Very excited that our whole-mouse-brain analysis pipeline - DELiVR - is published now at Nature Methods. With DELiVR, we built an open-source, easy-to-use pipeline for analyzing image stacks from cleared mouse brains.

Hello — I’m Joy, a health & medical writer doing research communications.
I work with researchers and health organizations to turn complex research into clear, responsible communication — research summaries, patient-friendly materials, outreach content.
I’m especially interested in:
• #neuroscience
• #brain #research
• ethical #science communication
I’d love to hear about what you’re working on.

🧠🎮 DYK that having to pee might make you a more elite gamer?
Researchers found that the need to "hold it in" spills over into other parts of the #brain, leading to more patient, less impulsive decisions suitable for tough boss battles.

ggseg 2.0: One atlas object for both 2D and 3D brain visualization.
In v1, you loaded `dk` for 2D and `dk_3d` for 3D. You kept both in your head, hoping region names matched. They usually did. Usually.
That's gone. One call — dk() — feeds both renderers.

« Tu sais, parfois j’entends une petite voix dans ma tête… C’est normal ? »
En réponse à cette question d'enfant, avec les artistes Johann Charvel, Céline Chevrel et Mickaël Chouquet, nous avons co-écrit « Jeanne et le secret des petites voix dans la tête » : un album art-science pour explorer le langage intérieur avec les enfants (dès 4 ans).

You are not (just) your brain.
"If you look closely at our nervous system, you’ll see that there are neuronal clusters distributed throughout the body. Human computation is better understood as distributed than centralized.
The gut has 500 million neurons, which is about the same count as a dog’s brain. This is connected to the brain through roughly 30,000 fibers, most of which lead from gut to head."

The long-term study suggests #caffeine may help preserve neural networks and reduce #brain inflammation as we age.
New neuromapr #rstats package is available from GitHub! Highly experimental, early adopters and bug identifiers are super welcome to report issues!
It implements the framework from Markello et al. (2022, Nature Methods) and is aligned with the neuromaps Python reference implementation. Co-developed with Claude Code.
