Sosa Lab - Postdoctoral Researchers We are seeking postdocs to start in 2026!

The Sosa Lab is going to #SfN25 and actively recruiting ✨postdocs✨ with systems neuroscience experience! We study both fundamental memory processes and how memory changes during pregnancy and postpartum.

If you are interested in meeting at SfN, please email me! www.sosaneurolab.com/join/postdoc...

This was a fabulous, once in a lifetime colloquium -- and now the videos are available in high quality on the College de France web site @college-de-france.fr
www.college-de-france.fr/fr/agenda/co...
With talks by Edvard Moser, Nancy Kanwisher, Liz Spelke, Manuela Piazza, Luca Bonatti and more!

Nonhuman primate research to lose federal funding at major European facility The Dutch Senate has ordered the Biomedical Primate Research Centre in the Netherlands to shift its funding away from primate experiments by 2030.

Dutch lawmakers have approved the phase-out of primate research at one of Europe’s biggest facilities. Neuroscientists are worried.

Inter- and intrahemispheric sources of vestibular signals to V1 | PNAS Head movements are sensed by the vestibular organs. Unlike classical senses, signals from vestibular organs are not selectively conveyed to a dedic...

The convergence of inter- and intrahemispheric signals gives V1 a rich representation of head movements - fundamental for interpreting visual scenes during motion: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
Great collab with @alesz.bsky.social, E. Hamada, & N. Brunel back in my postdoc years in the Scanziani lab

Meanwhile, the contralateral visual cortex provides head movement signals during ipsiversive movements - creating a complementary system.
Crucially, the pulvinar already encodes these same variables, suggesting subcortical computation.

The ipsilateral pulvinar delivers the main head movement signal, with a bias toward contraversive movements (e.g., clockwise rotations are encoded more strongly in left V1).

By silencing different brain regions, we identified two main sources of these vestibular signals to V1:
• Ipsilateral pulvinar (thalamus)
• Contralateral visual cortex
Each provides complementary directional information.

We recorded from V1 neurons across all cortical layers in head-fixed mice during servo motor-driven rotations in darkness (no visual input). V1 neurons robustly encode head movement direction, velocity, and acceleration - even without vision!

🧵 New paper out🚨🧠! Information about motion is key to vision. Head motion signals from the vestibular system robustly modulate visual cortex activity. Despite this profound modulation, we still don’t know how these signals reach visual cortex - or even what aspects of head motion are transmitted.

SCN2A loss is strongly linked to neurodevelopmental delays and, at times, seizure. In an amazing collaboration with @nadavahituv.bsky.social, led by Serena Tamura, Andrew Nelson, and Perry Spratt, we leveraged CRISPR activator approaches to rescue this loss.

Coherent dynamics of thalamic head-direction neurons irrespective of input While the thalamus is known to relay and modulate sensory signals to the cortex, whether it also participates in active computation and intrinsic signal generation remains unresolved. The anterodorsal...

🚨New preprint alert!

The thalamus has long been seen as a relay of sensory signals to cortex.
But could it also generate its own structured activity?
Our study explores this question in the head-direction (HD) system.

Some explanation 🧵👇 1/13

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! 🧭
