Chen-Lab @ BU

Pushing into new areas! Hiring post-docs studying individuality, perception, abstraction, 'hardwired' plasticity with vertically integrated methods (voltage imaging/transcriptomics/connectomics/automated behavior). All backgrounds welcomed! Pls retweet. chen-lab.org

Spotlight on Single-Cell Genomics! We (@ozgungokce , @bayraktar_lab, @naomi_habib, Genevieve Konopka, @LiddelowSA , and @LabNowakowski) collaborating with top neuroscientists to explore optimizing these technologies: 🔗 nature.com/neuro/volumes/…

Another exciting day here in Baltimore, and the list of BU talks and posters is still growing! Don't forget to stop by booth #500 to connect with us after you hear what we've been up to. @JohnAWhitePhD @DrMTeplensky @hadi_nia @xuehan @ChenLabNeuro @BioDesignCenter

@AlannaCarey3, a student in Professor Jerry Chen's lab (@ChenLabNeuro), recently was granted the NIH D-SPAN award! Alanna’s dissertation aims to investigate how neuronal cell types' properties vary to produce learning differences among individuals. neuroscienceblueprint.nih.gov/training/d-spa…

Congratulations to @BU_Biology PhD student Alanna Carey @AlannaCarey3 on her NIH Blueprint and BRAIN Initiative D-SPAN F99 Award! Keep an eye out for the exciting research that she is working on. Very well deserved! bu.edu/biology/2024/0…

Congratulations to @eelreggit Caroline Mclachlan @AlannaCarey3 @osung0209 @RNogueiraNeuro @StefanoFusi2 on the amazing science!

Happy to announce that our first paper on perirhinal cortex is now published! Click on the link to check it out. nature.com/articles/s4146…

Fabulous seminar by Professor Jerry Chen (Boston University) at @OxfordDPAG on genes involved in learning and cortical plasticity/rigidity - fascinating individual differences in who learns and who doesn't. Many thanks, @ChenLabNeuro!

Come check out posters from our lab, Tuesday at #SfN23 !

New @Columbia_NTC online meeting on Neuronal Integration. Monday December 4th 11am-4pm EST. Great speakers. Free registration: ntc.columbia.edu/ni2023/

Boston University is hiring a tenure-track position in Neuroethology! Looking for individuals investigating fundamental questions in neuroscience using diverse model organisms. Deadline Oct 15. Please repost! @BU_Biology @buCSNneuro academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/25231

Very excited for our work to be officially out! We shed insight into how multiple key neurotransmitters - dopamine, acetylcholine and glutamate - interact during decision making! nature.com/articles/s4158…

A News & Views from @LinTianPhD highlights three studies describing new voltage sensors. nature.com/articles/s4159…

SpikeyGi and SpikeyGi2 from the labs of @ChenLabNeuro and @vpieribone: nature.com/articles/s4159…

Pleased to highlight 3 exciting new papers in our recently released News & Views article 💡 🧠 Phenomenal work by @ChenLabNeuro, @MichaelLinLab & @AdamEzraCohen! Read the full article here ⬇️ rdcu.be/dgwoW

Developed at @BU_NPC, an approach to imaging electrical activity deep in the brain makes neurological studies more effective and less invasive, writes @jmurphoton. #LaserFocusWorld #Photonics #Neuroscience #BrainScience laserfocusworld.com/bio-life-scien…

Congratulations to everyone involved. Stay tuned for more! 5/5

We discovered a "predictive map" of task behavior that emerges through stimulus-feature learning, stimulus-reward learning, and linking expected and experienced outcomes. 4/5

Our first study in Perirhinal Cortex! with @eelreggit Caroline Mclachlan @AlannaCarey3 @osung0209 @RNogueiraNeuro @StefanoFusi2 and others. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 1/5
