neuroscience and biology technologies

in neuroscience on 30 November 2014

Summary

Earlier this year I created a webpage to list various labs, websites, and other resources related to neuroscience and biotechnology. Decided to expand on this and create a living document of various technologies currently used in neuroscience.

There has been, and continues to be, an explosion in technologies with neuroscience applications. Keeping track of them all can be daunting at times, especially for someone entering the field. I've decided to begin assembling a list of neurotechnologies into a living document. Very early draft form is below on Google Doc, still deciding on the best way format and share such a resource.

long-term optical imaging of the spinal cord in awake, behaving animals
25 may 2023 | neuroscience
How does the spinal cord process sensory stimuli in awake animals? A brief overview of results from our recent preprint describing [...]a spinal implant chamber, fibrosis-inhibiting materials, computational methods, and end-to-end pipeline for large-scale bilateral recording from multiple segments of the spinal cord. This allowed us to conduct long-term (months to over a year) imaging of individual axons, microglia dynamics, and Ca2+ imaging of neurons—all in awake, behaving animals.

Several of the approaches described, such as fibrosis inhibition, are applicable to preparations and experiments beyond the spinal cord.

brain initiative notes
27 may 2013 | neuroscience
This is a continually updated collection of news, ideas/findings, and other tidbits related to the [...]n/' target='_blank'>BRAIN initiative, promising biotechnologies, and neuroscience/biology in general. This is a really exciting time in neuroscience and I hope to capture a bit of that here.

on the subject of something: reviving an old website
12 may 2015 | website
On the Subject of Something was my original blog during high-school and early college. My Opera (the site it was hosted on) closed down and[...] I was unaware of this fact during the grace period during which they allowed users to export the content from their website. However, I am extremely grateful to the Internet Archive: Wayback Machine, which allowed me to recover many of the webpages. I've included links to all the relevant posts that I could recover. Enjoy!

from the archives: declaration of independence, internet edition
11 july 2013 | america
A revised Declaration of Independence I did awhile ago (i.e. high school) for a writing class. It is slightly a mockery of the style of wri[...]ting sometimes used back then, e.g. finding unnecessarily complicated ways of saying a simple concept; long, ponderous sentences; and an abuse of the Capital.
