My lab is seeking motivated postdoc fellows to join us for preclinical fMRI projects! Please spread the word! #neuroimaging #fMRI Candidates with small animal MRI experience are encouraged to apply! ismrm.org/jobs/j08422.pdf

Developmental Common Coordinate Framework (DevCCF) for developing mouse brain atlases is out. nature.com/articles/s41467-0… It features MRI and light-sheet co-registered templates and 3D anatomical labels based on developmental ontology from embryonic to adult ages

Postdoctoral researcher in preclinical neuroimaging at UTSW @NaNeuroimage Motivated candidates with experience in MRI or other brain imaging modalities with small animals are encouraged to apply! jobrxiv.org/job/university-o… #biomedical_engineering #brain... jobrxiv.org/job/university-o…

My last project in the Jasanoff lab! Thanks to all wonderful colleagues, especially @RobertOhlendorf. #HemodynamicsRock #BLUsH #MolecularMRI

To everyone who has been shocked and depressed by the staggering 40% cut to the BRAIN Initiative: we have a voice! Outside Witness Testimony (aka written testimony) for the FY 2025 appropriations cycle is ongoing. Deadline for the House side is Friday May 3 and the Senate side is Friday May 24. Let's all write in with our thoughts about what this cut means for scientific progress and for medical advances to help patients suffering the most devastating neurological and psychiatric illnesses. Please see instruction links and more information here: House Outside Witness Testimony: appropriations.house.gov/sit… Senate Outside Witness Testimony: appropriations.senate.gov/im… Please RT @SfNtweets @MichaelJFoxOrg @alzassociation @alsassociation

This is unbelievable. How can a country that cares about the future begrudge $300 million to unlock the secrets of the mind and cure the most devastating ailments of the soul? This is 0.0035% of the federal budget. If you make 100k a year, this works out to $3.50. A coffee to invest on a project that almost certainly will change the future of medicine and humanity. Am writing to Barbara Lee, Alex Padilla, and Laphonza Butler now. I don't think I have ever personally felt how nonsensical the federal budget is.

Reviewer comment: “It is recommended that the PI include in the proposal a collaborator who is an expert in bone marrow imaging.” What the actual f*ck? I am the expert in bone marrow imaging! 🤯🤯🤯 How do you respond to a comment like this?

I wrote down my rules on how to Science. I hope you find it useful!

The @NIH will no longer score researchers’ expertise and institutions during grant evaluations, from 2025. Last week, the agency announced that it's moving forward with a plan to overhaul its grant-review system for the first time in years. The agency says the changes will reduce reputational bias, which has led to funding disparities among grant recipients. Here's how we covered the plan in its draft stage last year – nature.com/articles/d41586-0…

Applying to PhD programs in the biomedical sciences? Check out the UT Southwestern Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences (GSBS). @UTSWGradSchool offers PhD degrees in basic & clinical sciences @UTSWNews #SpotlightUTSW PhD Programs 👇🏽

Did I mention that we have a new @NaturePortfolio journal out dedicated exclusively to imaging? Why not check out our aims and scope for #npjImaging and consider sending us your next manuscript: nature.com/npjimaging/aims

The second week of our newly launched course " Current Topics in Neuroimaging"! We're thrilled to have the enthusiastic participation of our instructors and students! Catch us every Mon&, 1:30-3pm at NE2M.116! @JiaenLiu_BMIR @aniladmello @UtswBmeProgram @UTSWNeurosci @UTSWBrain

May the Force (4th) be with you! ✨

All NeuroImage and NeuroImage:Reports editors have resigned over the high publication fee, and are starting a new non-profit journal imaging-neuroscience.org This comes with great regret, and a huge amount of thought and discussion- please read announcement to get more details.

fMRI enthusiasts - your @ISMRM workshop needs your abstracts. Please help spread the word and mark the date on your calendar. We look forward to seeing you in Padua! ismrm.org/workshops/2023/Bra…

#FluorescenceFriday Vasculature in Zebrafish, imaged with a diffractive OPM, inspired by @benjulab and Maximilian Hoffman. I like it, captures entire embryo up to 5DPF at ~1Hz, resolution good enough to see nuclei of endothelial cells in this example.

You never forget the first time you learn universities’ overhead rates on external grants.

YEEEEE, it’s happening! First hour special dropping Sept 6! “SWEET and JUICY” save the date, spread the word! 🙏🏼 ❤️

Experimental labs pay for equipment, supplies, animal housing, arrange repairs, updates, maintenance, write/update IACUC protocols, IRBs, safety protocols, DEA licenses, have inspections. Unless they do it too, none of your colleagues know how much time and money that all takes.
