Congratulations to Urs Lucas Bohm, junior leader a @ipnp.bsky.social, for his latest achievement: he is recipient of the ATIP-Avenir award for his work on spinal cord network contribution to motor behaviors, using voltage imaging techniques in zebrafish! Keep going, Urs! @inserm.fr #motordisease

This is great -- thanks for your efforts and the documentation. We've got it up and running for tERK stains. Some kinks for us work out but running registrations in a few seconds is so very satisfying!

Introducing warpfield, an open source Python library for GPU-accelerated non-rigid 3D registration. Warps and aligns gigavoxel volumes within seconds (not hours). For 3D microscopy, region-to-region and cell-to-cell matching. A collaboration with @mh123.bsky.social 🚀 github.com/danionella/w...

We are releasing a GPU-accelerated oblique interpolation library for oblique plane microscopy (OPM) volume reconstruction. It avoids aliasing and interpolation artifacts caused by rectilinear interpolation approaches. github.com/danionella/o...

Another study to share, led by my grad student Nicole Pranic! Before diving in, I'll add that Nicole (who is clever, tenacious, and interested in neural changes that underlie developmental changes in social behaviors) is looking for a post-doc position! Please RT! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

We’re seeking a postdoc/student excited about animal communication, brain-wide circuits, microscopy, singing fish (Danionella), wacky ideas and who likes to: get things done, experiment, analyze, ask, learn, help and cooperate. jlab.berlin

Interested in understanding how things work? In particular the tools you use to study the brain? Join us at TENSS 2025 where we brainstorm ideas, build and debug microscopes, electrophysiology and behavior rigs amidst the picturesque Transylvanian hills! tenss.ro Apply by: February 16th!

If you want to understand the brain, should you work as a neuroscientist in the lab? Or teach the subject for students? Or simply read textbooks and papers while having a normal job? In this blog post, I share some thoughts on this topic. gcamp6f.com/2025/01/08/a...

1/3 How does visual input affect the heading direction (HD) network? In our latest lab preprint, Ryosuke presents "visual landmarks" to larval zebrafish and shows that the HD network tethers to the visual environment. The experiments are again inspired by the beautiful recent work in Drosophila.

job offer! I am looking for a postdoc to join the nascent team. Come work with us to build microscopes and study spinal cord circuits. #ZebrafishCareers

High-speed 3D random access two-photon imaging at ≥ 300 kHz – with SPARCLS: opg.optica.org/optica/fullt... By the outstanding @carolineberlage.bsky.social and team, including @urslucasboehm.bsky.social, @andrewplested.bsky.social et al.

Reintroducing the lab by featuring some recent papers on acoustic communication in the tiny glassfish Danionella cerebrum (@danionella.bsky.social). Antonia Groneberg carefully characterized the ontogeny of their singing in JEB: doi.org/10.1242/jeb.... 🧵

It's woefully incomplete, but I've made the start of a starter pack for folks interested in microscopy. Suggestions for who else to include (including yourself!) are very welcome. go.bsky.app/SaYfAX3

Just put together the beginnings of a systems & behavior neuro starter pack (focus on rodent work) - obviously a lot of people missing, and most included are in my own little bubble, so if you want to be added do reply here! go.bsky.app/Hxpe53o

Switched waters to Bluesky. Still singing, still transparent, and back to having the smallest vertebrate brain around.

I think science twitter is finally moving here. Welcome everybody! 🧪
