🚨 New pre-print alert!🚨 Led by the brilliant, twitter-less post-doc James Hope. We built a 🤖 exoskeleton for 🐭🐁 so we can study their 🧠's as they go around navigating their world. An e.g., imaging 1000s of neurons in the cortex when mice walk an 8-maze. A 🧵

I am really excited to share that our new pre-print on “A machine vision guided robot for fully automated embryonic microinjection” is out. Thanks to @AndrewAlegria37, all collaborators and @bksuhasa @DarylGohl

We also trained a separate machine learning model and used the same robot to successfully inject zebrafish embryos and believe that this robotic system can be readily generalized to carry out automated microinjection in many other species. (9/10)

This work was led by two amazing grad students, @Amey__Joshi and @AndrewAlegria37, with critical contributions from @sciberius and Jorge Blanco Mendana (not on Twitter). Many thanks to all our co-authors! (10/10)

New paper! It’s absolutely wild what you see when studying bacteria using single-cell RNA-Seq! Unlike in eukaryotes, we found a genome-scale pattern of correlations among genes showing a strong dependency on global chromosomal locations. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… @AndrewPountain

What if you could image 🔬cells and then choose which ones to sequence 🧬? What if you could go back and image 🔬cells that you previously sequenced 🧬? Now you can 🔬 then 🧬 then 🔬 cells again with Light-Seq! nature.com/articles/s41592-0… Let’s dig in 🧵.

Our ADAR-based RNA sensors just came online! rdcu.be/cWX7o It allows you to express protein payloads in live cells in direct response to the presence of specific RNA transcripts. Also @EerikKaseniit, welcome to twitter.
