The cruelty of this administration is only surpassed by their utter fucking incompetence.

Trans youth deserve safe schools, loving homes, and the medical care they need.

Working on this now. Already finding broken links and missing data. This work could not be more urgent.

Would have loved to see his reaction. Although I’m also certain it would’ve gone over his head

This is obscene.

People will do this with RFK Jr. too: "You may disagree with his conclusions, but at least he's standing up for what he believes in!"

OK but the thing he believes in is getting children killed so let's just go ahead and stay focused on the disagreement.

Okay domingo lingo is insanely catchy though…

Absolutely. The pathophysiology is so interesting, but the way she tells the story is equally riveting!

I’ll also add this one. The story of how such a striking clinical presentation could have a distinct molecular cause - and the role that both the clinical and laboratory sides played in elucidating it - was a huge inspo for me in going MD/PhD

Didn’t see you posted this already! This is mine as well!

This is why I’ve always loved the quote β€œDon't let schooling interfere with your education.”

MD/PhD student here. For me it was Oliver Sacks’ The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat. I’m sure I’m not the only one who was inspired by it!

Agreed that anchoring science in physical results is crucial, but I think it’s a stretch to say most neuroscience isn’t tied to the physical. Tons of work on disease models as stated elsewhere, but also basic biology of neurons, synapses, glia, anatomical work, etc etc.

As awful as this looks…it’s even more frightening when they’re on a ventilator and do this. The advice a few years ago for pregnant women to get vaccinated was a great move.

First day on BlueSky and I see debates on single cell vs population neural coding and whether grad school can be fun. Looks like the neuro community ported over pretty successfully πŸ˜„
