ViDA Conference

ViDA will promote dopamine-related publications and preprints on our social media starting today. Please @ us in your tweet posts or just DM us a link to the press release tweet to help us find DA publications online.

Went to the ceramics studio today and was surprised by a photo of moi. Also notice the consistency in outfit lol: the @VidaConference hat is my faithful ceramics companion 😂

Book the day! The 2nd SWEBAGS basal ganglia conference will be next November 30th, 2022. The registration is already open!! If you want to present your research either orally or as a poster, the abstract submission is open until September 30th, 2022. conference2022.swebags.ebrains.se

We have a shiny new Twitter account for team tweets from our Aligning Science Across Parkinson’s research collaboration - do follow us! 🤗 @CraggASAP 🤗 #OpenScience #collaboration #Parkinsons #dopamine @ASAP_Research @MRCBNDU @meletislab @StephCragg @MarkHowe72 @WadeMartinsLab

We are almost ready, to introduce our rare children to the world of #dopaminomaniacs. Thanks to the @DopamineSociety the @VidaConference and to the families that are supporting our work @SFCFoundtn @CureSanfilippoF #sanfilippofighters @Telethonitalia @CNRsocial_

Single-cell and spatial transcriptomics of #dopamine neurons from human substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) reveals 10 subtypes, one of which is selectively lost in #Parkinson's disease New from @tkam80 @abdul_squared @macosko and colleagues nature.com/articles/s4159…

Very excited to share our new preprint! Using whole-cell patch-clamp in awake mice, we reveal that sensory responses in the dorsolateral striatum are modulated by motor activity in a dopamine-dependent manner. @RobertodelaTor, Maya Ketzef, @SilberbergGilad biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

#eNeuro: @merridiesel, Dejeux, ​@mattjwanat @UTSA examined how male & female rats responded during a Pavlovian conditioning task. The findings highlight sex differences in behavioral responding & dopamine release throughout Pavlovian learning. eneuro.org/lookup/DOI/10.…

Here's an updated version of our latest thoughts on dopamine. More data, more analyses, more words, same spirit. Will you check it out and let me know what you think? biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

New dopamine story from our lab! @TheCalipariLab. We showed that accumbal dopamine's role in fear and safety learning cannot be explained by Reward Prediction Error (RPE) hypothesis and it is in line with a "Perceived Saliency" signal. 🧵👇 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Immensely happy and grateful to share my paper just published in @CellReports with @NicTritsch! Take a look 👇🏼 to meet the sneaky dopamine neurons: Not only they steal GABA, but also unconventionally release it!!! 🥷🏻 cell.com/cell-reports/f…

I am so, so pleased that this work is now out in @npp_journal! Thanks to my co-authors for all of their hard work, and to our reviewers for their insightful comments. You can read our work on how NAcC D1Rs shape transitions to reward-seeking action here: nature.com/articles/s4138…

If you are interested in #dopamine, you may be excited to explore the @VidaConference youtube channel: youtube.com/channel/UCI5et… So many interesting talks from innovators in the field. Here is the program of 2021, but 2020 is also online.

@HowardDopamine ❤️

For some reason I am really appreciative of @VidaConference this week. A virtual conference with style and class, well worth the cost of admission

@SantiUribeC ❤️

Feeling real nostalgic for @VidaConference at the moment... I know the scale is completely different for #SfN21, but the environment that was cultivated at #ViDA despite virtual limitations is really shining through at the moment. A big retrospective props to the organizers.

What can artificial intelligence teach us about how the brain uses dopamine to learn? That was the premise during this fun panel between Matt Botvinick, @ArminLak, @IlanaWitten, @criticalneuro, and Ashok Litwin-Kumar for the @VidaConference braininspired.co/podcast/vida-2…

Check out our very own @mohebial and Ben Engelhard talk about dopamine and the creation of ViDA!

My talk at @VidaConference is now available online. Please check it out if you are interested in dopamine transduction and motivation! Many thanks to the wonderful organizers for making the event happen. youtu.be/2K5d1j3Gg04
