Finally, the (belated) lab anniversary party! I'm blessed to have these brilliant, kind, fun & caring people in the lab. I love them all.
We've had a wonderful year of doing science (building stuff mainly!) & growing up together. To many more years of science & fun at LIM lab! pic.twitter.com/40JbIUlgL9

Many (all) species are sensitive to temporal regularities, learning and utilizing them seamlessly in different contexts. Ultimate case: human babies learning language. Check this beautiful work, where Catherine shows how mice are using temp regularities in their courtship beh. twitter.com/c_perrodin/sta…

This is really great, Chris! Thanks very much for putting all these material together and for sharing it with us.
@TonyZador, an excellent example for your recent "written talks" proposal :)

Today I will be teaching my undergrad course "How to build a brain from scratch" for the 2nd year running. I've put the materials online - include a document with all lecture slides and notes, which is about as long as a decent novel. Enjoy! humaninformationprocessing.com/teaching/

How does the thalamus contribute to memory?
Mediodorsal thalamus has a material-general role in familiarity; anterior thalamus has a material-general role in recollection
Mediodorsal thalamus coupling w/ MTL cortex is related to familiarity confidence

reposting this as a friendly nudge to those of you working with rodents :) about your practices around "clean" facilities.
if you retweet, it would be wonderful!

Gul Dolen's lab proposes that magnocellular oxytocin and parvocellular oxytocin neurons subserve two streams of social information processing, allowing a single molecule to encode an array of ethologically distinct behaviors.

Rodent twitter, a question for those of you working around "clean" breeding facilities. What's ur practice to enter the "clean" facility from outside "dirty" lab? Do u shower each time entering? Do u change into scrubs?
I'd really appreciate to hear about ur practice, & plz RT!

Imagine being accepted in a good US university, going through months long vetting process to get a visa, hoping to join your wife in America, then humiliated upon arrival in LA airport, dreams crushed, sent back. Your crime? Born Iranian.

Dual* first* author papers: did you know you can cite them throughout your paper as Jane, John et al. (2019)? @JNeurosci copyeditors just did that for our proofs. Yay! This is what I call true shared first authorship. @behrenstimb how about same in @eLife ?
