This paper is the outcome of a long and arduous journey toward an optogenetic dissection of local circuit connectivity in the prefrontal cortex. We combined opsin engineering, 2-photon imaging, new analysis tools and hundreds of hours of complex experiments...

Pinpoint, our trajectory planning software for electrophysiology in mice, has just had a major upgrade - and is now described in a preprint! Use Pinpoint here: data.virtualbrainlab.org/pinpoint/ Read about Pinpoint here: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Brain state transitions primarily impact the spontaneous rate of slow-firing neurons - now out in Cell Reports doi.org/10.1016/j.celr…

I am thrilled to see my postdoctoral work finally published in Nature Neuroscience ! (free access here: rdcu.be/dpQhG). We used in vivo ephys and a new behavioral paradigm to elucidate what the PFC represents when mice face danger. These are the main findings of our work: 🧵

Have you wondered whether fast spatiotemporal brain dynamics like traveling waves are local, confined to just one region, or whether they are shared across many regions simultaneously? The latest work from Zhiwen Ye in my lab has the answer! Thread- biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

New methods make it possible to probe the neural substrates of memory with unprecedented precision. Making the most of them demands careful experimental design. By Stephen Maren thetransmitter.org/learning/learn…

Exciting News! My first paper from my PhD research is now available as a preprint on bioRxiv! We explored the interesting possibility that IL's activity and plasticity during fear memory consolidation facilitates later extinction. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Very excited to share the preprint for my first, first author research article in which we examined the impact of acute stress on instrumental avoidance!! biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…

🚨New lab preprint! Massive effort by Tuğçe Tuna Michael Totty Flávio Mourão w/ Moh Milad's lab to characterize nucleus reuniens activity in rats (fiber photometry, single-unit recordings) and humans (fMRI) during fear conditioning and extinction. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

How are long-term memories stored in the amygdala? How are old memories integrated with new memories over time? We discuss this and more in a new review led by Jianfeng Liu with Hugo Bayer and Steve Maren 🐀🧠💭😨. biologicalpsychiatryjournal.com/article/S0006-…

This marks my first-author contribution as part of the Maren Lab team! Our findings shed new light on the mechanisms underlying context-dependent extinction of learned fear. Huge thanks to Steve Maren 🐀🧠💭😨 , Tuğçe Tuna , and Michael Totty for teamwork. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Congratulations to the newly minted Dr. Hugo Bayer (Hugo Bayer ) !! Great work and super cool story ! 🍾👏🥳🎉

🚨New paper🚨 Excited to share this collaborative paper exploring nucleus reuniens correlates of fear conditioning in both rats and humans! Congrats Tuğçe Tuna Flávio Mourão Michael Totty Muhammad Badarnee and Moh Milad!! rdcu.be/eyTPs
