What a beautiful November İstanbul “sun”day morning along Bosphorus, in between Asia and Europe. Many pods of dolphin fishing in between continents were the absolute bonus of the day ❤

Evolution of taste processing shifts dietary preference - Nature Calcium imaging of taste neurons and the ventral brain provides insight into evolutionary divergence of food choice in Drosophila species, supporting a role of sensorimotor processing in addition to p...

Thrilled to share our new paper!
With @tomtom-auer.bsky.social team, we asked how #evolution reshapes what animals #eat to match their ecological niches. Using pan-neuronal Ca2+ imaging, we show that the changes are in how the brain processes #taste.

From cognition in the body to the body in cognition Carlos Ribeiro and Albino Oliveira-Maia propose how brain–body interactions may inform the study of ‘higher’ cognitive functions such as learning and memory across model systems.

New essay in @currentbiology.bsky.social special brain-body issue! Fly lab meets psychiatrist: how bodily signals shape cognition and mental health. Great collaboration with Albino Oliveira-Maia showing @champalimaudf.bsky.social discovery ↔️ clinic at its best. www.cell.com/current-biol...

So proud🤩: Beautiful work by @clykken.bsky.social 💃🏻 et al: finally we understand how the hippocampus can express multiple maps even though grid cell inputs are universal metrics.
E.g. hippocampal global remapping was induced when different grid modules anchored independently to environments. See 👇🏽

The original fossils of human ancestors Lucy & Selam welcome you to the new exhibition People and Their Ancestors - National museum Exclusively on display from Ethiopia – the land of origin

Very special encounter today at Prague museum! It was incredible to see the skeleton of two of the first humanoids Lucy and Selam from 3.2 millions years ago. I highly recommend to anyone visiting Prague! @emreyaksi.bsky.social

Those big and small spikes were certainly differently regulated in the neuromodulatory cells I patched . But again, I always thought I was listening to other

Super cool Anna… I remember patching some giant GnRH+ neurons in the olfactory bulb with different spike sizes . I always thought those smaller spikes were form a gap junction coupled neuron. But perhaps they were from a different AİS … btw what marker is used to label AİS here ?

Special thanks to Koichi Kawakami for sharing key transgenic lines, and to all our colleagues interested in cortical evolution, your insights and feedback were invaluable.
