We are #hiring! 🧠 MPFI’s Rangaraju Lab (Vidhya Rangaraju, PhD) is accepting applications for a Research Technician. This important role will play a big part in understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms of neuronal energy use and supply during plasticity. This is a great




Ending 2024 with our lab paper in Cell In this collaboration with Lorena Benedetti, Lippincott-Schwartz Lab, and Ryan Lab, we (Ruolin Fan) provided our expertise in ER calcium imaging (Fig. 7) to show that ER acts like superhighways in neurons, helping signals travel long distances

🎉 Kicking off 2025 with a celebration: our lab turns 5! 💰 2 major grants NIH Common Fund CZI Science 📜 5 publications + 1 preprint 🏆 Lab members winning big awards 🎓 Alumni off to top-tier schools Grateful for my brilliant team—here’s to the next 5 years of discovery! 🚀🙌


Registration closes Wednesday for our Neurotechniques Course!! Register: mpfi.org/neuroimaging Theory and hands-on teaching by incredible team of neuro experts including Stefan W. Hell @DanielBAharoni Tristan Geiller Ahmed Abdelfattah tina kim Ann Kennedy Lin Tian, PhD & more!


It was an absolute honor to have been part of the iconic Music and Mind series with none other than the opera legend (and LoTR fame) Renée Fleming 🎶 #MusicAndMind #ReneeFleming Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience

Thank you to the Carl Angus DeSantis Foundation for featuring MPFI postdoc Ilika Ghosh, who works in the lab of Vidhya Rangaraju, PhD. The DeSantis Foundation generously supports Ilika's work into how the brain uses energy to form memories properly. Read more about Dr. Ghosh, as

I’m incredibly grateful to receive the Carl Angus DeSantis Foundation grant for the next three years to study the energy supply mechanisms of memory formation. Huge thanks to my mentor Vidhya Rangaraju, PhD for the advanced training and Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience for the cutting-edge infrastructure.


Excited to share our latest preprint! Grateful to Vidhya Rangaraju, PhD for the advanced training that made it possible for me to lead this project. We show how neurons power up precisely where and when they need energy to form new memories—in real time! #Neuroscience #BrainEnergy
