🚨 New paper in @nature.com
We asked why two hippocampal areas with very different anatomy, CA3 and CA1, often seem to code space so similarly?
By recording bats flying up to 200m, we found that the difference was hidden by scale!

Dont stop dreaming…
When I stare at a modern art canvas, I dont think, thats one reason I find it cathartic. You?

Celebrating milestones on this journey with this great group of scientists. Engaged & excited about discoveries even with the assault on science at all levels. @travisgoode.bsky.social @jasonalipio.bsky.social @aloknm.bsky.social and Yu-Tzu S, Cinzia V, Iyanah M and Trey M, not on platform.
Auchincloss said a focus needs to be maintaining the US as a hub for discovery and basic research that leads to new drug targets.

Got that beautiful Friday run in before tomorrow’s 40 mph 40-48F 0.25 inch rainy day. Thx beautiful New England for graciously sharing your whims.

The hippocampus exhibits a CA3-to-CA1 coding transformation that combines fast learning with an efficient, compressed neural code.
POINTseq, now out in Neuron after peer review. Read it. There are barcodes, viruses, and dopamine. Congrats to @hyopilkim.bsky.social on leading our lab's first published paper!

Kim et al. introduce POINTseq, a high-throughput barcoded connectomics method for mapping brain-wide single-neuron projections of a specific cell population defined by common viral-genetic tools. Applying POINTseq to mouse midbrain dopamine neurons reveals diverse connectomic cell types and stereotyped collateral wiring patterns that may underlie distinct dopamine functions.
