Check out this great preview by @DrDamienFair and @bttyeo! They put our new @NeuroCellPress paper in the context of decades of plasticity research stemming from Hubel and Wiesel's monocular deprivation studies. I can't imagine a more flattering comparison

Shout out to our lab member @MollieMarr for organizing to keep #MCAT students safe!
FYI to Portland premeds taking @AAMC_MCAT MCAT on Thursday in Fox Tower, @MollieMarr helped organize volunteers to escort students to and from exam. A motorcade also volunteered to help. You shouldn’t be taking exam until midnight downtown Portland. #PDXprotests Pls retweet
