"… the next generation of robots designed to operate around people need to have accurate touch and proprioception in order to safely and successfully function," writes Aude G. Billard in a new #ScienceExpertVoices article. scim.ag/4lEs4Gb

🚨‼️Preprint Alert‼️🚨 Hot off the press! We report a dual role for TREM2 following PNI; both beneficial for axon regeneration and detrimental to motoneuron preservation. Very glad to see the bulk of my dissertation work finally out! @emoryalvarezlab biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Happy to present fresh results on multilayer (deep) spiking networks at the spiking network workshop: snufa.net/2024/. It is an effort to better understand computations in sensory pathways. Collaboration with @ajemanuel , supervised by Prof. Panzeri. Free online workshop!

For the past 10 days I visited the lab of @ajemanuel to develop our project on modeling and understanding computations and activity in the somatosensory system responsible for fine touch. I also trained a bit my low threshold mechanoreceptors (see photo)😀

This paper is now published in Cell Reports! Our study investigates how the sugar circuit diverges into different pathways that mediate different behaviors. The revision has a ton of new data and circuit simulations (thanks to the model by @Philip_Shiu!) cell.com/cell-reports/f…

Just in time for #cshldros23, we have a new preprint on how sweet taste elicits different behavioral responses. Are different behaviors coordinately regulated? At what point does the sweet-sensing circuit diverge into different behavioral pathways? biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
