Check by a 5yr journey of the lab in mice & humans, just up on bioRxiv! Post-ictal symptoms can be life-threatening, & basic mechanisms are mostly unclear. 1/2 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

My department is looking to hire multiple Assistant Professors in computational biology, which includes comp neuroscience. It's a great opportunity to be part of a university-wide initiation in AI. Check it out: careers.purdue.edu/job/Assistant-…

New pre-print alert from our lab! Led by Meisam Habibi Matin and supported by Shulan Xiao , we show how mild focal cooling differentially impacts dendritic integration, plasticity, and input-output transformations across the basal-tuft axis of L5. Can cooling be used neuromodulate?

Can you access the entire central nervous system simultaneously including spinal cord and deep brain structures in a minimally invasive way? Presenting endocisternal interfaces (ECI's)! 🙏Jacob Robinson Peter Kan nature.com/articles/s4155…

Congrats Anja Kunze, Ph.D. and Connor Beck . Looking forward to connor joining Purdue Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering #boilerup

Cool study led by Mitra Javadzadeh and Marine Schimel on the function of inter-areal communication in the neocortex, using data from my lab and biologically-constrained latent circuit modelling with Guillaume Hennequin and Yashar Ahmadian biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

An n-doped capacitive transparent conductor for all-polymer electrochromic displays. Nat Electron (2024) We have dedicated three years to studying micropatterning techniques for each layer within electrochromic displays. Integrating these patterned layers into a single device

Mark your calendars for our 2025 seminar speaker series.

I am super excited to share our article addressing a longstanding question in neurobiology: how Ca²⁺ signaling cascades initiated at dendritic spines operate at a distance. Check it out here: authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S00… Cell

Looking to start off the new year with a bang? How about a postdoc position in intracortical BCIs to restore speech, as part of the BrainGate Team clinical trial? Come join us!! snel.ai/positions/spee…

Delighted for our first Neurodegeneration paper. Led by the indomitable Hammad Khan we reveal cortical circuit biomarkers delineating gradual progression of Lewy pathology across synucleinopathies rdcu.be/d5f3w Purdue Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering Research at Purdue Purdue Life Sciences Purdue Borch MCMP

New research from Hammad Khan Krishna Jayant & colleagues finds that site-specific seeding of #Parkinsons-associated Lewy pathology induces distinct pre-motor cellular & dendritic vulnerabilities in the cortex nature.com/articles/s4146…

📣 It's not too late apply for the 2025 GRC on "Dendrites: Molecules, Structure and Function" - - reliably a fabulous meeting on the 🧠 - - happening this March.

Check out the recent publication in Nature Communications led by the Jayant lab in collaboration with the Kinzer-Ursem lab: “Site-specific seeding of Lewy pathology induces distinct pre-motor cellular and dendritic vulnerabilities in the cortex”. doi.org/10.1038/s41467…

Fresh off the press, our paper linking #TravelingWaves #Cortex #Dendrites #inhibition is online Science Advances. Brilliant effort by Daniel Gonzales Hammad Khan Hayagreev Keri and others. A big thanks to Lyle Muller Pluta Lab & NIH Common Fund AFOSR science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Sensory inputs trigger a fast-traveling wave, followed by a slower wave carrying top-down info (value/choice). The late wave reactivates ensembles in superficial cortical layers. Very cool science.org/doi/full/10.11… #neuroscience

We're recruiting a technician to help with our work on neurons! 🧠 Great opportunity to work with Di Wu and other awesome scientists Caltech. Please RT.

📢 Excited to share our new paper out today in Nature Neuroscience! 🧠✨ We uncover how compartmentalized dendritic plasticity in the retrosplenial cortex (RSC) links contextual memories formed close in time. A thread 🧵👇 [1/8] nature.com/articles/s4159…
