Step 1: get Trader Joe’s cookie butter. Step 2: melt and pour over ice cream. Step 3: resume arctic weather shelf studying in a slightly better mood. You’re welcome 🙃

1/2 Boards are over. On an extremely fun & one of my last rotations of med school catching a glimpse of what my career could look like - both seeing patients & doing research with them side by side. Getting my first weekend to finally relax in my new apartment 🥰 💆🏻‍♂️ #cueSimsmusic

Hey science twitter, what’s something outside of science you’re proud of / mastered / geek out 🤓 over? There’s this idea that being a long distance runner 🏃🏼‍♀️, musician 🎻, or something of the sort is predictive of #grit . Found this gem back home with the fam over the weekend🥋

Can’t thank the folks at @DukePsychiatry & @DukeNeuro for inviting me to speak at their Grand Rounds today! Special shout out to @KafuiDzirasa for being an amazing mentor and just a really cool guy. Plus, I’d come back for the food alone, let alone their science & medicine 🤤🧠🤓

🚨📝New pub in @BiologicalPsyc1 @SOBP featuring a new 2-hit stress model. After chronic social defeat stress (1st hit), we challenged mice in a closed-economy system across months, where escalating budget constraints (2nd hit) can have dire consequences🧵👇

1/ Do mice hallucinate? And how would we know? Answering this would help us to study the biological roots of psychotic illness. 🔥Our paper on hallucination-like perception in mice is out @ScienceMagazine 🔥With MBosc @OttTorben @fitzsturgill @KepecsLab
