This is going to come across as pretentious and unhelpful, but I really recommend reading books. Reading a book is the only thing I do where I feel like I'm nourishing my attention span, rather than sanding it down. The trick is to just read whatever you enjoy — not what you feel like you should.

I don't remember this part in the book, so clearly I need to re-read the book *and* watch the movie now

Film you've watched more than six times with a gif. I have many, but I'm gonna choose one that holds up

Yes, because they are superior in every way except the wire. www.soundguys.com/wired-headph...

I'm glad to see the world hasn't completely given up on the concept behind the discontinued Choco Taco

Cool finding. I also like that the post makes it sound like there are institutes filled with full-time "velvet underground researchers." I'd like to live in that reality

💀 omg, more of this and less of everything else that is being normalized lately

I gotta say, I wouldn't have clocked these for being from 1895 immediately after Roentgen's discovery of X-rays. I feel like the field of medical imaging moved pretty slow for the period after this.

As an imaging scientist, I will never type the word "imagine" without typing "imaging" first.

"Chladni figures" from 1787 created by German physicist and musician Ernst Chladni, showing nodal patterns made by drawing a bow along the edge of a sand-covered plate. More here: https://publicdomainreview.org/collection/chladni-figures-1787

Also A+ use of what looks like video of a Yayoi Kusama installation in the background

As a fan of the em and en dashes prior to the explosion of its use with ChatGPT, I'm conflicted. One one hand, I am happy others will now use this helpful punctuation; however, I don't like that people view it as a signal that GPT was the source of the writing.

Writing 'Hope all is well!' in an email has felt increasingly awkward lately. Like, no, all is clearly not well, but what am I supposed to do, write 'Hope things are medium okay'?

I'm hiring! I'm recruiting a postdoctoral scholar to help launch and shape my new lab at @uoknightcampus.bsky.social!! careers.uoregon.edu/en-us/job/53...

Finally fulfilled my dream of owning a 1952 Topps card with this Larry Doby gem. Sharing it on Jackie Robinson Day because Doby was the second African American in MLB, following Robinson. Both legends broke barriers, inspiring us toward equality and inclusion. #JackieRobinsonDay #LarryDoby

Pub alert for a paper written in collaboration with Mike King's lab where we used focused ultrasound to mechanically stimulate prostate tumor cells in vivo, enhancing apoptosis. Congratulations to our brilliant team members, Abigail Fabiano and Malachy Newman, for their exceptional work!

I've been calling every day to see what our Republican Senators in Tennessee's official stance is on the NIH cuts and firings: Marsha Blackburn: (202) 224-3344 Bill Hagerty: (202) 224-4944 No word yet. The interns at Hagerty's office are friendly. Marsha's goes to voicemail

Happy to share our latest research on tracking tumor response in triple-negative breast cancer using ultrafast doppler ultrasound, paving the way for personalized treatments. Grateful for the amazing collaborative work with Shannon and the Rafat lab! 🩺🔬 #CancerResearch #BreastCancer #Immunotherapy

"If you look at conditions like depression or epilepsy, [up to] a third of these patients just don’t get better. It’s those groups where a technology like this could be a life-changing solution." www.theguardian.com/science/2025...

Get in ultrasound researchers, we're making this Blue Sky thing happen. I'm making an ultrasound researchers starter pack, and I'm not stopping until I get 150 of you on there: go.bsky.app/5cRvjPz

If you are a public servant (government/academic/research, etc.) or working on topics that are specifically under attack, I just want to say my heart is with you. Your work is valuable. You are valuable.

I'm trying *very* hard to not freak out (on public forums) about everything that is going to happen with this administration; however, if the new admin disrupts NIH funding, it will mean I have to fire people and/or change my career

Not an expert on birds or aviation but I think this guy is falling rather than flying

get in loser we’re buying electrical components for a side project we don’t have time for 🚀

Neuroscience students asked us to teach a PRACTICAL course on experimental methods, and it is now on YouTube! Please like and repost to help us get the word out! www.youtube.com/playlist?lis... Lecture 1: Signals and data acquisition Focusing on hardware, digital/analog I/O, synchronization 🧵

As a Texan, I'm pretty far from British and don't get worked up about tea, but even I can tell that microwaving water in a mug and then putting the tea bag in tastes worse to me

If anyone here manages a weekly seminar at their university or wherever, I'd be interested to know how you select your speakers. I have a list of many people I'd love to have visit and am trying to figure out how to select

Opportunity at a super cool nonprofit FRO in the ultrasound neurotech space!

Learning about imaging CSF *and* Japanese food. A+

Back in action here and happy to be sharing this collaborative work with @rafatlab.bsky.social where we look at tumors with high frame rate Doppler

100% -- don't be afraid to show us your data, warts and all.. we can handle it and it's much better than a reviewer finding it later

Got my flu shot! #flulapalooza

Reskeeting to see what it feels like to learn into the weirdness 🤔

Seeing the term "reskeet," and as someone who was alive 2004 to 2010 I don't think this is a good term

All who celebrate international cat day, please meet Porchy!

As evidenced by Nobel prize winner Karl von Frisch here, science is often not the kind of job where you think: "Hey, one day I want do to do X." Or maybe Karl did, but I'd like to think not in this scenario https://acousticstoday.org/at-collections-underwater-hearing/

I am worried by the popularity of this post that there are people who think tex-mex isn't good. These people cannot be trusted

We have a no smoking policy at the med center, and my office exits to a good hiding place. It always cracks me up when I leave work and a grown adult cups their cigarette in their hand in shame like I'm a high school teacher busting them behind the gym or something
