ketogenic diet—a high-fat, low-carbohydrate nutritional regimen—under the microscope as a potential adjunct therapy…

A pilot study of 24 college students on a ketogenic diet found depression scores fell by nearly 70% over a 10-12-week period, with participants losing an average of five kilograms. https://getnews.me/ketogenic-diet-cuts-depression-symptoms-by-70-in-college-study/ #ketogenic #depression #college

“The fact that scientists, and not school administrators, are leading the push is meaningful, Green Nylen says. ‘It feels really important for us that there was something we could do as researchers to fight back and to make a difference for ourselves.’” 🧪

Good morning everyone! So, I wrote a book (!!) and it’s coming out November 4th in physical and audiobook form. It’s called *How to Change a Memory* www.amazon.com/How-Change-M...

Thanks for having me at @camp_course and the @iitmadras Brain Center during my visit to India this summer!🥭 It was lovely to be back home, and a pleasure to work with the young scientists there who are finding their path in computational neuroscience 🧠

My new essay for @thetransmitter.bsky.social. Why is understanding emotion so challenging? The debates around what counts as an "emotion" shed insight. These disputes are multidimensional, principled and fascinating. Here, I unpack them. www.thetransmitter.org/the-big-pict...

Such a pleasure to speak with @beingpatient.bsky.social about Alzheimer’s Disease risk in women 🧠 Hint: it may in large part hinge on vascular health! beingpatient.com/why-women-fa...

What I’m reading 👉📚 A powerful & personal piece by @jacobrobinson.bsky.social (CEO @motifneuro.bsky.social) on how brain-computer interfaces could transform mental health. Honest, bold & inspiring. I encourage folks to read & subscribe. brainjacob.substack.com #BCIs #BrainComputerInterface

Cover art concept for @denisejcai.bsky.social publication showing that restful awake states (not just sleep) play a role in weaving new memories into older ones. While ultimately not selected, the art by shows a mouse's fondest NYC memories being linked via "cognitive stargazing"✨

💡 The future direction of these sensors goes beyond optimization. We want to combine sensor use with technology such as fiber photometry in order to measure the full range of dynamics such as tonic and phasic neuromodulator release. ➡️ Learn more here: www.lintianlab.org/research#tools

The brain has complex dynamics that give rise to a range of states & behaviors. 🤔 How do we study this complex system? In my lab’s work, we design and optimize biosensors to measure brain activity at the molecular level.
