Vice President @KamalaHarris is a proud mom of two remarkable stepchildren—and so am I. @CaptMarkKelly and I were trying to have a baby through IVF before I was shot and that dream was stolen from us. To suggest we are somehow lesser is disgraceful.
Me: First kiddo made it four days into daycare before he got sick. The baby will hopefully make it longer because he’s already caught several daycare colds from big brother.
Daycare: Oh, bless your heart
Made it two days, home with pink eye and accompanying cold 🫠

Hot off the press from the amazingly talented @IralaDolores and team 🤩
It is finally here! In this work we found that astrocytes control SST+ synapse formation and function by secreting NCAN C-terminal into the extracelular matrix in the developing cerebral cortex.

With the semester winding down and no traveling this holiday season (hurray third trimester…), I am excited to spend some extra quality time with my good friend 🔬 #nerdalert

Exciting updates for users of BrainRNAseq.org ! The site may look the same at first glance, but it has been completely rebuilt from the ground up with important features!

Nothing like being attacked by another blue account. Yes, I am a real doctor, went to med school, did a residency and practiced. I have opinions, lots of them, I also have facts, here's one; Crisis Pregnancy Centers are anti-choice shams masquerading as real medical centers/1
