5 years ago, on the heels of 28andMe, our team designed a new precision imaging experiment: scanning an individual’s brain throughout her entire pregnancy. We are excited to share that these findings are out today in @NatureNeuro!

My PhD paper is out! We imaged gut neuron activity in living, eating flies (first time in history!), and found a Gut-Brain-Gut neural circuit loop that allows fruit flies to adjust their ingestion bouts based on the sucrose concentration of the food! (1/n
