More with less: @UCSanDiego scientists in @ucsdbiosciences and @UCSDPhySci have proposed a solution for how flies use a simple but efficient method to recognize odors. The answer lies at the edges of their sensory systems. today.ucsd.edu/story/detectin… @yahdef @SuLabUCSD @PuriPalka

The array of olfactory receptor neurons in flies is highly structured. Our collaborator Chih-Ying Su @SuLabUCSD showed previously that receptors are electrically coupled, a coupling that affects animal behavior. nature.com/articles/natur… 2/

Building the FlyWire #connectome from the FAFB brain was a massive team effort. But neuroscientists need to find their favourite neurons in this huge dataset. We report an indexed parts list, systematically annotating all 127k neurons (Schlegel et al biorxiv.org/content/10.110…) 1/7

Today the lab was greeted by innocuous appearing white adapters plugged in lab bays and offices. We inquired and learned the university is monitoring 'occupancy', i.e. when we are/are not in. Be on the lookout! Big brother is watching!👀

@yahdef @PuriPalka @UCSanDiego So well-deserved. Congratulations @PuriPalka!

Congratulations to Palka @PuriPalka for receiving the @UCSanDiego GPSA Interdisciplinary Research Award! Pictured with Palka are Chih-Ying @SuLabUCSD and I looking and feeling very proud.

applications are due TOMORROW! MARCH 15TH! come spend the summer at cshl and learn everything about drosophila neurobiology! we've got an aamzing slate planned with a cavalcade of star faculty! don't miss out. RT and DM me with any q's! meetings.cshl.edu/courses.aspx?c…

Remarkable! Ricca’s factors as mobile proteinaceous effectors of electrical signaling cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

[1/11] @DavidTadres and I are excited to share new research doi.org/10.1126/sciadv… where we show that olfactory sensory neurons undergo silencing due to depolarization block at ethologically relevant odor concentrations. #olfaction #chemosensation #behavior

We're hiring! (and we have interesting windows) Come join us! Tenure track assistant professor in Neurobiology, open to all kinds of applicants 🪰🕊️🦋🐁🐭🤸‍♂️🪱🐒🐟🦐🦜🐞🦉🐦 @NUneurobio neurobiology.northwestern.edu/people/faculty…

i still don't believe something until i can hold it in my hand (i'm a deeply distrusting individual). but our issue of @Dev_Cell with @lucas__restrepo's gamma secretase paper is finally here! hard copies! it's so pretty and i'm so proud of the authors and the artist @GAL4science!

Happy to share our newest work that is published online in @NeuroCellPress today! cell.com/neuron/fulltex… Great teamwork by @JungWooYang2 , Pablo Serrano, and @Xuming_Yin during the tough covid time. Also thanks to @Xiaochen_Sun_ and Yingxi Lin for sharing the NRAM virus with us!
