Renata Batista-Brito

Very excited to share that the Batista-Brito lab recently got a Whitehall Foundation and a NARSAD grant! We are recruiting postdocs interested in studying neonatal cortical development using cutting-edge in vivo strategies. We encourage minorities to apply. Please RT!

The 3 Rs of PGDB team - what a joy!

If you are at SFN do not miss Manal talk tomorrow at 1:15pm titled “Arousal state influence on spontaneous and visually-evoked network activityacross postnatal development” Abstract No.:5808 Session Number:NANO57

@antferrui @denisejcai Congratulations to the whole team! Great work

Such a nice summary figure of our paper 🤩🤩

For more details, check out the preprint! This project was a collaborative effort with many other contributors, including co-first author @soyoun_neurosci, as well as @SeasonQiu, @apeyrache, @BatistaBritoLab and @lukesjulson biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 13/end

Eager to share isoCycle! If interested in neural dynamics across timescales, it might be worth exploring isoCycle: A Deep Network-Based Decoder for Isolating Single Cycles of Neural Oscillations in Spiking Activity github.com/esiabri/isoCyc… Huge thanks @BatistaBritoLab more👇

@bonafide_kasra @hermanymv @HjerlingLeffler @NeuroCellPress @OberstPolina @AMunozManchado @Jennie_L_Close @slinnarsson Congratulations! So happy to see this beautiful story published!

@hermanymv @HjerlingLeffler Our study is now online @NeuroCellPress: authors.elsevier.com/c/1heOA3BtfH5M… We would like to thank all co-authors: Hannah Hochgerner, @OberstPolina, Alexandra Kouznetsova, Jesper Ryge, @AMunozManchado, @Jennie_L_Close, @BatistaBritoLab and @slinnarsson.

ADNF Symposium next week August 30th, 9AM AEST >August 29th, 7PM NY Time with Renata Batista-Brito @BatistaBritoLab, Caroline Smith @CarolineJWSmith, Martin Munz @MartinMunz2 @AusNeuroSoc @ANS_Students @worldwideneuro @ANZSCDB

Check out our latest paper with @matteosaponati, who proposes a way to understand synaptic credit assignment and spike-time-dependent-plasticity based on predictive learning and sequence anticipation

Congratulations to @JacobMRatliff for being one of the poster presentations winner at the GRC Inhibition in the CNS! Jacob you are a rising star ⭐️ Congratulations to all the presenters - - the quality of the posters is outstanding

We are pleased to congratulate @GeoffreyTerral of @EinsteinMed on joining the 2023 cohort of #leonlevyscholars selected for the Leon Levy Scholarships in #Neuroscience, in partnership with the Leon Levy Foundation. 👏 Read more: bit.nyas.org/3N8migH

A terrific meeting organized by @rico_lab and @bartos_marlene

@Spiegel_Lab gave compelling evidence that Hebbian disturbances short term lead to long term homeostatic changes in activity dependent changes. Activity-dependent plasticity comes down to two fundamental mechanisms linking over time. Nice stuff!

@lukesjulson What are you waiting for? Get ready!

Today my 11yo said we have to go to burning man. My 9yo said what’s that? He said, “it’s a giant party in the middle of the desert where thousands of people burn a statue of God.” I said it’s not God, it’s a wooden man. He said: 🙄🙄 DAD, IT'S A METAPHOR 🙄🙄

Very excited to get this work led by @LeenaAIbrahim and Brie Wamsley out in eLife. It does a lovely job showing how Nova2 mediates alternative splicing in somatostatin interneurons. doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…

For those of you who may have missed it, here is a new paper on the surprisingly selective connectivity of cortical somatostatin cells that we just published in @NeuroCellPress ! @JJSherryWU @elaine_sevier authors.elsevier.com/a/1hKi6_KOmxJl…

We're looking for a research assistant for next year. It's an ideal position for a grad who wants a bit of research experience in circuit & system neuro as a bridge to MSc/PhD course applications. It will be very hands-on - patching, lasers etc. Please RT findajob.dwp.gov.uk/details/124936…

Now out @CurrentBiology. Our work using calcium imaging to study visual processing in the octopus brain! cell.com/current-biolog…

@lukesjulson I’m really disappointed as well - is such an interesting project!

Just found out an R01 application I was really excited about isn't going to be funded, and there won't be an opportunity to reapply. This is what science is. You win some, you lose some. I can't say I'm not disappointed, but life goes on

@EinsteinMed @NYASciences @GeoffreyTerral @EinsteinPhD @epa_einstein @NeuroMonteEinst Great job Geoffrey!

Congratulations to postdoc Geoffrey Terral, named a Leon Levy Scholar in #Neuroscience by @nyasciences and the Leon Levy Foundation! Dr. Terral was honored for his research on the morphology and connectivity of inhibitory neurons. More: bit.ly/42As4xi #leonlevyscholars
