- Thanks for the follow @AndrewYang and for supporting important clinical research like psilocybin for the treatment of depression. And I of course love your #Math pin!
- I must admit, I was never a @hubermanlab fan. There was something snake oil salesman-y about him and a feeling of "bro"-culture/toxic masculinity. Many others in the #neuroscience field agreed. This @NYMag cover story checks out. It's long, but I encourage reading to the end.For our latest cover story, @KerryHowley went deep into the wellness-obsessed world of Andrew Huberman, talking with former girlfriends who reveal a darker side to the neuroscientist-turned-podcast host: manipulative behavior, deceit, and numerous affairs trib.al/4xfCfq3

- How is #consciousness tied to the #brain? Where does it go when you go under anesthesia, & how does it seamlessly return in such a controlled way? We explored this live, during surgery @MassGeneralNews @harvardmed w/ anesthesiologist Emory Brown for our latest @novapbs @PBS shoot
- My new @TEDx talk is now online! "Who is Your Brain?" Had a case of laryngitis but made it thru :) @TEDxAsburyPark
- Tiny island of green. Please be smart, listen to #scientists & #WearAMask. Thank you @NYGovCuomo @melissadderosa

My heart is with you @celinegounder.
- Happy #EarthDay2018! Let's remember our gracious host on this beautiful day and be considerate, respectful guests. She'll go on living without us, it is we who cannot survive without her and her generous gifts. Shout-out to the sun too! ;-)
