The field, at a very nascent stage, is called connectomics, and the neuroscientists pursuing it compare their work to early efforts in genetics. In short, they want to build a full map of the mind. Their goal is to run slice after minuscule slice under a powerful electron microscope, develop detailed pictures of the brain’s complex wiring and then stitch the images back together. Lichtman and his team of researchers at Harvard have built some unusual contraptions that carve off slivers of mouse brains as part of a quest to understand how the mind works. Jeff Lichtman likes his brains sliced thin very, very thin.ĭr. These can be stored in an airtight container for 1-2 weeks at room temperature (if you don't eat them first! ) ).įollow Not Quite Nigella on Email, Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest, YouTube and Facebook.CAMBRIDGE, Mass Dr. Then move to a cooling rack and allow to cool completely. Bake in a preheated oven for 40-45 minutes turning halfway to ensure even browning. Step 3 - Spread out in the prepared tin smoothing the surface with an angled spatula. At this point I like to taste the mixture for the salt-salt really makes such a difference with ANZAC biscuits with the sweetness of the sugar and golden syrup. Add the liquid mix to the dry ingredients stirring until just combined. Step 2 - In a medium bowl add the hot water, golden syrup, vanilla, bicarb and salt and stir to combine (it will fizz, don't worry).

So tell me Dear Reader, do you like ANZAC biscuits? Are you competitive with games? Have you ever played You've Got Crabs?ĭID YOU MAKE THIS RECIPE? Share your creations by tagging on Instagram with the hashtag #notquitenigella Anzac Biscuit Slice I also secretly hoped we'd never play again because I didn't want to break my winning streak! I think it was because Peter tried to catch me out - while I am terrible at following game directions I am not too bad at faking or acting. I truly have no idea how because we were playing abysmally. Somehow, by some miracle, Valentina and I won this game. It's actually a simple game involving pairs and secret signals to each other and catching the other team's signals (like a more complex Go Fish). Also at one stage Valentina asked "Which team am I on?" which was a bit alarming although I couldn't stop laughing when she said that. Neither of us knew much about the game and when Mr NQN played us a video explaining the game we both tuned out. Valentina and I teamed up and we knew that we were at a disadvantage. He and Valentina's husband Peter make a good team as they did well with Pictionary and also Peter and I like to beat each other. Mr NQN knows this and we have a healthy level of competition. It probably stems from my all girl's high school where we would always try and beat the neighbouring boy's school. I don't know if I have ever mentioned this but I like beating guys. He took it out one night when Valentina and Peter were over. We love games nights with friends and he would always talk about a game called "You've got Crabs" which sounds more perverse than it is. He isn't fussed on cookies but give him an ANZAC biscuit and he will eat hungrily sucking a few down in one go with a cup of tea.Īnother instance where he got a bit giddy was about playing his favourite ever game. I don't know why I only make these around ANZAC Day because they're so delicious and they always disappear quickly. One thing that he does get enthusiastic about are ANZAC biscuits. He is literally never excited about anything. While I'm like an effusive, excitable toddler he will hold back all his feelings. There's very little that Mr NQN gets excited about.
