My autobiography is now published on the The Nobel Prize website. It covers both my personal and professional life, highlighting the decisions and events that have had the biggest impact. I appreciate the opportunity to tell my story. Hope you enjoy reading it nobelprize.org/prizes/medicin…

A big shout out to Shuhan Huang for her amazing work with me and Leena Ali Ibrahim , in identifying and studying the role of neurogliaform interneurons in V1 cortex. Come read about how these regulators of cortical function act in different cortical layers! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Amazing time visiting CDN | King's College at Kings to hear about amazing research and plans for future growth. Thanks to Oscar Marín and colleagues for hosting SAB members (Irene Miguel-Aliaga Silvia Arber, Alex Schier, Paola Arlotta, Giovanna Mallucci, Scott Waddell and me). Keep it strong!

This is a fundamental aspect Europe has been getting wrong when discussing structural economic problems. We have dropped the ball on science and innovation. You want to build prosperity? Then a bold approach to funding science from discovery to application is needed.

Come to Hall C on Tuesday, 25 June at 1 pm for the FENS-EJN Awards Lectures by Sara Bizzotto Tobias Hauser and Oscar Marín We will be done even before the opening ceremony! See you in Vienna

Excitatory and inhibitory synapses show a tight subcellular correlation that weakens over development dlvr.it/T8Th0R

Why are human brains so big and slow (to develop)? Illuminating to work with the brilliant Feline Lindhout Madeline Lancaster and Katie Pollard on this perspective on cellular and molecular mechanisms of specializations in human brain development (1/7) nature.com/articles/s4159…

📢Thrilled! My 1st piece of work of my postdoc at @Arlottalab is out nature! This has been a huge co-lead effort with Irene Faravelli👩‍🔬👩‍🔬🤩 Link: nature.com/articles/s4158… Tweetorial 👇🧵

📣We're excited to share our latest review article on the role of epigenetics in the etiology of ASD!  Check it out here: shorturl.at/qMZ7E Don't miss it! 📸 Trends in Molecular Medicine

I am delighted and grateful to Wellcome for granting us a Wellcome Discovery Award, which will enable us to explore the emergence of human cortical circuits over the next eight years @CDN, @CNDD, #synapses, #interneurons, #circuits, #development

Thanks Fernando!

Cortical interneurons learn on the job! Speculated this was true a decade ago! Sherry Wu and Min Dai finally provide evidence! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Inflation greatly reduces the competitiveness of European Research Council (ERC) projects: €2.5M in 2007 is worth €3.6M today. Time to update max budgets? Maria Leptin

Are you interested in the development of the human brain? Funded by Wellcome we are recruiting two postdoctoral researchers (ephys, scRNAseq, molecular biology) to investigate the formation of inhibitory circuits in humans. Please RT!

I am thrilled to share our new manuscript led by GiliEzra and Sílvia F. Henriques dissecting how essential #aminoacids control #gene expression to guide #physiology #behavior and #microbiome towards #homeostasis. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Hungry for more? Here is a little appetizer 1/14

Check out the newest article from Kevin Kelley with Felicity Gore and Omer Revah with a detailed experimental strategy for transplantation of cortical #organoids to study more mature human neurons in an in vivo circuit context 👇

We have 2x Lecturer posts here at Ulster University (= US Assistant Prof) with app deadline 5th Sept 24. Please spread the word! We are particularly keen on people in NeuroAI for CS job: my.corehr.com/pls/coreportal… and in Neuromorphic computing for CE job: my.corehr.com/pls/coreportal…
