I'm giving a talk at Cosyne this year on brain states during development! :) :) 'Emergence of state modulation in a developing cortical circuit'. With @SofiaZangila, Rosa Cossart & Jean-Claude Platel Sunday, 11:40, in person or on YouTube: youtube.com/@cosynetalks

Polizia e Digos. Pericolosi criminali

Chinese researchers with an expired US visa stamp can use the “automatic revalidation” policy to return to the US. However, given the recent uncertainties, people like me who are about to graduate/start new positions are worried that they could be banned from entering the border

I’m sad #cosyne2025 doesn’t allow virtual presentation. Decided not to attend today due to the recent US border uncertainty. I had to withdraw my poster as the only replacing presenter I could find is presenting a poster in a different session, which is not allowed somehow…

📣 We’re hiring! 🚨 PhD position to study SOCIAL CODING in 🐭 S1 and mPFC using longitudinal INSCOPIX recordings from WT and socially amnesic mice during social tasks! Strong data analysis & computational modeling component. Co-sup with @lorifonto & @GuignardLab. DM if interested

One of the most influential books I ever read. Also a key motivating force in getting me to return to science from unemployment.

Grateful to @ERC_Research and the LS5 panel members for awarding my project an ERC Starting Grant!! We'll soon be hiring at all levels—if you're interested in our work, please get in touch! #ERCStG

Excited to share my first paper from Inagaki Lab @MPFNeuro! How does the “timer” in our brain control movement? We discovered specialized computational roles of the frontal cortex and striatum that implement such an action timer⏱️ biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Please retweet and share your feedback!! #biorxivneuroscience #firstfirstauthor #frontalcortex #striatum #motortiming

From Tetris to Zelda, to Elden Ring and League of Legends, our new preprint with @ValerianChambon delves into the diversity of video games and gamers' preferences 🎮. We present a cognitive framework for understanding this diversity. Paper and more at the end of this thread ⬇️

Thanks! 🙏

Last week my university @UGent approved non-competitive research financing for all professors. The idea is that each professor (all ranks) would receive a yearly amount of research funding of ca. 30.000 euro (so two professors can jointly hire one PhD student). 1/2

Wow our government made it into Nature AND Science this week 🫠 French scientists alarmed by ‘disastrous’ cut to research budget | Science | AAAS science.org/content/articl…
