I was wondering about virus aliquot storage for so long! Nice that someone check it out! 😎

Delighted to share our new paper on high-resolution optogenetics to probe subthreshold dynamics and to unmask place fields! Huge thanks to the co-authors, my family in the Buzsáki lab, and colleges. Here’s is a thread to save you the 10 min it takes to read a @Science paper 😊

Talk about topical #neuroscience! 🤩 Congrats to Terranova JI et al. & the Kitamura lab @UTSWNews for this exciting Neuron pub on HPC-BLA memory engram circuitry underlying empathy-driven observational fear.👏 nVokeᵀᴹ #calciumimaging + more ⬇️ hubs.ly/Q013M5Y50

This is worth 2 Oscars at least...

Excited to share our Nature Communications paper that aimed to identify memory engrams distributed throughout the brain. 7 years in the making. This one needed a lot of help from so many fantastic authors! rdcu.be/cKDwn

How to read a paper in your field (thread): 1. Run across the title. Small panic. Isn’t that exactly the same idea you were testing?? 2. Read Abstract. Relief. It’s clearly not the same. Or is it? 😱

Beyond excited to share our latest work now online @bioRxiv. We looked at the functioning of fear engrams and the NPYergic circuit of the dorsal dentate gyrus during remote memory generalization. dlvr.it/SPKGRK

The Best Scientists 🧵 I have heard a lot about the Best Scientists 🧑‍🔬 Maybe the best scientists... make impactful discoveries, publish in gilded journals, garner millions in funding, with lots of indirects. And prizes, all the prizes🏆 And everybody respects them. OR…

Maybe the best scientists are not the best in the classroom. Their transcripts have some blemishes ❌ They ask their mentors questions. They ask too many, and they are told to go away 🐝 So they find better mentors and ask them the questions.

Since I know quite a few of my fellow postdocs will be in the academic job market this coming cycle, I want to share a list of senior postdoc seminar series (Neuroscience field) I applied for (the first three) and the ones that I recently came across online.

Proud to be a part of a group that just published in nature a role for CCR5 in closing the temporal window for linking memories by modulating excitability and memory ensemble overlap. Also, CCR5 increases account for age-related loss in memory linking! tinyurl.com/bvv835wh

New paper from my lab. With the heroic effort by Dr. Sora Shin Sora Shin, we were able to provide some evidence linking early life stress and binge-eating disorder in animal model. nature.com/articles/s4159…

it's really a gut punch to realize that someone who was supposed to be supporting you has been giving you absolutely destructive advice and preventing your advancement.
