We had a very nice session on the central control of thermoregulation at the American Physiological Society meeting, Thanks Domenico Tupone for organizing — it was nice meeting you all Dr. Stephanie Correa (she/her) Aki Fukushima, Kazu Nakamura and all others

Spur your research with the help of our Core Facilities! Find out more on Tuesday during the Core Facility Symposium of the Cellnetworks Core Technology Platform. Registration NOT mandatory, just swing by!

It was great being back to ⁦UC San Francisco⁩ thanks for hosting me ⁦Zachary Knight⁩ - very nice meeting you again ⁦Diana Bautista⁩ ⁦Jennifer Garrison⁩ - great company, delicious food and a driverless car (that brought me safely to the Mission) concluded a fantastic visit!

Great to see David Julius and Jeannie @ucsf and to get to know the current members of the DJ lab - great crew, beautiful science and good memories of old times.

Wow! Beeindruckend wie ihr zum einen die fehlerhaften Herzklappen für den Operateur zur "Test-OP" herstellen und anschliessend, nach der Korrektur, auch noch im Fluss testen könnt. Hört sich für den Laien sehr sinnvoll an, das Ganze vor der eigentlichen OP zu testen.

An Intra-Hypothalamic Pathway Modulating Body Temperature and Feeding biorxiv.org/content/10.110… A must read if you are interested in relationship between torpor and feeding.🌡❄️🍔

Thursday Evening session Chair: #ThomasKilduff 1st talk: A Heat Acclimation-Induced Hypothalamic Plasticity Mechanism that Drives Heat Tolerance and Resilience to Hot Environments - Jan Siemens 🇪🇺🇺🇦 siemenslab.de elifesciences.org/reviewed-prepr… biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Very much enjoyed the #HypoGRC conference. Here our temperature session with Thomas Kilduff (chair), Laura R Cortés, Natalia Machado, MS, PhD, Adam Calvin Nelson and Siniša Hrvatin demonstrating huddling (to keep warm)

Great study about a little understood aspect of calcium homeostasis and the identification of a new hormone - I recommend to listen to the nature podcast to learn how difficult it was (and still is) to detect and get a grip on CCN3

Queen guitarist Brian May on science: "Everything comes down to asking the right questions and keeping an open mind, and resisting the terrible inclination that scientists have, because they’re human beings, of finding what you expect to find." go.nature.com/4dT5kOU

Check out this very interesting “Whisker-Learning” model using unrestrained mice from the Groh lab, allowing for more naturalistic explorative behavior than in head-restrained animals. It is compatible with in vivo neuronal recordings and manipulations.

Very interesting study by the Ivo Spiegel combining ex vivo and in vivo recordings to show how short-term and longer-term synaptic plasticity interact to homeostatically reduce neuronal activity back to levels observed before light stimulation, implicating Npas4 in the process.
