We’re excited to share ALL-GCL: a large-scale dataset of 2P Ca²⁺ imaging from 80,000+ cells in the mouse retinal ganglion cell layer, collected over 9 years. Includes rich metadata, shared stimuli & cell-type assignments designed for type-specific analyses, modeling, and ML. 📄: tinyurl.com/ymn53frf

Very excited to present our work tonight @NeurIPS. You will find me in the Exhibit Hall C,D,E #2014 4:30 p.m. PST — 7:30 p.m. PST!

Eine neue Software ermöglicht Gehirnsimulationen, die sowohl detailliert die Prozesse im Gehirn imitieren als auch anspruchsvolle kognitive Aufgaben lösen können. Entwickelt wurde das Programm von einem Forschungsteam am Exzellenzcluster @ ml4science.bsky.social der Universität Tübingen.

The state of our brain shapes what we see. @dgonschorek.bsky.social & @teuler.bsky.social explore a @plosbiology.org study showing that #brain state-dependent release of #histamine modulates the very first stage of #vision – the #retina 🧪 Paper: plos.io/49K0Qv8 Primer: plos.io/3LupFkL

Thrilled to share this work, long time in the making! Carried through creatively by @siddjakes.bsky.social after initial design & piloting by @trackingskills.bsky.social, with help from @trackingactions.bsky.social. Modeling in collaboration with Massimo Vergassola & Nicola Rigolli.

Strengthening European Ties: Institut de la Vision in Paris visits the IOR in Tübingen. This meeting was the first of its kind between the 2 internationally renowned institutes in vision and ophthalmology. @unituebingen.bsky.social @tueneurocampus.bsky.social www.eye-tuebingen.de?tx_news_pi1%...

If you submitted a paper to #ICML2025 and want to know how well your score compares overall, here is a good resource to keep track of your chances of getting it accepted this year. Fingers crossed for everyone! papercopilot.com/statistics/i...

Seeking input: A standardized nomenclature for the rods and cones of the vertebrate retina A number of us have been working on a proposal to bring various disconnected naming systems for the vertebrate rods and cones across species into alignment. The basic proposal looks like this:

The results in a publication of an important scientific collaboration between IOR in Tübingen and the IdV in Paris! With the first detailed analysis of the modulatory effects of nitric oxide on retinal ganglion cells. @unituebingen.bsky.social @tueneurocampus.bsky.social 👉 doi.org/10.7554/eLif...

I've added a new summary to the top of the Kickstarter, thanks to the advice of the excellent @matthewkressel.net. I think what I'm seeing right now is that I may need to clarify the importance of what's been happening in neuroscience. Refining the message! www.kickstarter.com/projects/454...

Our paper on how the neuromodulator nitric oxide modulates a subset of mouse retinal ganglion cells is finally published in @elife.bsky.social doi.org/10.7554/eLif... Great work by @dgonschorek.bsky.social together with the lab of @oliviermarre.bsky.social and @matigoldin.bsky.social, ...
