New computational modelling of CRH neurons recently published in Journal of Physiology. We combined electrophysiology and computational approaches to examine membrane dynamics of CRH neurons and found two subtypes of these cells. Just don't ask me about the math! physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1113/JP…

(1/7) Now that SfN is over, sate your neuro hunger with a new preprint from the talented MD/PhD student, Ravi Pancholi: "Microstimulation of sensory cortex engages natural sensory representations" biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Neural circuit mechanisms for transforming learned olfactory valences into wind-oriented movement biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #bioRxiv

Seizures are just hyperexcitability, right? Think again! Inhibition is everywhere in the brain, but how does it change during a seizure? We re-imagined a new approach to assay neuronal excitability using all-optical interrogation in vivo. Check it out! 👇 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Very excited to share our new work using unsupervised machine learning to characterize family specific vocal usage in the Mongolian gerbil! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

How does microstimulation of cortex, which at best targets specific areas, reliably produce natural percepts? In the latest Current Biology, Ravi Pancholi shows that optical microstimulation of barrel cortex engages natural sensory populations. doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.…

🔥 How does the brain select what to remember? Our new work sheds light on the brain's mechanism for memory selection, uncovering a relationship between awake and sleep replays. Come check our Buzsaki lab poster at on Nov 12th (1PM-5PM EST)! Bord #SS17, PSTR174.13 1/

Hypothalamic CRH neurons remember the good and the bad … and they do it their own way! Amazing persistence by Tamás Füzesi and great teamwork. Also a huge thanks to Wilten Nicola! nature.com/articles/s4146…

Our first major story is online. We link stem cells to Olf. Nav circuit & behavior. Excellent work by Aisha Hamid Hannah et al. & a fantastic collaboration with Kathy, who is an outstanding scientist & person. Thanks to all the authors 1/n cell.com/current-biolog…

We are looking for a postdoc to lead a new project in olfactory diagnostics: can we detect human diseases using the mammalian olfactory system as supersensitive, broadband chemical detector? A lot of imaging, data analysis and gas chromatography…. rinberglab.com/positions
