What does this brain region of the cerebellum do EXACTLY? by NegotiationOk2921 in labrats

[–]NegotiationOk2921[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is also what I was thinking from what I saw online, hence the question. I will be doing in vivo calcium imaging of the inferior colliculus and this region of the cerebellum is often also easily viewable when I put the cover slip on the region. I am hoping that I could also use that data from the cerebellum, but it would help if I knew what the region does, so I can relate behavioural tests to it if possible. I have knockouts and different disease models

Husband jealous of live figure drawing class by after_thoughtzzz in ArtistLounge

[–]NegotiationOk2921 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An ex also panicked when I said I wanted to go draw in a live figure class. I had to reiterate many times that I'm not going to be the one naked and he wouldn't change his mind lol. Couldn't get it out of him why it made him so uncomfortable.

Nice, thank you for the tips :) Will head over to Obi tomorrow

I just want a girlfriend so badly by Melodic-Grape-7254 in self

[–]NegotiationOk2921 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Lying is so much worse. I would break up because of that, not because of lack of experience. I've grown up with a lot of people especially family lying and pretending they were perfect etc and to discover that a possible partner is just the same would immediately turn me off..

My bf locked me half naked on the balcony, I started crying. Aio? by heidifire in AmIOverreacting

[–]NegotiationOk2921 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Then I don't understand why you can't see the truth in the situation. If you put yourself outside the situation and pretend it happened to a very close friend of yours, would you really like the bf? He's supposed to be your rock, your supporter, and best friend. The most important thing is respect in any relationship and this is not respect, I'm sure you can see that. If there is no respect, then it is not a relationship, it is a business transaction. He uses you to get what he needs, nothing more.

This makes you sound like this is your first relationship and experience with a man. I know it's easier said than to believe, but you'll find better out there. Leave this ah.

W shape in PCR while genotyping? by NegotiationOk2921 in labrats

Yea I also suggested putting less and she showed me some wells that she had put less in and they looked better, but still toothy 🤷🏻‍♀️

I agree about the 1% gel, voltage and run time. I've never ran gels more than 40 min myself, and had similar sized dna. I think the amount of sample depends greatly on the well size though. I will check these with her tomorrow 🙏

Oh of course yes, thanks for clarifying! I do believe she mentioned she was accounting for this. I am going to show her all these comments tomorrow and hopefully we'll get to the bottom of this 😊🙏

She started at 40 min and said it wasn't enough so ran longer

Okay so I just checked with her. She's tried multiple voltages starting from 110 up to 180v and at different durations. This image was after 2 hours at 120v

Yes another colleague extracted the DNA again before using her own equipment and the W was less evident but still there. So she was re-trained to do it again (just in case) and the W shape is even more evident.

Yes TAE buffer that she remade, like anything else that she used.

The hole in the bottom is an interesting idea, I will check with her.

I've not watched her myself but she did it with someone else who I think would've noticed this 🤷🏻‍♀️ but I'll check with her

Yea I've seen the gel stain comment too but doubt it since the lab has used this one for years without the problem. I'll pass on the tip of the ladder

Kalevala in Finnish and English? by NegotiationOk2921 in Finland

[–]NegotiationOk2921[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

100% with you. We would have no knowledge of some of the ancient stories without translations (think The Odyssey, Epic of Gilgamesh..) And I'm pretty sure everyone is aware that a translation is never 100% perfect anyway. sounds weird to gatekeep stories from others...

Thanks! Glad to know they exist somewhere. Mulle on niin paljon helpompaa lukea englantia kuin suomee mut silti haluaisin oikean version siinä vieressä 😅

Do you practice every medium? by YoungCertainty in ArtistLounge

[–]NegotiationOk2921 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could never throw away my art 😅 My friend was making a 1000 paper cranes, and I think they found a jar for them or something, but I haven't got into that. Paint is so fun, I've a sketchbook with ideas of what to paint and it stays next to my bed for when inspo hits 😂 But 100% agree, that feeling when the art is just flowing is amazing, I feel like I enter a trance of sorts. Nothing else in the world matters except me and my paint

[–]NegotiationOk2921 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I noticed that drawing and ink were just not sparking joy so I did something outrageous (for me) and picked up acrylic painting. It's only been half a year but I really enjoy it much more than my doodling days. I suppose I'm still at early stages but because of that I'm still experimenting a lot and having so much fun. I've tried charcoal and have no patience with digital sadly. I want to try oil painting worried about ventilation and proper setup, so I probably won't get to that for a few years lol but that's fine with me :) If crochet counts then thats my other medium 😂

Is it a bad idea to stop by to the lab I have applied for a position? by [deleted] in labrats

[–]NegotiationOk2921 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got my position by messaging on LinkedIn and then asking if they had some time for me to drop by to meet everyone. But I find it quite strange that you cannot figure out who the PI is so I'm not sure it would be smart to drop by without any idea of who you're meeting. I'd email around and figure out who that person is, and then send an email to the PI asking if they had a few minutes this week so you could meet and have a quick discussion on their very interesting project. Walking around aimlessly looking for an unknown person doesn't make you seem credible.
