Excited to share our recent review, which highlights algorithmic and implementational degeneracy in studies of cognition: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Thrilled to share our new paper, which shows that the relative timing of cholinergic and dopamine release dynamically gates whether dopamine acts as an RPE for in vivo plasticity and reinforcement learning. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Grateful to receive a ✨K99/R00✨ after much uncertainty! Still worried about scientific funding and the future of our work. Excited to reveal how estrogen modulates neuromodulator and neural dynamics, de novo protein synthesis, and temporal discounting with a novel task the rats are already crushing.

📢📢 My lab at @utah.edu is officially open and I'm RECRUITING — especially techs/specialists and postdocs! Our research focuses on the neurobiology of interoception and learning & memory using tools from systems/comp neuro. Please share! 🧠🏔️🏜️ Apply/more info: zimmerman-lab.org#positions

all these emails between academics and Epstein are more testimony of what women in academia have to contend with 😡

Our lab will be boycotting biotech vendors that have contracts with ICE (e.g., Fisher, Agilent), and telling them why. If you google “vendorname usa spending”, you can see purchases for specific depts including ICE on usaspending.gov. Please talk to your labs and email your vendors!

Excited to share latest study from the lab by an amazing RA, Dylan Flink. We solved a small (important) puzzle while in the trenches of a larger (wavy 🌊) puzzle. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... 🧵...

Spread the word: I'm looking to hire a postdoc to explore the concept of attention (as studied in psych/neuro, not the transformer mechanism) in large Vision-Language Models. More details here: lindsay-lab.github.io/2025/12/08/p... #MLSky #neurojobs #compneuro

Thank you for the great summary, @thetransmitter.bsky.social, and the shout-outs from scientists we admire. There is so much we don’t know about how sex hormones modulate behavior and we’ll keep exploring!

I am recruiting graduate students for the experimental side of my lab @mcgill.ca for admission in Fall 2026! Get in touch if you're interested in how brain circuits implement distributed computation, including dopamine-based distributed RL and probabilistic representations.

As the Neuroscience 2025 meeting comes to a close, it's time for us to think about the future. Do you want to help us shape neuroscience research and future @sfn.org meetings? Consider nominating yourself or colleagues: www.sfn.org/about/volunt...

1/3 New Nature Neuroscience paper on estrogen & dopamine RPEs. Female rats in high-estradiol phase (proestrus) show stronger trial-by-trial adjustment of response vigor in a RL task: they start the next trial faster after better rewards. www.nature.com/articles/s41... #RewardSignals #neuroskyence

Who wore it better? Our new paper shows that rat OFC supports Bayesian inference of hidden states! With neural correlates of inferred state transitions at the level of single neurons and population-level latent factors. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Check out our posters at #SfN25 this Saturday! @aqperkins.bsky.social @adiraj95.bsky.social @goldenneurons.bsky.social

Thrilled to share our new paper, out now in @natneuro.nature.com, uncovering how estradiol, the most potent estrogen, modulates reinforcement learning and reward prediction errors across biological levels. www.nature.com/articles/s41... #blueprint 1/7

Rat-mon y Cajal, our lab mascot, is a pro at our task because he went to kindergarten first. His nemesis, Le Chat GPT, just copied off everyone else’s homework. www.nature.com/articles/s42...

Calling all Neuroscience postdocs! 🧠 Share your research through SPiNES (Seminars from Postdocs in Neuroscience: Extramural Series) from the NYUGSoM Department of Neuroscience. Applications close 08/20/25. Apply today! 👉 nyumc.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_... #Neuroscience #Postdoc #ResearchOpportunity

During Q&A, whenever someone asks a question about our "mice."

THIS is outrageous and scary! RFK making his own journal that appears to be associated with a medical society.There is no such thing as the Academy of Public Health! They can use this to make false claims in medicine and science, including for vaccines. These are not peer reviewed nor scientific!

Join our brand-new lab at UConn studying flexible sensory processing in mice! We're hiring a full-time lab tech - a great fit for recent grads looking to get experience with systems and behavioral neuroscience research. Apply here: jobs.hr.uconn.edu/cw/en-us/job...

Please repost! We’re trying hard to sort out rumors from truth + would like to hear from anyone affected by the new federal orders + NIH pause. Patients, scientists, health equity researchers: please contact us below. We won’t share anything without your permission. www.statnews.com/2025/01/25/t...

Question for all you blueskyers (is that the equivalent of tweeps?). Can someone point me to a book that has a brooding non-male protagonist. Brooding heros tend to be my favorite to read about - think Batman or Edmond Dantes - but thinking about it, I'm wondering if only men are written this way.

We are recruiting a postdoc! Have expertise in RNA biology and want to apply it to neuro and neurodev disorders? Then apply 👇🏼 📌 $73,588 💰 📌 access to postdoc housing 🏠 📌 Support for internationals 🌍 📌 Awesome view 😅 🙏 RT labs.icahn.mssm.edu/derubeislab/...

NIH funding generated $2.46 for every $1 funded in 2023. Important info for scientific advocacy in the years ahead- science is a quantifiable investment, not just a cost. H/t to @nicolecrust.bsky.social for sharing! #AcademicSky #PsychSciSky #NeuroSkyence www.fiercebiotech.com/research/rep...

Registration for #COSYNE2025 is now open! www.cosyne.org/registration #neuroscience #NeuroAI

Excited to be here in this quest for simpler times! Here’s where you can find what I’ve been working on the last five years: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
