1/ 🚨 New preprint! 🚨 Excited and proud (& a little nervous 😅) to share our latest work on the importance of #theta-timescale spiking during #locomotion in #learning. If you care about how organisms learn, buckle up. 🧵👇 📄 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... 💻 code + data 🔗 below 🤩 #neuroskyence

Thrilled to share that our work is now published in Science! ✨ We found a preference for visual objects in the mouse spatial navigation system where they dynamically refine head-direction coding. In short, objects boost our inner compass! 🧭 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... 🧵1/

We are still accepting applications for the #postdoc opportunity in the lab 🕵‍♀️ 🧠 More details 👇 Postdoctoral position: lnkd.in/g4TkRxpM Research directions: lnkd.in/eV2iMKGf Our team and philosophy: lnkd.in/eh3nnNgq ⏬

Only one more week to apply to do a postdoc with our group and this of @thomasdwkim.bsky.social @ncmbm.bsky.social @nordicembl.bsky.social ! If you are interested, contact us or apply directly to the add. Please RT. www.jobbnorge.no/en/available...

Today, our article "The entities enabling scientific fraud at scale are large, resilient, and growing rapidly" is finally published in PNAS. I hope that it proves to be a wake-up-call for the whole scientific community. reeserichardson.blog/2025/08/04/a...

Data reuse represents an opportunity to accelerate science, reduce costs and increase the value of investments. But to date, the field hasn't placed equal emphasis on the reuse side of the data-sharing equation, writes @bendichter.com #neuroskyence www.thetransmitter.org/open-neurosc...

Check out our latest research on the neural mechanisms of nicotine (and alcohol) feedback in dopamine circuits, just published in @natcomms.nature.com!

Our work on the role of the interpeduncular nucleus in nicotine reward ( www.cell.com/neuron/abstr... ) is featured in a Neuron Preview ! Brandon J Henderson highlights how a new regulatory circuit controlling nicotine reinforcement has been uncovered. www.cell.com/neuron/abstr...

We need your help!!! 🧠🧪💤 If you are human, you fall asleep at least once a day! What happens in your mind then? Scientists know actually very little about this private moment. We propose a 20-min survey to get as much data as possible! Here is the link: redcap.link/DriftingMinds

Two postdoc positions in the lab within the ERC Synergy project "Chronology" in collaboration with S. Ostojic, M. Jazayeri and V. van Wassenhove @virginievanw.bsky.social . Two focuses: sound sequences representations across the brain & novel all-optical technology. Contact: [email protected]

The other shoe finally dropped. We were notified this morning that our NIH funding for our work on photopharmacology tools has been cut. We’ll keep going with or without them 🤷‍♂️

Super happy to see our new study, on how the interpeduncular nucleus (IPN) regulates nicotine reward, out today in @cp-neuron.bsky.social! Using #chemogenetics, we @faurelab.bsky.social show that blocking IPN activation enhances VTA responses and increases nicotine's rewarding effect. #neuroscience

It was great to have been able to present my latest work on photopharmacology at the Society of Neuroscientists of Africa meeting #SONA2025 in Marrakech. Hope this will lead to future collaborations – will make sure to attend the next edition!
