I'm presenting our recent preprint on "Assembly-based computations through contextual dendritic gating of plasticity" at the online workshop SNUFA tomorrow at 2:55pm (CET). They have a really cool lineup, check the agenda and the (free) registration link below 👇

After 13 years in the US, I’ve made the difficult decision to leave. Having packed up everything and rethought about priorities, rather painstakingly, while I’m sad to leave the life I’ve made here, I’m also relieved that I won’t have to plan my life around immigration policies anymore.

Spiking NN fans - the #SNUFA workshop (Nov 5-6) agenda is finalised and online now. Make sure to register (free) soon. (Note you can register for either day and come to both.) Agenda: snufa.net/2025/ Registration: www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/snufa-2025... Thanks to all who voted on abstracts! 🤖🧠🧪

📢 🚨 Technical Assistant Opportunity in Neuroscience 📢 🚨 Join us at @lmumuenchen.bsky.social and support research on how neural circuits 🧠 drive adaptive behavior! ⏳ Deadline: 15. November 2025 Learn more and apply: www.fens.org/careers/job-...

This moment from our latest episode with science writer @edyong209.bsky.social is 🔥 We asked Ed — how do we talk up the benefits of science in the face of government cuts? He told us that's the wrong approach. 🧪 Listen wherever, or watch on Spotify 👇 open.spotify.com/episode/7Evh...

Hi #Neuroscience, Exciting news—I’m recruiting a PhD student to join my lab and study neuroscience in larval zebrafish 🧠🐟 Microscopy expertise is a big plus! Link: drive.google.com/file/d/1Wb4h...

Thrilled to share our new Adesnik lab paper!! Using holography in excitatory & inhibitory neurons, we reveal how a single cortical circuit can both complete and cancel predictable sensory activity, sharpening representations 📄https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.08.02.668307v1 🧵

1/N What are the organizational principles underlying crossmodal cortical connections? We address this in this new preprint, led by @alexegeaweiss.bsky.social & ‪@bturner-bridger.bsky.social‬ in collab w/ ‪@petrznam.bsky.social‬ @crick.ac.uk www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Very happy to share this preprint from the lab led by @cmiehl.bsky.social, Sebastian and Maurycy on how to flexibly learn with nonlinear dendrites and inhibitory context-dependent gating, putting biological detail in ANNs. Check out Christoph's post below for a preview or the paper for more details!

Excited to share our new preprint in which we propose a biologically plausible mechanistic solution to the problem of how the brain can flexibly learn and store new representations without forgetting previously learned information. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Detailed 🧵 below 👇 1/12

Excited to share my PhD paper! In it, we use targeted 2-photon optogenetic stimulation to determine how V1 activity is read-out in a detection task. We found that network influence, not visual coding properties, predicted the impact of ensembles on behavior - contradicting our expectations (1/5).

Come join us at the GRS on Inhibition in the CNS 5-6 July. Perfect opportunity for early career researchers to network & learn about 🔥 topics in research on inhibition! We have a workshop on computational modeling inhibitory circuits targeted to both experimenalists and theorists. Details below 👇

Happy to share our new preprint! We show how cell-type-specific synaptic scaling mechanisms shape memory representations during associative learning and highlight a critical role of top-down inputs in modulating this process. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Got a radical idea that doesn’t fit the mold? #HFSP supports bold, high-risk postdoctoral research in #LifeSciences 🧪 Challenge the norm. Go international. Think beyond disciplines 💪 Apply now! 💥 Deadline May 15 | Initiate LOI by May 7 🔗zurl.co/gtbWu#HFSP#LifeSciences#sts

In our first “Postdoc perspectives” essay, @fleabrained.bsky.social and @maribel-patino.bsky.social explain how grassroots organizations led by trainees are stepping up to provide career and mentorship guidance for neuroscience students from marginalized backgrounds. #neuroskyence bit.ly/4csFx0B

Science is under threat in the US. @elife.bsky.social have commissioned a series of articles discussing the implications and what we can do. The first three articles are now live. More to follow: elifesciences.org/articles/106... elifesciences.org/articles/106... elifesciences.org/articles/106...

Recruiting postdocs! Please get in touch if you wanna discuss projects on biologically plausible learning in RNNs through TUM's global postdoctoral fellowship. I'll be at Cosyne this year if you wanna talk more. www.tum.de/ueber-die-tu...

Schroeder Lab website is now live! 🔥 Check it out 🤩 to learn about who we are, what we do to study how the brain gives rise to internal states that drive adaptive behavior 🧠, and how you can join the team 👇 🧪 Spread the word! www.annaschroederlab.com

As I've been seeing a lot of job postings here, I've set up a NeuroJobs feed. Add #NeuroJobs to your post if you're recruiting or looking for a PhD, Postdoc, or faculty position in Neuro or an adjacent field. bsky.app/profile/did:...
