Excited to report that @HockemeyerLab and I will be heading to @MPIAGE in Cologne for a sabbatical this fall! Very excited to work with my good friend @lab_schaefer and learn more about glia! I'd love to hear recommendations for conferences in Europe Aug-Dec 2023.

Hello people of my home state of Pennsylvania. I'm in California and I need your help. I walked into my office this morning and was confronted with this. It appears to be an inside job. Please send Jason Kelce, Bradley Cooper and whoever else you can find. Thank you. π¦
