A paper is out today with x-less Jiaman Dai. This paper took five years in the make. Many thanks to all lab members @ neurosciencethesunlab.org , and neurolabware.org for help with two-photon microscope set-up and training, with @joshtrachtenberg. Thanks @NIMHgov for funding. In this paper Dai and Sun show that two small subsets of responsive primary neurons are modulated differently by TEC learning: sensory neurons become less responsive to whisker stimuli, while contextual neurons gain responsiveness to whisker stimuli. These modulations are reverted by administering a nicotinic receptor antagonist during training, which also disrupts learning performance.
Madison won the Poster Prize!!! Proud beyond words!! ☺️ #SRBR2024 #NPJBTS
Super proud of my lab folk (Madison, Erik, and Pooja) presenting at #SRBR2024 in Puerto Rico
For centuries, the consensus has been that our dreams cause the twitches we make during sleep. What if it’s the other way around? nyer.cm/gljZEPj
