So happy to see this work out! We studied when brain connectomes can be used to accurately predict neural activity, and when they can't. Happy to chat more about it, please do reach out if interested. nature.com/articles/s4159…

Chromostereopsis and stereokinetic effect

Looks impressive 👀🧠 nature.com/articles/s4159…

How does the brain balance learning new things without overwriting what it already knows? Our new paper tackles this long-standing stability–plasticity dilemma during active navigation. With @Adrinnenberg from the @KarlDeisseroth lab. (1/8) doi.org/10.1101/2025.1… @lisa_giocomo

Thrilled to share our latest work showing spatially segregated Ca2+ signals of NMDAR and mGluR5 have opposing effects to maintain synapse homeostasis, with implications towards rapid antidepressant action (1/3) pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Our politics MUST become this again, if we are to survive as a country...

Vaccines are not magic. None are perfect. Some work better than others. Some have serious and occasionally lethal side effects. We don’t understand the downsides of vaccines perfectly. Not everyone needs every vaccine. Some are pushed for profit. The regulatory system around them is flawed and sometimes corrupt. And still … VACCINES ARE ONE OF HUMANITIES GREATEST INVENTIONS.

ICYMI: Good news! The House rejected the proposed 40% NIH funding cut. The bill released has NIH funded at $48 billion, almost identical to the Senate’s number of $48.7 billion.

Taxpayers: you reap enormous rewards from your modest investment in scientific research. American science is in grave peril. nytimes.com/2025/08/24/opi…

I'm Jewish. I got my PhD in neuroscience from Columbia in 2014. The biomedical research isn't even on the same campus as the protests. The Joint Task Force to Combat "anti-Semitism" will go down in infamy alongside HUAC. It makes me sick.

NIH funding grows the economy while saving lives!!! First Do No Harm!!! NIH Grants Fueled $95 Billion In FY 2024 Economic Activity, Finds New Report via @forbes forbes.com/sites/michaelt…

Also confirmed this from several sources. The T32 that supported my post-residency work at Columbia is now…gone. These illegal cuts will have a devastating impact on the development of new treatments #MedX #MedTwitter

As far as I can tell, Khalil has still not been charged & his attorney/family still don’t know where he is. Any Jew who thinks this is going to start & stop with a few Palestinian activists is fooling themself. Our community is not an excuse to upend democracy & the rule of law.

LISTEN TO EVERY WORD. YES IT IS 12 MIN BUT HE SPEAKS THE TRUTH

Measles is surging in Texas, with the vast number of cases among unvaccinated people & kids—124 cases & 1 child dead. Now, @US_FDA has cancelled a meeting of experts to plan for next year’s flu vaccine. This Admin’s silence on the importance of vaccines is deafening, and—tragically—people will die because of it.
