The barccsyn.org community in Barcelona is organizing a nice FENS Satellite (Sun 5.07). Check the great speakers that will present both experimental and modeling work. And remember: you can bring your poster. If you want to (finally!) understand how the brain works 🥸, come and find out. #FENS2026

A few years ago we dreamed about having an automated system in which our animals could live in and train on any behavioral task 24/7 w/o any human intervention. Today, we are very happy to share the Training Village (TV), an open system that can be used to train mice/rats in almost any task (1/4).

🚨Excited to share my first @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social🚨 with the amazing Smith lab, @jbarbosa.org and Albert Compte who made this work possible. We show that 🐒prefrontal hemispheres combine redundancy (for precision) & weak connections (for capacity) for supporting spatial working memory (WM). 1/🧵

Madrid: Thousands demostrating against the Israeli team’s participation in Spain’s cycling ride They have torn down the barriers and the stage has been suspended The Genocide Convention obligates to prevent and punish The states are not doing it, the people are demanding it

These horrible pics taken by a Spanish physician in Jan Yunis document well many of the victims of the masacres perpetrated by the IDF over just three months in Gaza. Until when will this craziness continue? When will Israelis react to the suffering of the children in Gaza? issuu.com/prisarevista...

📣📣 PhD Position opening 📣📣 We are looking for candidates for a 4 year PhD position in the Brain Circuits and Behavior Lab to investigate the circuit mechanisms of working memory (please RT).

youtu.be/fgsK7noLGOM?... Heartbreaking. Maddening. How many more of these testimonies we need to hear before we believe this conflict has all the elements of a genocide?

Juristas por Palestina exige al Estado español que abandone la “pasividad cómplice” ante el genocidio en Gaza @juristasxpalestina.bsky.social www.eldiario.es/politica/jur...

This is very brave! Thanks Avner Wishnitzer for speaking up. I wonder what your colleagues, our colleagues, in Israeli academic institutions think about this. "Ask about Gaza, speak about Gaza, oppose the killing. Choose life." www.pressenza.com/2025/07/one-...

www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... I'm ashamed by the response of the European leaders. Who has been the agressor here? why is this such a difficult question to answer?

www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m... When is this massacre going to stop? What else has to happen for the international community to take action? And then they say they use human shields. This is unbearable.

This looks incredibly cool!

Excited to announce multiple #PhD & #Postdoc positions opening in my lab over the next three years as part of the #ERC Starting grant DIVERSE! Reposts appreciated 😊 #neuroscience #neuroskyence

Memorable concierto de @muguruzafm.bsky.social en Madrid, 15.000 personas unidas por la música y el compromiso “Free Palestine” ⤵️

Our Barcelona-based summer school, BAMB! (bambschool.org) just opened applications! Come join us: 15-24th July, to learn how to model behavioral data using RL, Bayesian, latent variable models, RNNs, DDMs & more! #BAMB2025

Fabulous #FKNE meeting in Lithuania last week - shaping the future of #neuroscience with visionary, challenging and community building frontier researchers! @fkne-scholars.bsky.social @fens.org @kavlifoundation.bsky.social

Really happy to see this is out. 👏👏 Great team effort, from a couple of generations from 2 labs. I love how this fine understanding of the motor responses was possible thanks to some of our previous work carefully dissecting other aspects of the task (i.e. history effects and RTs). More to come! 🎉
