If you think it looks weird and rare, you’re right. It has 24 eyes and has only been filmed twice.

Excited to this one out!
Congrats @dlevenstein.bsky.social for this super cool study and the characterization of neuronal β€œground states”.

Let’s see how it correlates with other signals :p

I fell for it the very first day I recorded an HD cell ensemble. I remember like it was yesterday (13 years ago!).
I can even still recall exactly where I had dinner and with whom on that day, thanks to your PhD paper @adrian-du.bsky.social :p

Absolutely. But then you have different solutions to the problem of how to align these never ending drifting representations across the brain. One solution (not the only one I guess) is through β€œfixed” low dimensional latent factors.
Prediction: grid cells do not drift either.

kudos to @sskromne.bsky.social and @guillaumeviejo.bsky.social for all the hard work and dedication. Almost 400 recording sessions went into this!!

Also, a big thanks for the support from our funding agencies and institutions: CIHR, NSERC, @mcgill.ca, and @theneuro.bsky.social.

New paper alert! 🚨

We found that the brain's compass is remarkably stable at two scales

1️⃣ the system maintains its internal organization for weeks
2️⃣ It "remembers" its orientation for weeks, even after a single visit

This may be key to how the brain aligns its other maps.

The academic community failed Wikipedia for 25 years β€” now it might fail us Artificial-intelligence systems are feeding on Wikipedia without giving back, and academic indifference is threatening the survival of what is arguably the most widely used reference work on the plane...

Revealing a universal architecture of sleep by recording from different (and evolutionary distant) species.

How cooler can it be???

Great read by @alexkwan.bsky.social on how fundamental neuroscience research has paved the way for new drug development.
I’d also highlight orexin’s role in sleep–wake regulation and the upcoming wave of dual orexin receptor antagonists (DORAs) for sleep disorders (& soon agonists for narcolepsy).
