New publication in @PNASNews from Dr. @tim_monko (PhD 2021) and Professor Yasushi Nakagawa!
"Thalamocortical axons regulate neurogenesis and laminar fates in the early sensory cortex"

Excited to announce that our paper “Reevaluating tear gas toxicity and safety” is now published at Inhalation Toxicology. This scientific review is the culmination of our year long journey to raise awareness about tear gas policy, usage and research.

So proud to have our work continuing to be discussed!
Check out the most recent article written by the U of Minn news that beautifully summarizes the work my cohort and I did on the history, regulation and use of tear gas

Excellent and well researched article from @shijundu from the @StarTribune. Thank you for interviewing me as part of your work. In turn, your research helps us! While it's good that health agencies are following up, the changes to reproductive health are horrible and alarming.
Tear gas, banned in war by international law, has been linked to reproductive problems. But how do you find out what kind of chemical munitions police are firing when you have a "unified command" coalition of agencies each beholden to different policies? strib.mn/3e8oapj
Check out this interview with amazing co-authors @toddesca and Jenn Brown!
What they didn’t show was me staring in rapture at our corresponding author Jenn Brown as she discussed our research with KARE 11. Check us out on YouTube if you didn’t have time to read our papers. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

I'm so proud of my group! Please read this article, it's meant for EVERYONE! No matter your opinions on tear gas you will learn something new, and we hope that as the public learns of tear gases' past and present, hopefully we can use it to change the future.
In timely news our op-ed is out!! Biggest of shout outs to my incredible co-authors @RoTysh @CarryLions @tim_monko and the twiterless Jenn Brown who has been leading the charge on these works for over a year

As a UMN grad student I am beyond distressed that the UMPD took part in this “riot control” at the Brooklyn Center. @UMNews we literally JUST published a peer reviewed article on how dangerous tear gas is and how it is used disproportionately against communities of color.

Pour yourself some coffee and take five minutes today to learn about the history of tear gas and our recommended policy reforms (spoiler: we should stop using it)
Presented by the twitterless Jennifer Brown, paper under rev. and authored by myself @RoTysh @tim_monko @CarryLions

Take a breather from your day while watching this #SciPolSymposium #FlashTalk given by Jenn Brown! Learn about the cruel history of tear gas and how fear is used to leave social justice movements choking for air.
With contributions by @RoTysh @toddesca @CarryLions and myself.

A report co-authored by my classmate Jenn Brown, who is so awesome she's getting both her JD AND PhD. An interesting investigation into chimeric animal research (human cells/organs in animal hosts).

A new report from graduate student Jennifer Brown and Professors Francis Shen and Walter Low, two members of our graduate faculty
Survey of Americans finds that 82% of people are at least somewhat supportive of research into human-animal chimeric embryos, despite an #NIH moratorium on such studies. Read more in @stemcellreports hubs.ly/H0x57SH0 @UMNeurosci @KyotoU_News #chimera

Such an incredible panel. This statement really stuck with me too. #BlackInNeuroWeek
For those of you who missed the #NeuroRacism panel live (like me) it’s available on YouTube! And if you’re a neuroscientist this should be required viewing.
So many gems from this #NeuroRacism panel.
When discussing AI, Tony Black said, "You don't want AI algorithms to have biases and prejudices, we already have humans for that."
Excited to present my #FENS2020poster to a global virtual audience.
How is the development of the brain's cortex changed by external input?

Hello! I want to be more involved in #ScienceTwitter, so here's a lil' intro about me. I am a PhD candidate studying developmental neuroscience at U Minnesota - investigating neurogenesis, neuro-immune interactions and extrinsic regulation of brain dev. (1/3)
Always repping basic science, cell biology and bio-image analysis. Broad color deficiencies so👀my work for color friendly figures (I hope). Disabled, first-gen college student passionate about bringing opportunity to all walks of life. Trying to love my neighbour first (2/3)
