Super excited to be among these pairs together with David Dupret from University of Oxford to get at the molecules of the mind! 🤯🧬 The idea for this originated when we were both at the FENS Kavli Network !

Well earned and many congratulations Pavan.

Superb work further establishing a central role for circuit dysfunction in 'motor neuron' diseases.

Terrific new study by Alexander Mathis Alexander Mathis uses modeling to crack the code of proprioception - how we are cognizant of the position and movements of our body. cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

Workshop alert: Together w Gioele La Manno we organize on April 29 a 1day onsite event at EPFL about computational imaging based ST feat Carolina Wählby, MatsNilssonLab & local ppl EPFL Life Sciences EPFL Center for Imaging . epfl.ch/labs/weigert-l…

Is the weakening of motor ability with age inevitable? In a new study, we find that increasing levels of the protein Trio in aging #Drosophila preserves motor synaptic structures, improves function and defers the age-dependent decline of motor ability cell.com/cell-reports/f…

The McCabe Lab group in @brainmind_EPFL identify a protein that can delay the decline of motor ability during aging - actu.epfl.ch/news/a-key-pro… EPFL Life Sciences EPFL Schweizerischer Nationalfonds (SNF)

Fantastic science, fun and fresh air at this years EPFL Brain Mind Institute retreat in Gstaad 🇨🇭

The lab of EPFL Brain Mind Institute professor Pavan Ramdya Pavan Ramdya reveal how the #Drosophila brain can transform relatively simple neuronal patterns into complex behavioral actions - actu.epfl.ch/news/fruit-fly…

🚀Super happy that our latest research has finally been published in Nature Neuroscience! We delve into the world of human neural development. Our findings shed light on the dynamic epigenetic changes that guide cell fate from pluripotency to fully differentiated neural cells.🧠🔬🧵

Congratulations to EPFL Brain Mind Institute professors Mackenzie Mathis Mackenzie Weygandt Mathis, PhD and Alexander Mathis Alexander Mathis on the receipt of the Eric Kandel Young Neuroscientists Prize at the #FENSForum2024 meeting in Vienna today.
