Nick Robinson & Michael Häusser et al Neural Computation Lab show that targeted opto stimulation of ~20 place cells was sufficient to bias the spatial behavior of animals during a spatial memory task! Finally!!! zpr.io/HSCf9

We have spent years trying to figure out optogenetic silencing of long-range neural projections. This preprint is the result of many years of work by many people, and I think we can finally say we have a good solution. Available very soon on Addgene: biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…

What if I told you that, during REM sleep, the hippocampus and the retrosplenial cortex chat about recent experiences to process contextual information? More info below! nature.com/articles/s4159…

Andre F. de Sousa and Ananya Chowdhury in our lab just published a compelling review in Neuron of how time, space, and perceptual/conceptual similarities are used to organize related memories! Check it out! authors.elsevier.com/a/1dNDa3BtfGzk…

Do you do behavior? Do you use markerless pose tracking? (eg DeepLabCut 🦄) Do you want to reliably reproduce and automate your analysis (especially freezing)? New no-code MATLAB app just dropped 🔥 My first postdoc paper from Laura DeNardo lab, with lead @cjgabrie28 and many others!

@NeuronCellPress from Ayal Lavi, @Megha_Sehgal_10, Andre F. de Sousa, Alessandro Luchetti reporting the discovery of a retrograde mechanism that coordinates memory ensembles across brain regions! authors.elsevier.com/a/1gIGY3BtfH1Z…

So excited to see our Neuron paper on memory coordination across brain regions featured in PNASNews with insights from Steve Ramirez. pnas.org/post/journal-c… Alcino J Silva @Megha_Sehgal_10 Andre F. de Sousa Alessandro Luchetti

No direct projection from ACC to the hippocampus, after all.

Haven't seen a Nature paper on synaptic plasticity in a while! This paper from Ulli Bayer's group shows that CaMKII's role in LTP induction is not enzymatic/phosphorylation of substrates like the AMPARs but a "structural" interaction with the NMDARs. nature.com/articles/s4158…
