My lab SISSA in Trieste, Italy, is looking for a postdoc to join us! We do systems neuroscience in rodents with an ethological/comparative angle. Behaviour, viral tracing, ephys (Neuropixels), 1P imaging... Are you an experimentalist with some experience in one of these?

How does your blue compare to others'? I implemented a new feature on ismy.blue to compare against a database of hundreds of people who took the test.

Very excited to share our new Nat Comm article with Max Eggl, Thomas Chater and Yuki Goda on how the number of co-potentiating neighbors influences plasticity.

As people fill out our survey, we’ve been asked “What is the goal of the SAFE Labs Handbook?” Here’s some more info. TLDR: Help build a practical, evolving tool to improve lab culture. Fill out the survey! forms.office.com/e/XYxs1anhdg

Our work on communication between a student - teacher ANN pair is now out. This is what happens when you let your mentees follow their own ideas. Check it out. nature.com/articles/s4146…

🚨 I am looking for a postdoc! We'll get into multi-site neuropixel recordings and closed-loop stimulation in NHPs performing tasks related to attention, self-control, and decision-making. DMs/emails with questions are welcome. Please share and RT! utaustin.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/UTstaff/job/AU…

Researchers CeNSEatIISc report in nature a brain-inspired platform that can store & process data in 16500 states, a huge leap over digital computers limited to 2 states. It can potentially bring complex AI tasks to personal devices. iisc.ac.in/events/neuromo… #IIScresearch

The 2024 UCL Neuropixels course will take place on 14-16 October. Registration is free. Register today! More info: ucl.ac.uk/neuropixels/tr…

Activity in the M2 predicts upcoming choices. But what does the activity represent? A gaze-centered plan? A world-centered goal? A specific movement? We asked rats to plan responses to different targets from different start position to find out! 1/5 jneurosci.org/content/44/37/…

How does the brain bind action to value? How does it navigate a tradeoff between this binding and generalization to novel situations? Out today in Nature Neuro! rdcu.be/dUbMd Justin Fine @NeuroPolarbear Becket Ebitz Seng Bum Michael Yoo See original 🧵 + updates below

🚨Pls RT: My group Brandeis Neuroscience is recruiting. If you are interested in mechanisms of learning in the brain, in vivo circuit analysis informed by computational modeling, and working in a young lab get in touch. We will also be Society for Neuroscience (SfN). if you want to chat, DM or email me.

New lab paper out in Nature Human Behaviour showing ppl build cognitive maps of social networks to track how information flows. How are these maps built? A replay-like mechanism reshapes them over night😴, making them more abstract, which helps with hardest social navigation problems

We're launching a whole ecosystem of new things at Science! A WiFi 6-enabled acqusition system / headstage, a family of active probes, a standard API for neural interfaces, and more below:

Our paper on longitudinal stability in the representation of decision variables is out

Underestimated females: A new study by Vallentin Lab reveals the influence of females on song learning in zebra finches. Vocal feedback from females can activate a neural circuit in the brain of young males while they are learning their song, increasing its accuracy. Read

Surprising connection uncovered! 🧠 New research on the Australian dragon 🦎 reveals unexpected similarities between the neural networks that control motor rhythms and those managing #sleep. Insights like these help unravel the mysteries of sleep across species. #SleepScience
