Embarrassing moment: I was setting up auto reply but made a mistake so my mail server is sending to everyone who has emailed me in the past N years that I will be on vacation July 22-31.. apologies if you happen to receive one.

Fun group activity at top golf— having youngest athlete enjoying the game and someone really good at it!

At weekly meeting today my student showed me his excitement of the week.

Hanlin Zhu @HDataalchemist at presenting his awesome data at 20th Annual GCC Theoretical and Computational Neuroscience Conference. Largest poster I’v seen for a while.

Amazing microscope and fantastic talk! @futianming ! Thanks for visiting us @RiceNeuro from @EPrinceton

Start the day as an engineer

I love this annual event and participate every year. My student Haad Rathore won the 1st of Rice graduate students two years in a row (with $1000 cash award! Thanks to @RiceECE ) and @xiechong’s student @HDataalchemist won the 3rd place across all institutions! Bravo @RiceNeuro

Happy thanksgiving! @xiechong @RiceNeuro

Rice Neuroengineering family at sfN. @ckemere @xiechong @RiceNeuro

I have to miss sfN, but my student Haad Rathore will present our preliminary study of longitudinal neuroplasticity after a microinfarct damages a single barrel. Imaging and ephys put together for a chronic study, as we always do. Tuesday 9 am, Poster 466.19

Great visit to UCLA Brain Institute. Thank you Anne Andrews for inviting me! People says I brought the rain they have been missing for months. I guess I also brought Kamala Harris and elevated security.

Honored attending and speaking at EU-US frontier of Engineering symposium. Lake bled is so lovely!

Great visit to U Washington! Awesome discussions with faculty and students, and gorgeous campus! Thank you @neuroamyo for the invite!

After graving for a group retreat for 2 yrs, we finally did it with @xiechong group! very fun weekend on a beach house at Galveston. cocktail hour, buffet breakfast, beach volleyball, BBQ, soccer, and enjoyable discussions! hope COVID (& funding) will permit us doing this again!

Happy ending: Haad got the first place price of Rice ECE at this joint events between Baylor and UT health!

Happy thanksgiving! The first thanksgiving dinner with the group (only those who are in town and could come) and the first home-gathering in two years. Very thankful and look forward to more!

no new paper; no new grant; but I am excited to bring online a new capability of the lab-- behavioral detection of ICMS in mice. and YES, NETs can stimulate robustly to elicit behavioral detection. Applaud to my student Robin Kim's hard work to make it happen!

virtual conference is hard, but our speakers are fantastic! Thanks @SantacruzLab @MCapogrosso Guosong Hong, Jennifer Li for great talks and discussions! @SantacruzLab great effort making this minisymposium a success!
