Check out some of my thesis work from the Birdsong Lab at UMich 🐭 If you’re at sfn I’d love to chat about this work, delta opioid receptors and what’s coming next! @willbirdsong00 @SfNtweets

Woo Hoo go Liz and the Birdsong lab! Check out this paper y’all
We’re happy to share Liz Jaeckel, @arias_hervert and our team’s work that found opposite changes in thalamic inputs to the cortex and the striatum following morphine exposure. Congratulations Liz! You can read the work here…
So where in my CV do I put that I am now highly skilled at getting the last of the shampoo/conditioner/condiment out of a container by using the same method that I flick my internal into my pipette?
I love the ephys “first patch” experiences, and I have to share a funny one from yesterday. A rotation student finally got their pipette down onto a cell, and as they were about to make a seal they turned to me and said, “wait can I go to the bathroom real quick?!”and broke in🤣

If anyone has ever made fun of your nose the joke is on them now bbs. There’s no way that standard Covid swab is getting up to our brain like those button-nosers
Me: *so excited I finally broke into a cell*
The cell: “I can’t wait to die honestly I can’t wait to die” youtu.be/-aafJ0LFhjc
*sap warning* on Monday I found out that I passed my prelim exams and moved onto candidacy for my PhD. And today I finally cried, not from the struggle of grad school and this success, but from the support of those in my life. These pics may seem simple, my dad has been telling
everyone he knows this whole week about my results, and I have gotten so many random calls and texts wishing me congrats. He struggles to understand my projects, what I do in lab, etc but everyday he roots me on. It’s sappy, but I wish that everyone had this support

So there’s a difference between a preface and a foreword? And you can put 4 BEFORE the intro? My head hurts even before starting this book
