What if we could record single-cell RNA levels and videos in the same cells? Our new VISTA-FISH assay links gene expression with neuron firing, lysosome movement, and neuron morphology. VISTA-FISH also detects sgRNAs, enabling live-cell CRISPR screens 🧵 https://t.co/KGuhHdGtGC

I'm really excited to announce that I've been awarded a super prestigious grant from @BrainCanada speaking to my promise as an emerging leader in neuroscience. I'm so grateful to my amazing lab, collaborators, and family. Canada is a great place to be a scientist.

TIL there is an ongoing phase 3 clinical trial by neurona therapeutics to transplant human ESC-derived MGE-lineage interneurons into human brains to treat epilepsy. Amazing.

I'm giving a @PacBio webinar on Sept 10th on using ultra-deep long-read RNAseq and proteomics to characterize isoforms and alternative splicing in human neuron development. I'm really excited to talk about this project! https://t.co/PGHCUhUPvG

our field will soon have to reconcile what it means that cell types are highly transcriptomically conserved across species but that this doesn't necessarily imply functional conservation.

If you are a neuroscience graduate student in the USA and you have been affected by current changes in your research environment @WesternU may be able to help you. My lab would take students that successfully apply to this program. https://t.co/aGh8NadUu7

Time for 🇨🇦 to Lead.

The "AI" in the "AI Scientist" role above is broadly defined. We're especially looking for top researchers who are a good overall fit for our centre and hospital.

My neuroinformatics centre at is hiring for a PI-level Scientist position with a focus in AI. I'm on the search committee - please RT widely and reach out to me or search chair, @TristanGlatard, with questions!

The @NIH website, and associated sites, are officially offline. Crucial bioinformatics tools like BLAST, ffq, gget depend on these services. This is completely unacceptable. #methodsmatter

The Chamessian Lab @WashUPain is recruiting a #postdoctoral research associate to build on the foundational findings from our recent preprint showing that ion channels can be degraded by PROTACs. #TPD #PROTAC #drugdiscovery #pain #ionchannels. We're a fun group with an

🧬 Join our lab in Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦! Exciting postdoc opening at the intersection of machine learning and cancer genomics - developing next-gen models to predict genetic interactions with in-the-loop validation. Apply ➡️ https://t.co/9I3zhHK1wn or DM for more details!
