Now out after peer review...congrats Emmie et al! cell.com/cell-reports-m…

So after a year of working on it and many, many revisions here is my lab's take on the wonders of Layer 1! A bit shout out to @Su_hang_ @LeenaAIbrahim who both did the heavy lifting in putting this piece together! Let us know what you think! cell.com/neuron/fulltex…

Happy to share our recent paper looking at evolutionary conservation of the hippocampal mossy fiber synapse. We show that the functional and structural properties of this synapses are remarkably conserved from rodents to humans. authors.elsevier.com/c/1hr2N3BtfH5M…

If you are interested in selectively targeting dentate granule cells with a single AAV vector, please enjoy our new preprint! biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…

1. I’m excited to share our new work, conducted with my amazing mentor and advisor @KarlDeisseroth, on the synaptic basis of behavioral timescale plasticity. Online today @CellPressNews: cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

Fully funded PhD position to study PFC circuits and social behaviour in mouse models of Autism with myself and @DrEmmaCahill @BristolNeurosci. DEADLINE 31st October Please RT. jobs.ac.uk/job/CTU599/phd…

Check out our new biorxiv paper led by @JJSherryWU and @ekfishy targeting the breadth of cortical somatostatin cells and showing their remarkably selective circuitry. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excited to share our review exploring sleep's role in adolescent brain development (focusing on the PFC) and how this impacts adolescent mental health. Big thanks to Luisa and Michele @bsrlaboratory and Matt Jones @BristolNeurosci. doi.org/10.1016/j.pneu…

*New paper* on ripple-selective GABAergic projection cells led by Gergely Szabo in @NeuroCellPress . Thanks to all who contributed incl. @J_S_Farrell @BarnaDudok @JDimidschstein and others. pdf here>cell.com/neuron/pdfExte…

Review with @fpolleux on the mechanisms underlying evolution of connectivity in the human cortex as part of the Horizons in Neural Circuits research topic: doi.org/10.3389/fncir.… Hopefully a good read or at least a worthy addition to the growing ‘must-find-time-to-read’ list.

Our paper is out! We show how the human-specific modifier SRGAP2C alters the structure and function of cortical circuits and improves behavioral performance. doi.org/10.1038/s41586…

Happy to share our new TINS review with @P_Anastasiades discussing recent work on projection neurons, interneurons, and their wiring in local and long-range circuits of the rodent medial prefrontal cortex: authors.elsevier.com/a/1d1OObotpuWuI

Still time to apply for funded PhD position with Paul Chadderton and myself! Please RT findaphd.com/phds/project/c…

Happy to share our new eLife paper, showing how the hippocampus engages CCK+ interneurons to evoke inhibition in the prefrontal cortex, with endocannabinoid modulation at only a sub-population of L5 pyramidal cells: @theXL92 @JDimidschstein @GordFishell elifesciences.org/articles/55267

Fully Funded PhD position via @SWBio_DTP to work with Paul Chadderton and myself @BristolUni. Please RT and get in touch if you would like to discuss the project further. Applicants not called Paul are strongly encouraged to apply..... findaphd.com/phds/project/c…

Very excited to share the second major piece of my postdoc work published today in @NeuroCellPress! We used random access 2p imaging and post hoc immuno to record simultaneously hundreds of molecularly identified interneurons in CA1. 1/2 cell.com/neuron/fulltex…
