Exciting news!

@alegrecortes.bsky.social received the MSCA postdoc fellowship from @ec.europa.eu and @ireneserrahu.bsky.social has received the EMBO and FRM fellowships (@embo.org, @frm-officiel.bsky.social) to support their ambitious projects!

Multiple open positions to join this super team!

We invite applications for postdoctoral researchers with strong expertise in in vivo electrophysiology and circuit neuroscience to join our team at the Paris Brain Institute (ICM).

Been using Discord very successfully for a few years now, both for the lab and large communities.

Postdoc position in Paris: come help develop new generation human brain computer interfaces ⚡🧠💻

Interested? Contact me if you have experience with machine learning (e.g. simulation-based inference, RL, generative/diffusion models) or dynamical systems.

Fascinating! And yet another proof of the level of complexity of neuronal circuits.

If you want to join us for a short stay and learn with us, that's a good opportunity. If you are interested, get in touch!

Fantastic new work from our very own @alegrecortes.bsky.social !

Stay tuned for even more cool stuff!

🔥 New episode of the Night Science podcast! The brilliant Eve Marder, professor at Brandeis University, talks with us about how "Recipe Science" ruins creativity.

We will continue sometime soon with the 2nd #ParisCircuitDynamics conference.
Stay tuned!

Before finishing this thread, we should thank again all our sponsors who made this two-day celebration of hippocampo-cortical science possible.

And for the final talk of the conference, Karim Benchenane is sharing the latest on the role of breathing in coordinating neuronal dynamics during fear behavior.

Then @gisellavetere.bsky.social gave us a nice summary of the current state-of-the-art on how memory engrams control behavior

And now Rebecca Piskorowski is telling us how hippocampal CA2 circuits are involved in social memories!

We continue with @thomasandrillon.bsky.social who is telling as about the phenomenology and mechanisms of local and global sleep states.

And now we have 4 exciting short talks from our young investigators, going all the way from memory to molecules, through oscillations and computational modelling!

And after lunch, we resumed with @ggirardeau.bsky.social who told us about the role of amygdala in memory consolidation.

Intense discussions continued during lunch and the poster session!

And just before the break, Michael Zugaro is giving a broad perspective on the music and orchestration of neuronal assemblies.

Following this, Alain Destexhe explained to us how detailed biophysical modeling of neuronal networks can help us understand oscillatory dynamics.

Day 2 of the 1st #ParisCircuitDynamics conference begins with @antsiro.bsky.social giving us an impressive broad and deep overview of gamma oscillations in hippocampal and thalamocortical circuits!

And for the final talk of the day, Nelson Rebola is talking to us about the diversity of interneurons and the role of dendritic integration in controlling cortical inhibition.

Now, Stefan Remy is talking to us about how the medial septum influences hippocampal circuits during locomotion.

Then Alberto Bacci talked to us about the consequences of dendritic inhibition and over-inhibition of cortical circuits.

Following 4 exciting talks by young researchers, we moved to cellular physiology, with @poncerlab.bsky.social and his work on chloride transport and hippocampal rhythms.

This was followed by a talk from myself about the mechanisms underlying the functional architecture of neuronal circuits.

And after an intense discussion in a full amphitheater, we had a very exciting and packed poster session!

And off we go!

First talk of the 1st #ParisCircuitDynamics conference by Prof. David Dupret on how neuronal assemblies make memories!
