We had a discussion about the presence of our research institute (nin.nl) on X/Twitter in our monthly group-leader meeting, yesterday. I am relieved that we voted to depart. Like many German institutions: tribune.com.pk/story/2521490/…

We did it. We killed neuro twitter and it's resuscitation it's happening somewhere else. Come join us! thetransmitter.org/community/huge…

We are also starting our migration away from Twitter/X to Bluesky. It looks promising! Let's all go!!! bsky.app/profile/willuh…

Happy to see my PhD work published in iScience: "The direct and indirect pathways of the basal ganglia antagonistically influence cortical activity and perceptual decisions". Read it here: doi.org/10.1016/j.isci… Thanks to all who collaborated on this challenging project!

Dopamine world : "Value-driven adaptations of mesolimbic dopamine release are governed by both model-based and model-free mechanisms" is the title of our latest publication spearheaded by PhD student Rhiannon Robke! eneuro.org/content/early/…

Our #vacancy is now also open for #postdoc applications 📢. Looking for a #PhD or postdoc position, where you can be creative, grow and enjoy doing research? Apply now and until July 31st 👇

@LernerLab @TaliaLerner @NUFeinbergMed @Neuroscience_NU Yay!!!

Everyone at #FENS2024, @Flagel_Lab & @HLesscher have flyers announcing our next two EBPS meetings. The first in Banff, Canada - September 2024 The second in Almeria, Spain - September 2025 Join us for these exciting meetings in some truly spectacular locations.

Thank you to everyone who attended the @EurBehavPharm & @EBBS_Science mini-conference today starting #FENS2024. A huge thank you to @RyanLabTCD, @TseDorothyLab, David Dupret, Marloes Henckens, @GazzolaValeria, @ClaMassaccesi @_the_ing, @DerocheVero for presenting.

Led by Satoka Fujimoto and with @RussBEneuro and @HelenMaybergMD our first paper on the effects of deep brain stimulation in the brain. What’s exciting is that we find it induces white matter remodeling in specific tracts. @SinaiBrain biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

And that’s a wrap: #optodbs2024 comes to a close! Mark your 📆: The next one will be June 10-12 2026. This time we saw cutting edge fiber optic guidance, sonogenetics, targeted drug delivery, and of course a lot of closed loop DBS & Optogenetics. What will we see in 2 years? 👏

Today is my last day as director of @NIMHgov. It’s been an absolute pleasure serving @NIH and working alongside so many talented, good-hearted people who come to work every day to transform the understanding and treatment of mental illnesses. nihrecord.nih.gov/2024/05/10/gor…

Opening of #optoDBS 2019 from ⁦@LUSCHERC⁩. Looking forward

Great experience at #optoDBS so far! One of these rare events where preclinical and clinical neuroscientists meet and actually talk!

Fantastic talk by the inventor of temporal interference stimulation Nir Grossmann on the application of the technique on hippocampal stim in healthy subjects and patients. #optodbs2024

Where is language in the brain? Great keynote by @StephForkel redefining how we answer this question using brain connectivity. #connectbrain2024

Fantastic quote still very valid today! If we use words such as „stimulated“, „activated“ or „engaged“ we often did not think enough about what we are even talking about.

I’m very excited to share our latest preprint: ‘Experience-dependent predictions of feedforward and contextual information in mouse visual cortex’ biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
