So proud to share the published version of this work of the Biogeography of cortical fast-spiking interneurons!
We demonstrate that in association cortices many FS neurons do not express parvalbumin. Kavli Neuroscience NTNU medisin og helse

Budget win for Support Our Science ence —after 20 years of scholarship stagnation the government has finally agreed to allow our best and brightest grad students to live at or above the poverty line!

Dendritic translation is long recognized in synaptic plasticity. But a key missing link was on specificity- how and what subset of mRNAs is being selected? Ezgi Hacisuleyman & Bob Darnell (@darnelr.bsky. & bob.darnell@Threads) beautifully show how eIG4G2 contributes to this. Huge amount of creativity & effort- a must read!

First time seeing a total eclipse! Surreal & eerie experience. Feel so spoiled that it happened at our door step in Montreal.

🤔Neuron surface proteins are covered with N-glycan types that are typically not found at the surface in other cell types. How come? To what benefit?

🥁 some answers here 👉doi.org/10.1101/2024.0…

please RT.

🙏big kudos to Chun-Lei Zhang and Team Piskorowski Chevaleyre

We’re excited to share our most recent paper where we adapted the IBEX technique to label every cell type in the retina. If you’re stuck with antibodies raised in the same animal or want to see more proteins/cells at the same time, this could help.

Glad to see this published yesterday in Cell Reports. Much of this started with a bit of a curious finding - animals lacking netrin-1, the classic guidance cue, were really bad at solving a 1h delay non-match to sample Y maze. A 🧵/1

I am super excited to present my work next Tuesday MPI for Brain Research, at 9AM EST!

The details for the zoom login are below in the flyer, and you are all welcome to join in and check what is new on the regulation of mRNA translation during LTM consolidation. Hope to see you all there! :)

Let me highlight and contextualize our new study that will undoubtedly be controversial: ‘Most axonal mitochondria in cortical pyramidal neurons lack mitochondrial DNA and consume ATP’. Long thread 👇🏻 1/

I will be presenting my work on Fish-on-Chips via Zoom on the coming Tuesday. Hosted by MPI for Brain Research, details can be found in the attached posters.

Thanks Elena Kutsarova, Eva and Alena for the very nicely designed posters!
