Trump: He’s going to have a big role in health care
Q: Are you comfortable with his opposition to vaccines?
Trump: He’s going to have a big role in health care. We agree very strongly

"They were looking at two worms that looked a bit funny and decided to understand why."
Sounds like a good summary of my PhD with @meera_sundaram studying rod like lethal mutants in C.elegans. Today, all worm developmental geneticists stand a little taller.

When @willryu first shared his beautiful movies of a wiggling worm, I was blown away! But how can we both accurately and with interpretability capture the posture dynamics of an animal’s behavior?

On our recent expedition in the Pacific Ocean - I spent a lot of time contemplating philosophical underpinnings of our science.
Some of those thoughts were captured by a wonderful writer, Jennie - in this conversation “The worth of ‘worthless’ ideas”. stanmed.stanford.edu/beauty-…

I may have overreacted a bit filling out this data security form for a requisition for what amounts to some optical filters and mirrors...

"Can the vendor provide a demo of the product"
Me: "No, but you're welcome to come by and look. Some of the pieces of glass are slightly shiny. The mounting hardware will be painted black and less interesting to look at"

We (@AndrewGYork, @RunningPhoton, @microRussell and I) are still working on the manuscript describing our automatic parameter-free deconvolution approach, but we've made a Google Colab notebook where you can try it out without needing to install anything:
