I am recruiting a postdoctoral researcher and a PhD student, funded by a new ERC grant. The grant focuses on the role of the hippocampus in visual perception, using 7T fMRI (hippocampal subfields, cortical layers) and MEG+iEEG. The intended start dates for both positions are in early 2027. 🧠🟦 1/3
When I head to Washington, I will be the first woman in Congress with a science PhD. That matters. At a time when science is under attack, Congress needs more leaders who understand the value of evidence-based decision-making.
@angielaird.bsky.social is my #OHBM heroine!!! Thank you Angie for making this a welcoming, fun, and ****smart**** community! Great talk!
Amazing talk at #OHBM2026! Wow 🤯
We think of white matter as the highways of the brain. But when we followed development along those highways, we were surprised. The journey is more complex than we thought. My final PhD paper, “Two Axes of White Matter Development”, is now out in @natcomms.nature.com! 🛣️🧠✨ 🔗 bit.ly/wm2axes

1/ Our new paper is out in Imaging Neuroscience! 🎉 We validated in-vivo MRI–based axon radius mapping by comparison to large-scale human brain histology (> 46 M axons & 35 CC-ROIs). Title: “MRI-scale histology validates spatial sensitivity of in-vivo MRI-based axon radius estimation”

“Could?” Let me be clear. A $100,000 H1B will kill our ability to do world class science in the US.
“It actually doesn’t take much to be considered a difficult woman. That’s why there are so many of us.” ― Jane Goodall 💙 RIP to a real one. My childhood hero
Jane Goodall, ethologist and conservationist, has died. She was 91

Announcing such a major change to NSF GRFP this late in the cycle is incredibly cruel. 2nd yr students (mine included) have been working so hard on their proposals despite ongoing uncertainty. They are driven and passionate about being outstanding scientists and helping those coming up behind them.
I’ll be at #SRP2025 if you’d like to chat about this position! Anyone graduating soon and interested in a stable, long term high level position (but doesn’t want to be a PI) would be purrrrfect for this position!!!!

this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like
Is it just me or did everyone go to LinkedIn for academic article alerts post-Twitter? When I go there I’m so excited by the science.
94% of teachers have had to dip into their own pockets to buy school supplies. An estimated 1 in 6 have second jobs during the school year to make ends meet. The average Wall Street employee got a record $244,700 bonus last year. Something has gone terribly wrong.

Yesterday I had the honor of attending a patient’s high school graduation ceremony. As providers, so much of our time and attention is devoted to struggle, being present for a moment of triumph is such a joy. I’m so grateful to the family for thinking of me on this occasion. #psychscisky #pedsky
