New from the lab! Tirzah Kreisel found that astrocytic activation completely corrects memory in Alzheimer's mice, via neuronal activity and plasticity enhancement, and increased Aβ swallowing by astrocytes. biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… Let the war end and the hostages return 🎗️🤞🎗️

Yesterday, we had the immense pleasure of celebrating neuroscience as we awarded Professors @HSompolinsky, Terrence Sejnowski, and Larry Abbott with #TheBrainPrize2024 medals for their pioneering contributions to the fields of computational and theoretical neuroscience. Thank you to all who attended, and a special thank you to HM The King of Denmark, the Danish Minister for Higher Education and Science @christinaegelun, @lundbeckfonden, and the chair of our selection committee, Richard Morris.


Have you ever looked at traces from an extracellular recording and wondered what kind of neurons you are recording from? Five labs across three continents working with two species joined forces to solve this decades-old problem in systems neuroscience. 🧵



(3/3) Check out our bioRxiv manuscript for all the juicy details: doi.org/10.1101/2023.0…. And hey, we're thrilled to share these cutting-edge NE sensors with the research community! 🎁💪 #GRABSensors #norepinephrine

Thrilled to share my PhD work, out in @nature today. @fisekmehmet & I developed an all-optical approach to study long-range connectivity across brain areas. Upshot: visual feedback is spatially organized & nonlinearly integrated in V1 apical dendrites. nature.com/articles/s4158…
