1/ 🚨 New preprint! 🚨 Excited and proud (& a little nervous 😅) to share our latest work on the importance of #theta-timescale spiking during #locomotion in #learning. If you care about how organisms learn, buckle up. 🧵👇 📄 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... 💻 code + data 🔗 below 🤩 #neuroskyence

Wonderful piece by @megancarey.bsky.social on how @network-alba.bsky.social is tackling inequities in (neuro)science and building more inclusive research communities! ✨ #DEI #DiversityInScience #DiversityInSTEM #neuroscience #cognitivescience #neuroskyence #academia

We are super excited about this news!!! 🤩 #ERCAdG

I like how the ambiguity of which side the labels refer to perfectly mirrors each viewpoint

Honored that a piece I wrote made it to NYTimes. It’s about how my mom’s stroke changed my connection to time, science, and nature. What a privilege to honor my mom in Modern Love. Below is a gift link. Let me know your thoughts 🙏🏼 www.nytimes.com/2024/12/20/s...

Made a starter pack for researchers who are actively working on or have an interest in the cerebellum. DM me to be added or reply to this thread! 🧠🤏🏻 go.bsky.app/7X4ekSH #neuroscience #neuroskyence #cerebellum #neuroimaging #dbs #fmri

petition to change the word describing ChatGPT's mistakes from 'hallucinations' to 'confabulations' A hallucination is a false subjective sensory experience. ChatGPT doesn't have experiences! It's just making up plausible-sounding bs, covering knowledge gaps. That's confabulation

Don't miss @NTatianaSilva talking about her exciting recent work on cerebellar memory consolidation. 🧠 Today @ 16h Lisbon / 11am Baltimore. Preprint here: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

I thought we all agreed the first name-only badges were evil? 😈 #SfN2024

New lab preprint! Tatiana Silva & Inês Ribeiro found that in 🐭, locomotor activity 🏃‍♀️ shifts the critical temporal window for memory consolidation (from after to WITHIN training sessions) & accelerates memory transfer from 🧠 cerebellar cortex ➡️ nucleus doi.org/10.1101/2024...

Bom dia #cosyne24 Please remember to nominate your colleagues for @SfNtweets Swartz Prize in Theoretical & Computational Neuroscience 🏆 Nomination window is open - this is a great time to chat with others & coordinate nomination letters! www.sfn.org/careers/awar...

I wrote a few thousand words about the cerebellum… check it out if you’d like to learn more about “the little brain” authors.elsevier.com/a/1iOZX3QW8S... #neuroscience #neuroskyence

Happy to share our new paper, in which Catarina Albergaria, Daniela Carulli, & Robin Broersen present convergent optogenetic, anatomical & physiological evidence for 'Synaptic mechanisms for associative learning in the cerebellar nuclei,' now in Nature Communications www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Depressing, yes. Surprising? Not so much. This is precisely why the #ALBADeclaration focused so heavily on workplace culture:

It was fun chatting with @carlzimmer.bsky.social about the new papers out today in Science journals - a success story for large scale, international collaborative science!
