Gracias Nacho! 🥰

Fantastic science from Argentina 🇦🇷 @lforencia.bsky.social in the @muraronara.bsky.social Lab nails it with dual patch recordings in Drosophila, revealing coherent, input-driven oscillations in the accessory medulla.

Beautiful work from a brilliant team.

Gracias Caro! 🥰

This is science made 100% in Argentina at IBioBA-CONICET-MPSP with support from CONICET, Exactas_UBA, @cziscience.bsky.social, SAN_NeuroAr and y’all. Science faces tough times, let's stand for evidence, together💪 doi.org/10.1016/j.is...

Finally, we show that other neurons in the accessory medulla also exhibit coherent membrane potential oscillations, with diverse lags, suggesting the intriguing possibility that brain waves may arise from collective neuronal activity in this region of the fly brain 🤩(6/7)

small-LNvs oscillate behind large-LNvs with a consistent lag, so we went back to the theory and established relations between parameter values and observables such as the amplitude and phase lag of the forced oscillations (5/7)

The forced oscillator theory not only fits but also predicts features such as: “neurons of different type may present lags in their oscillations”. So @lforencia.bsky.social did lots of very difficult patch recording of LNv pairs 🙌, and found exactly that! (4/7)

… oscillations depend on cholinergic inputs. Accordingly, we found a phase response curve to be flat (this is odd, said the physicists!) so to model this, we introduce a generic theory for a forced oscillator that describes key aspects of the oscillatory dynamics! (3/7)

We first show you the longest, higher quality, better-analyzed patch clamp recordings of LNvs to date 😎, not only from large-, but also small-LNvs. We found that they both display consistent oscillations, but these are not cell-autonomous…(2/7)

Are #Drosophila accessory medulla neurons oscillating coherently? Out today @cp-iscience.bsky.social “Neuronal Synchronization in Drosophila”, featuring DUAL patch clamp recordings from the great @lforencia.bsky.social and impeccable theory by oscillation experts Marcos Wappner & Luis Morelli (1/7)

If you are an #EarlyCareerResearcher (grad student, postdoc, pre-tenure faculty) using #Drosophila, consider the new mentoring initiative #FlyCROSS. Complete the survey (link and QR code in the reposts) by Jan 5 to get matched up with a mentor.

We are hiring!

We are looking for two PhD students interested in the regulation of habit formation. Habits are useful to decrease cognitive load, but carry the risk of becoming stereotyped and hard to control - it’s hard to shake a bad habit. The fruit fly Drosophila also forms habits and we […]

We are pleased to report publication of the Drosophila circadian clock connectome in @naturecomms.bsky.social. Check out the final version for additional analyses not present in the preprint. @unrcabnr.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

We're delighted to see our study, "Mating proximity blinds threat perception" pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39198656/, featured by Nature Structural & Molecular Biology.

Thank you for spotlighting our work!

Great PhD opportunities at the Rezaval lab, don't miss out!

Thank you @katrinvogt.bsky.social for highlighting our work! Lovely piece

The 7th edition is in place!. It wil be held in Marbella, Chile next year and will be again part of the EMBO workshop series. The organizers are @monicamsousa.bsky.social, Kassandra Ori-Mckenney and Tomas Falzone. Registration is already opened neurocytoskeleton.com/2025/
