I'm super-excited to share our work, out today @nature! “A Measure of Smell Enables Creation of #Olfactory Metamers” In short: We designed #odors that did not share a single molecular component (a.k.a metamers), yet could not be discriminated by #human subjects. #tweetorial 1/n

Holy hell: every motor neuron in the proboscis of the fly has now been mapped, and we now have precise genetic targeting of each individually [Claire McKellar, Igor Siwanowicz, Barry Dickson, Julie Simpson] elifesciences.org/articles/5…

Fingers crossed!
All systems go for Crew Dragon’s test flight with @NASA astronauts @AstroBehnken and @Astro_Doug. Teams are keeping an eye on weather. Webcast will go live at ~11:00 a.m. EDT → spacex.com/launches
