The first @embo.org #Astrocyte #Meeting was a success! Thanks to our excellent speakers, brilliant trainees, & DiBio @unipd.bsky.social volunteers. Looking forward to the next iteration! Laura.Civiero Matthew.Holt Olga.Sin WonSuk.Chun Keith.Murai Valentin.Nagerl @carmenfalcone.bsky.social

@embo.org Astrocyte has been a success. Our lab at @kcnhub.bsky.social contributed by three posters and one talk in a continuous endeavor to build a #biophysical #theory of the #brain that puts #tripartite neuron #astrocytes circuits at its core @kbi-uhn.bsky.social Thanks team & brilliant peers.

Great feedback from a galvanizing community at @embo.org #Astrocye Meeting where @zhenyangsun.bsky.social presented our data unravelling how #anatomy shapes astrocyte function @kcnhub.bsky.social @kbi-uhn.bsky.social

Happy to share this work putting forth the first #computational model of #developing #embrionic cortical circuits. Phenomenal team coordination by Fernando Garcia Moreno @achucarro.bsky.social. @kbi-uhn.bsky.social @kcnhub.bsky.social

Despite carrying a genetic mutation associated with early-onset #Alzheimer’s, a man remained free of dementia symptoms for at least 2 decades longer than expected 👉 genetic variants may explain this remarkable resilience. See more here: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

I am excited to share the last work of my postdoc as a Swartz Fellow at NYU on the dynamic routing of large-scale cognitive networks in the neocortex! 🌐🧠 Here's a quick breakdown: 🧵 preprint: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Claiming #LLM will outperform #humans in #neuroscience or #science discovery is #hallucination. LLMs may aid discovery, but producing #foundational #scientific discovery is #serendipitous, which #LLM will confuse with #noise. I see LLMs as more useful for #fact-checking a study tinyurl.com/bdsx2mxa

My paper is out!! 🎉 "Opponent control of reinforcement by striatal dopamine and serotonin", @Nature Here, we show that dopamine and serotonin signals form a gas-brake system for reward in the mammalian brain THREAD ⬇️ 1/n

Should we just raise the issue with the #Candian equivalent...?

I am giving a 2-day #advanced #course on #astrocyte multiscale #models at the University of #Padua IT on April 10--11, 2025 #EMBO. An excellent opportunity to learn how to include #neuron-#glia #interactions in your models, from molecules to networks. Info & Registration: tinyurl.com/yx3m6acy

‘A place of joy’: why scientists are joining the rush to 🦋 Just out in @natureportfolio.bsky.social 👇 www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Sooo, there are still a few spots available if you want to give a talk at the third edition of #AstrocyteCafe 😏 #AstrocyteCafe is a FREE monthly seminars starting from January 2025! Speakers can be of any career stage: just send us an email with your topic to [email protected]!😍

Paper of the year 2 👉 astrocytes, glucose, lactate, IDO1 and impressive results! 👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

I'm just learning about Starter Packs. Here's a great place to find them! blueskydirectory.com
