doi.org/10.1126/scie... This seems rad: overexpressing FruM in a set of proboscis-motorneuron-projecting neurons makes melanogaster males add food-sharing to their courtship repertoire. It is fascinating to see evolutionary shifts in behavior be tied so concretely to shifts in brain development!

The connectome of the entire male Drosophila central nervous system is out!! Acquired using FIB-SEM @ 8x8x8nm, we aligned 7.5 mio 2D images aligned into one seamless 3D volume, which was used to segment & proofread neurons and synapses. @hhmijanelia.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

There is some confusion about whether or not we understand LLMs. The answer is yes and no, but mostly no. It's a complicated enough question that it seemed like it needed an article. www.verysane.ai/p/do-we-unde...

🚨🚨My PhD work pre-print🚨🚨 Check it out 👇👇 'Avoidance engages dopaminergic punishment in Drosophila' It's a great collaborative enterprise and can't thank enough to my mentors and collaborators for the kindest efforts...fingers crossed 🤞🤞

@guidomeijer.com has #neuropixels preprocessing worked out for you!

It's officially published!! In my main postdoc work with @markplitt.bsky.social and @lgiocomo.bsky.social, we found that the hippocampus simultaneously encodes an animal's spatial position and its experience relative to reward in parallel population codes. 🧵 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Sharing a new paper from the lab. This paper, led by Sangyoon Ko, represents a merging of two longstanding research themes in the lab-- adult neurogenesis and systems consolidation. rdcu.be/el18q A short thread follows for those interested. 1/n

🚨Very excited to share a new paper from our lab in Neuron (@cp-neuron.bsky.social) on the influence of the estrous cycle on structural and functional plasticity in the hippocampus: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... Thread below 🧠🧪🧵:

Our paper in @natcomms.nature.com, we show how cognitive maps in the hippocampal system could solve the general problem of representing and relating multiple alternative action plans.  doi.org/10.1038/s414... With @doellerlab.bsky.social, Patrick Haggard, @vigano.bsky.social, Daniel Reznik

Our paper is out in Nature. By examining various inputs to the motor cortex during learning, we found that thalamic inputs learn to activate the cortical neurons encoding the movement being learned. Tour de force by Assaf in collab with Felix and Marcus. Congrats! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Very excited to share part of my postdoctoral work from the @tjryan.bsky.social lab, out now in @nature.com. Here, my brilliant co-author @andreamunozz.bsky.social and I explored the link between memory engrams and whole-body metabolism. A thread: 🧵 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Very excited to share the first preprint of my PhD thesis! Together with @tschreiner.bsky.social, we investigated how respiration coordinates signature neural expressions of successful remembering during memory retrieval. 🫁🧠 🧵(1/8)

Exciting new paper from David Dupret's lab, showing that hippocampal CA1 ripples can be categorized in 2 types, either driven by CA3 or entorhinal inputs, & are associated with different replay content. The categorization only requires pyramidal layer recording. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Excited to share our latest story! We found disentangled memory representations in the hippocampus that generalized across time and environments, despite the seemingly random drift and remapping of single cells. This code enabled the transfer of prior knowledge to solve new tasks

Check out the new preprint by Manfredi @vitorlds.bsky.social et al., who find that hippocampal replays can be classified by their sinks in Radiatum or LM! Radsink -> recent waking motifs LMsink -> prior coactivity motifs www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
