🚨New preprint from the lab!🚨 We found a preference for visual objects in the mouse spatial navigation system and discovered that visual objects dynamically boost the encoding of head-direction! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 🧵👇1/
Finally it's out! nature.com/articles/s4158… Thanks to Felix Baier, Karl Farrow and Hopi Hoekstra! And a big thank you to all the co-authors, reviewers, host institutes and funding sources! @BramNuttin, Arnau Sans Dublanc, Chen Liu, Victoria Tong, Julie Murmann and Keimpe Wierda
How flexible are essential innate behaviours and their underlying neural circuits? @Felix_Baier and I, with @HoekstraLab and @FarrowLab, addressed this question by studying the #evolution of threat avoidance in sister-species of Peromyscus mice. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Now out in #NatureNeuroscience: new paper from our lab — "Temporal control of progenitor competence shapes maturation in GABAergic neuron development in mice." Congrats to first authors Ann Bright, Yana Kotlyarenko, Florian Neuhaus! nature.com/articles/s4159…
🚀New from Urban Lab in #eNeuro @SfNJournals We used spatiotemporal clustering of single fUS voxels to map visual activity in awake mice. This high-resolution method precisely separates signals, revealing fine-grained activity patterns like never before tinyurl.com/47t27c7k
Help support @joe_wekselblatt and Neena Leggett that lost their house in #PalisadesWildfire, this is link to their #GoFundMe page: gofund.me/8bf7e445 Joe is a senior researcher and my colleague at @UCLA. Any donations will help, thanks!
We have a new PhD position available. Please spread the word and retweet. The project will combine retina recordings, computational modeling, and optogenetics to help further develop vision restoration therapy. See here for more information: retina.uni-goettingen.de/join-the-lab/
The lab has an open PhD position, to start as soon as possible. Very exciting opportunity to apply/learn miniscope imaging techniques to understand the role of hypothalamic circuits in learning and memory. Please share widely! ovgu.b-ite.careers/56yvk #neuroscience #neurojobs
Have you ever wondered how memories are processed downstream of the #hippocampus and how this is affected by #Alzheimer's? We believe we may find some answers by riding all the way down the fornix to the mammillary body. Apply here for a #PhD with us: ovgu.b-ite.careers/56yvk
Wir freuen uns mit @yourUMG und @moser_tmoser über die Bewilligung eines neuen SFB. Ziel ist es, vorhandene Therapien für Patient*innen mit Sinnes- und Bewegungseinschränkungen zu verbessern und neue Behandlungsansätze zu finden. Mehr unter s.gwdg.de/g6snF5 @dfg_public
How natural stimuli lead to highly correlated ganglion cell activity in primate (marmoset) and mouse retina. Now out in @nature. nature.com/articles/s4158…
The deadline to the 2nd Subcortical Sensory Circuits conference is now extended to the 30th! See here the amazing list of invited speakers we have lined up: RTs appreciated!
Announcing the 2nd Subcortical Sensory Circuits meeting! We have amazing speakers, including Sonja Hofer (@SonjaBHofer) and David Anderson (Caltech) Subcortical Sensory Circuits: From Perception to Behavior Feb 11-14, 2025 Assisi, Italy meetings.embo.org/event/25-subco… #EMBOcircuits
📰Excited to share our latest work just published in @NatureComms Endothelial Piezo1 channel mediates mechano-feedback control of brain blood flow nature.com/articles/s4146… 🧵
