"Shake It Off" is not just a song, it's the postdoc mantra for bouncing back after failed experiments #tourturedpostdocdepartment

Read this publication to see how a S-Probes with Fiber Optic (24 channel) was used! bit.ly/3SYS0RA

The authors validate the efficacy and specificity of optogenetic stimulation in activating the laminar circuitry of V1. In the discussion, the authors compare their findings with existing studies and analyze the potential impact of confounding factors. bit.ly/3SYS0RA

A study conducted by M. Ortiz Rios et al. at Newcastle University, layer-targeted optogenetic stimulation was combined with functional magnetic resonance imaging to explore the local & distal effects of optogenetic stimulation in the primary visual cortex of non-human primates

See how the CineLyzer Behavioral Tracking was used in a 17’ X 13’ T-Maze!

The authors introduce a T-maze apparatus designed for pigs to assess spatial working memory capacities. Results show that pigs quickly learned the task and performed above chance levels, indicating its potential as a tool for studying neurological and psychiatric diseases in pigs.

A publication from @AllenNeuroLab et al., at @FIU discusses the underutilization of pigs in behavioral neuroscience despite their potential as a translational model. Pigs offer advantages such as similarities to humans in brain anatomy and physiology. bit.ly/4bDP3NB

Principal Component Analysis for Unit Sorting: What It Tells Us and What It Does Not Principal component, or PC, is a term that people encounter when sorting units in Offline Sorter. It is a common visualization to graph the first two principal components as the X and Y axes in a feat...
