I was told "Our tech is scheduled to arrive between 8AM-12PM", so I went ahead and scheduled my dentist appointment for 8AM.

Do better @DFWAirport. Landed with 95 minutes before connecting flight to Indianapolis. Customs and security took 85 minutes. TSA precheck closed, two security lanes open. Missed connection. Pathetic.

Amazing journey and accomplishment for now Dr. @YinYuexi. It's been a privilege being your mentor. Great students always have to leave. Good luck at @McGeheeLab @UChicago. Big shoes to fill for @reganhines18 and @osullivanduffy.

As a naive graduate student 20 years ago learning ephys and ion channel biophysics, I always checked to see what Bill was doing. Glad I had the privilege of meeting him. RIP.

Electrophysiologist superstitions? My senior graduate student @YinYuexi cannot pull electrodes before prepping acute brain slices. Me: remember to use manners when asking a cell to seal.... Anyone else?
