To background subtract or not to background subtract is no longer the question. Let the machines learn! The advantages of this AI-guided strategy to voltammetry are in our paper published today in Analytical Chemistry--heavy lifting by @brovasaggi! lnkd.in/gVAFUE5w

Call Me Serotonin! Click the link below for a quick read on the history of my favorite molecule and importantly, what we know and don't know about serotonin in depression and anxiety. Congratulations Cameron! It's your week! @uclachem rdcu.be/dDMUq

The very best and most rewarding part of my professional life and the future of science--for you and me! Congratulations @Brovassaghi on your scholarly and pithy doctoral defense seminar ("salty banana"!) @Noellem8 --you're next! @uclachem

The lecture by American neuroscientist Anne Andrews was one of the highlights of this year's Brain Awareness Week at the #CzechAcademy. Prof. Andrews focuses on the neurochemical aspect of the brain. She and her team, studying the connection between serotonin and stress or depression, have developed a special sensor that measures individual neurotransmitters – see the study here: science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…

1/3 New serotonin (5-HT) GRAB sensors! We developed largely-improved green and all-new red genetically encoded fluorescent 5-HT sensors for dual-color imaging in vivo. Using these new 5-HT sensors, we are able to simultaneously monitor 5-HT and other neurochemicals.

Congratulations to Andrews' group member @Brovassaghi for receiving a coveted #UCLA Dissertation Year Fellowship. Selfishly, I'm already 😭 thinking about the fact that Cameron, who brilliantly spearheaded machine learning for electrochemistry, will be finishing in a year.

science.org/doi/10.1126/scie… Happy to see this 7-year collaboration culminate in a second paper in Science. Twenty-four new aptamers--mic drop!

Live from #ACNP2022 @NIMHDirector says raising salaries for NIH funded graduate students and postdocs means fewer folks will be funded as there will not be more money from #NIH

Since softer is better for the brain--@chuanzhenzhao fabricated our electronic serotonin senors on soft polyimide neuroprobes. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs… Check out the movie to see how he solved the problem of implantation. pubs.acs.org/doi/suppl/10.10…
