Today is my birthday and also 14 yrs since brain surgery, 33 rounds of radiation plus 4 cycles of high-dose alkylating chemotherapy. It hasn't been easy, but I don't regret the person I've become as a result of what I went through. So deeply grateful. Sending love & light to all!

Oncology check-up this week (every 9 months)! A small price to pay given my 1-year survival prognosis in 2009, but even after 40+ MRIs since then, it somehow doesn't get much easier. Grateful to be in remission (yet still haven't figured out how to properly tie a hospital gown.)

Researchers funded by the BRAIN Initiative have identified two types of cells in our brains that are involved in organizing discrete memories based on when they occurred. The study was led by @UeliRutishauser ( @CedarsSinai ) #studyBRAIN

With everything going on in the world, I wanted to send love and gratitude to all my family, friends, and colleagues who have been such beacons of support, joy, sources of (delightful) silliness, and for making the day-to-day so full of joy and light. Have a great long weekend!

Check out our team's latest work, joint with collaborators @MayoClinic , where we built a state-of-the-art AI that automates one of the most labor-intensive steps in the radiotherapy planning process: contouring of organs at risk of damage during treatment.
