Can we image intracellular calcium with ultrasound? Yes, w/ultrasonic reporters of calcium - URoCs! Congrats to Zhiyang Jin and co-authors on creating the first genetically encoded acoustic biosensors of this universal cell signal based on #gasvesicles. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

New study in Current Biology gives the most detailed description yet of cilia in the mouse visual cortex. The study was a collaboration including researchers from the Allen Institute @hhmijanelia, University at Albany, Harvard Medical School, and others. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

My lab has a fully @FWF-funded PhD position in Computational Neuroscience at TU Graz, Austria, available. The project will be in collaboration with the University of Regensburg, Germany Barbara Di Benedetto Please find more information here: tugraz.at/fileadmin/user…

This might make some waves: norepinephrine doesn't remodel synaptic function and behavioral states by signaling onto neurons. It does so by mobilizing astrocytes. Companion preprints by Katie Lefton & Alex Chen with Misha Ahrens biorxiv.org/content/10.110… biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Application deadline for Cajal School is extended! Please help spread the word!

Great new preprint on our modeling of astrocyte electrophysiology! We show that small K+ increases combined with glutamatergic activation of a few NMDA receptors can locally depolarize perisynaptic astrocytic processes by 20 mV and trigger K+ outflow. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
