<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The MIT Climate & Sustainability Consortium (MCSC)’s newly launched Impact Fellowship Program is a postdoctoral opportunity for individuals who want to transcend academia & industry to apply their expertise
to near-term change for a more sustainable future. MCSC Impact Fellows will work with MIT researchers and consortium industry members – in collaboration with external organizations and communities – to implement solutions needed for global economic transformation
to address the global climate change and sustainability crisis. Throughout the program, Impact Fellows will prepare for leadership positions within the sustainability domain in a wide range of contexts, as well as prepare to drive research that advances breakthrough
scalable solutions towards accelerated change. <strong>Learn more and apply here</strong>: <a href="https://impactclimate.mit.edu/mcsc-impact-fellowship-program/">https://impactclimate.mit.edu/mcsc-impact-fellowship-program/</a></span></p>

<em style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></em><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">An outstanding question in neuroscience is what can be learned about how the brain works by knowing how its neurons are wired together. Tracing
the wiring diagram of a neural circuit is considered a powerful approach to validate or falsify computational models of brain function. However, the success of this approach has been limited by lack of neurotransmitter information, partial reconstructions
of the nervous system, or both. Here, we use high resolution serial section electron microscopy to map the nervous system of an intact vertebrate: the larval zebrafish. We pair electron microscopy with confocal light microscopy of the same brain where the
major excitatory and inhibitory neurons are genetically labeled. By combining connectivity and functional information in an intact animal, we can now interrogate neural circuit models for animal behavior at the system level - from sensory inputs to motor output.</span></p>

more accessible to students and early career scientists around the world. Many students outside of first-world countries have limited resources when it comes to accessing the most current scientific research and journals. Through podcast interviews with researchers,
Science Rehashed is making this information more available to science enthusiasts everywhere.<br>
· 28 episodes; about 7.5K downloads<br>
· In addition to its primary episodes that rehash recently published research directly with researchers/authors, they also have series that focus on legendary researchers including Dr. Bob Langer (MIT), Dr George Church (MIT, Harvard), and a 360 Perspective
series that provides a broad, comprehensive view of a disease, serving as a platform to disperse diverse but accurate information regarding immediate public health concerns, such as the COVID-19 pandemic.<br>
· They are working on a supplemental YouTube channel and different communication platforms to outreach internationally<br>
