Sur Lab

The Sur Lab at MIT is looking for a technical associate to join our team! careers.peopleclick.com/careerscp/clie…

Love this lecture for beginnners by @SurLabMIT and @TheBlackHole_pk! youtube.com/watch?v=kE1cPm…

📢 Introducing Our Speakers We’re excited to hear from Prof. Mriganka Sur, @MIT, on the subject, ‘The basic neuroscience of neurodevelopmental disorders and the discovery of mechanism-based therapeutics’ at #Frommoleculestomind. #neurotwitter

😀A wonderful day here @MIT as scores of friends and alumni of @SurLabMIT gathered to celebrate the incomparable ongoing career, mentorship and leadership of Mriganka Sur. @mitbrainandcog @ScienceMIT #neuroscience #MIT

New in @SfNJournals from @SurLabMIT: Astrocytes play a crucial partnership role with motor cortex neurons as they encode learning of skilled movement tasks. picower.mit.edu/news/astrocyte… @mitbrainandcog @ScienceMIT #neuroscience #MIT @neuro_runnerd @ChloeDelepine

Today's FDA approval of #Trofinetide could bring new, much needed hope to many with #Rettsyndrome and their families. In 2009 @SurLabMIT made the first preclinical showing that IGF-1 could have therapeutic potential. picower.mit.edu/news/3-questio… @mit @mitscience @mitbrainandcog

Congratulations to Kyle Jenks, postdoc in @SurLabMIT, and all the winners for earning a @ScienceMIT Infinite Expansion award! news.mit.edu/2023/school-sc…

We are pleased to announce the successful thesis defense of Dr. Lupe Cruz! Congratulations, @unacerebrita !

The Sur Lab is delighted to be celebrating the successful thesis defense of Dr. Ning Leow! Congratulations, @whatnowning !

🎉Congratulations to Dr. Yi Ning Leow (@whatnowning) on her successful thesis defense today! @SurLabMIT

The brain uses basic calculus to quickly halt fast movements — a surprisingly clever way to control behaviors that need to be more precise than the commands from the brain can be. @KSHartnett reports: quantamagazine.org/the-brain-uses…

See what the Sur Lab has been up to at SfN 2022! #SfN2022

The Sur Lab is pleased to be celebrating the Picower Institute for Learning and Memory's 20th anniversary! Many thanks to all involved for an outstanding symposium @MIT_Picower web.mit.edu/webcast/picowe…

The Sur Laboratory is excited to celebrate with Dr. Nhat Le after his successful thesis defense today! Congratulations, @nhatmle !

New in @eLife: In organoids modeling Rett syndrome, MIT researchers used an advanced form of three-photon microscopy to observe that newborn neurons struggle to migrate properly. picower.mit.edu/news/advanced-… #neurosciencd @ScienceMIT #rettsyndrome

Running to catch the bus? The brain is wired for the rapid calculus needed to bring you to a halt right at the doors before they close, a new @SurLabMIT study in @CellReports suggests. picower.mit.edu/news/sprint-th… #neuroscience @mitbrainandcog @ScienceMIT

Remembering an incredible talk at an incredible @URNeuroscience symposium by the one-and-only Prof. Mriganka Sur @SurLabMIT #URochesterResearch

Thanks to @DrTorahKachur who made this science column for @cbcradio summarizing our recent paper perfectly! @gabidrummond24 @SurLabMIT cbc.ca/listen/live-ra…

Out in @Nature today, our latest effort at understanding norepinephrine spatiotemporal dynamics during learned behavior. Work done with @gabidrummond24 while I was transitioning from the @surlabmit to my new position @CERVO. nature.com/articles/s4158… Thread (1/9):

New in @Nature from @SurLabMIT: Well timed and located releases of noradrenaline within the brain facilitate task execution and encoding reinforcement to improve performance accuracy picower.mit.edu/news/how-brain… @vbprovencher @gabidrummond24 @ScienceMIT @mitbrainandcog #neuroscience
