Fully funded #FindAPhD! We'll be studying neurobiology of motivation in mice hunting crickets, using a combination of genetic manipulations, behaviour and in vivo ephys. Co-suprvised by the amazing @agonru.bsky.social and Gareth Arnott at QUB. #Neuroskyence Pls share www.gla.ac.uk/postgraduate...

There's a very cool Buzsaki #neuroskyence paper out in Science this week, looking at hippocampal spatial information encoding by multiple interneuron subtypes in parallel. The brilliant @agonru.bsky.social and I wrote a wee perspective to go alongside it: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

This month’s "Launch" newsletter features an essay by Sheena Josselyn on the importance of reading (but not too much), Q&As with @agonru.bsky.social and @drewkesner.bsky.social about their new labs, the latest job openings and more. Subscribe to receive the newsletter each month: bit.ly/4luI2mJ

In this month’s “Liftoff,” ‪ @agonru.bsky.social talks about the importance of taking care of the little things, and Andrew Kesner says that the real key to success lies in your collaborator community. By @franciscorr25.bsky.social #neuroskyence www.thetransmitter.org/liftoff-new-...

🚨Funded PhD studentship co-supervised by me and @matthewwself.bsky.social. Using neuropixels, behaviour, viral tracing and optogenetics you’ll study how visual areas enhance target representations vs background to support goal-oriented actions. eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com?url=https%3A...

Forelimb movement control at the basal ganglia - brainstem interface! Happy to finally share this work from me and @harsh-kanodia.bsky.social with Silvia Arber! @biozentrum.unibas.ch @fmiscience.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Hello #AcademicSky, particularly those in the UK! I have been tasked with coming up with a workload model that accounts for the various things we do in research as well as teaching. Do you work at an insitution that does workloading particularly well? Or badly? Fancy chatting? Please repost.

📢 We have FIVE open-ended positions available and are looking for people who are committed to both excellence in research and excellence in teaching in cognitive Neuroscience and psychology on our RT track 🔥 #AcademicSky #PsychSciSky

📢 🚨 Postdoc Opportunity 📢 🚨 Join us at @lmumuenchen.bsky.social to study how neural circuits 🧠 drive adaptive behavior. The lab uses state-of-the-art neuroscience technologies and offers a supportive environment 🤗! ⏳ Deadline: 15. April 2025 Learn more and apply: www.fens.org/careers/job-...

Should you stick to your goal, try something else, or give up? Your median raphe nucleus in the brainstem knows and will decide for you 😉. First foray of my lab into foraging, behavioural strategies and exploration. Amazing work from the one and only Mehran Ahmadlou: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I am very proud to announce that my PhD paper finally came out in Cell! In this *very* collaborative study, we develop and release a deep-learning approach to predict neuron type identity from their electrical signature. doi.org/10.1016/j.ce... 1/16 🧵

Do a PhD in Neurobiology at SISSA! 4years paid scholarship in a beautiful place, from molecular, cellular to behaviour and systems neuro. Applications until March 13 through the portal - open to all nationalities www.sissa.it/bandi/ammiss.... Check here too: www.sissa.it/research/neu... #neurojobs

🚨fully-funded PhD position🚨 to study cognitive effects of neuroinflammation using neuropixels and behaviour in mice 🐁 Deadline 12 Jan 2025 www.gla.ac.uk/colleges/mvl... Contact for more info: [email protected]

Is neuroscience research really working to understand the human brain? Or do we get lost in mouse cognition? I’ve asked myself this a lot since starting to work with human tissue. Our first Jonas Lab foray into untangling human hippocampal circuits is now online! www.cell.com/cell/fulltex... 1/a few
