Hippocampal vasculature is goooooorgeous!
I perfused this mouse with lectin, then cleared the brain via AdipoClear. Imaged on a @zeiss_micro Z.1 lightsheet at 5x (~0.5mm z projected).

It's cloudy with a chance of *checks notes* meteors? ☄️
A bright green meteor went over Tasmania this morning. And our #RVInvestigator was able to capture it on our live stream! 🚢
The ship was near south coast of Tasmania where it's currently doing work for @Parks_Australia.

Van, thank you for expressing the sorrow and relief that we all feel. My hope is that those who hoped for a different outcome will take a moment to empathize with the pain so many of us have felt over the past four years.

Intro stats should be called "How to Predict the Future, Part 1."
Why do we take these god-like tools that we have developed and give them terrible names like "Statistics" and then treat them like chores?

This month, the US stock market lost two trillion dollars in market-cap due to a problem that science R&D could have preemptively solved.
That figure exceeds the sum of all funds ever received over all years since 1950 by the National Science Foundation, the NIH, and the CDC.

Today reminds us that progress might be slow. It might take decades. But no matter what things might look like today, it’s always possible. Happy Pride month, everybody.
