⚠️Common #neuroanatomy errors, as seen in the image below ⚠️
• Mistaking the marginal sulcus for the central sulcus
• A rather strange delineation that implies the entire cingulate gyrus is part of the frontal lobe??
• Pons ≠ only the basilar part
What else? 🔎

As of tomorrow, I am on the open market.
A well funded, internationally successful scientist is accepting offers from academia and industry in order to leave the state of Utah, taking my team of neuroscientists if they chose to leave with me.
I will not endanger my team.

What does it take to have a long & satisfying career in academia?
A fascinating panel from the School of Ed Psyh & Counselling @MonashEducation shared:
1. There are no short-cuts
2. There are ups & downs &
3. There are many paths.
What would you add? 👇🏼🤷🏻♀️🤔🧐@AcademicChatter

"But everyone's gonna get #covid eventually mate"
Even if that's true, it reinfects & each time the outcomes tend worse, so the aim is to be infected with covid as few times as possible.
Public health needs to be focussed on this task or your economy will tank, mate.
I have been waiting for data on the impact of repeated COVID-19 infections. I was hoping the results would be better but looks like being infected multiple times increases your risk of serious short and long-term outcomes.
Do what you can to reduce transmission folks

#Covid is kind of a Squid games thing.
Surviving one round does not mean you’re safe for the next one.
The more times you get it, the riskier it will be for the long term.
Now, where are those masks?

There are so many really incredible people in academia who get really harmed & burnt out from it. For all the kind and passionate people in academia who may be struggling, just know that many of us are grateful you're here, it's not YOU it's the system, and you're doing amazing.

It’s cerebellar anatomy time! Take note of the details of the homunculus. The term #cerebellum comes from Latin and translate as “little brain."

TIL, thanks to @amandameyerphd, that a non-eponymous term for a Nissl body (a collection of rER and polyribosomes in neuronal cell bodies) is tigroid substance. Because it makes the cell bodies look…
