For obvious reasons, I've become fascinated with retrotransposons. So we (Alex Whiteley and I) wrote an article now out in @NeuroCellPress on how we think retrotransposons influence brain function and health! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Holy shit. What. A. Game.
My travel time to this conference…5 min walk from my lab 😅. Thanks for the invitation to present!

Our boy Leo has been sick the past week and stopped eating. A bad sign for a year old active pup. Turns out it’s some sort of aggressive cancer that’s spread 😢. Still waiting for more info but not looking good 💔
Just got an email from my SRO for the study section that was missed in October. Good news is that they are trying to reschedule ASAP (Dec/Jan). The bad news is that CSR is mandating that only the the top third (not half) of applications will get discussed for the next 2 rounds.
Excited to share new work from our lab at #SfN2025! @SfNtweets Posters span how the brain learns about time and space—from foraging and MEC dynamics, to RNN + hippocampus in curriculum learning, to MTL vs striatal activity across learning, and cognitive aging. Check them out!
This isn’t judicial “activism” The judge was assigned the case, she did not seek it. She interpreted the law as it is written in Utah. Utah requires 3 maps be presented to a commission and they must meet set rules including: -Being contiguous and compact. -Defined by…
This is a clear example of judicial activism. One unelected judge decided that her personal opinion outweighs Utah’s Constitution and the will of the people — and that’s unacceptable. Our Constitution should be interpreted, not rewritten from the bench. Utahns deserve judges who…
