🖥️A new method developed by Alex Hillsley, @janfunkey.bsky.social & collaborators counts the individual molecules contained in a single spot of light detected by a fluorescence microscope—a quantity important for understanding the underlying biology of a living system. www.janelia.org/news/new-met...

🥼Researchers, led by @mishaahrens.bsky.social, Ziqiang Wei & Takashi Kawashima, are decoding how neurons carry out computations carefully calibrated to an animal’s movement & environment to precisely regulate the release of neuromodulators. www.janelia.org/news/new-res...

🚶Aimlessly wandering around a city or exploring the new mall may seem unproductive, but new research led by @zh0ng0.bsky.social @marius10p.bsky.social @computingnature.bsky.social suggests it could play an important role in how our brains learn.‬‬ 🧠 🔗 www.janelia.org/news/zoning-...

💻A new class of simplified ‘minimodels’ developed by Fengtong Du, Miguel Angel Núñez-Ochoa, @marius10p.bsky.social & @computingnature.bsky.social can predict the visual responses of individual neurons in the primary visual cortex, helping shed light on how we see.👀 ➡️ www.janelia.org/news/new-com...

I love this new technique developed my colleague James Liu and his lab at Janelia.

I’m excited about this collaborative project by @sunw37.bsky.social, @johanwinn.bsky.social, and many other talented contributors. Read about how our @hhmijanelia.bsky.social team imaged thousands of neurons in mouse hippocampus as mice learned cognitive tasks over several days: hhmi.news/4hXIp7r
