Heads up: A ton of papers from my group at the Broad, Pittsburgh, Irvine, Caltech, Duke, Berkeley and especially the Allen are on deck for a big consortium publication on new methods to target range of specific neuronal and non-neuronal cells coming out in Neuron and associated journals May 20th!

The preliminary program for the 2026 Basal Ganglia Gordon Research Conference is up! www.grc.org/basal-gangli... Super excited about this program and to move the meeting to Europe for the first time - come join us in Tuscany!

🧵 1/ Excited to share our new research on immature neurons (ImN) in the adult human brain and their roles in healthy aging, Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and cognitive resilience. Here’s what we discovered 👇

Nature What's so special about the human brain? Torrents of data from cell atlases, brain organoids and other methods are finally delivering answers to an age-old question. www.nature.com/immersive/d4...

first thing to share here! excited to share lab’s first study in Parkinson’s disease revealing the prodromal vulnerability and function of the dopamine neuron subtype defined by Anxa1 expression - a specialized system controlling procedural motor learning www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Neuroscience students asked us to teach a PRACTICAL course on experimental methods, and it is now on YouTube! Please like and repost to help us get the word out! www.youtube.com/playlist?lis... Lecture 1: Signals and data acquisition Focusing on hardware, digital/analog I/O, synchronization 🧵

Neuroscientists: I remember an essay (probably in @elife.bsky.social) by Eve Marder about being a finisher, not someone who endlessly starts new projects - and this playing a big role in a scientific career. I can't find it in the Living Science collection, does anyone know which one I mean?

Hello, (Bluesky 🦋) World! I’m Giorgia, and I’m new here. Wrapping up my PhD in the SaltaLab at the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience. My research focuses on adult neurogenesis, Alzheimer's, and single-cell approaches. Check out our past work here: tinyurl.com/373x5r9z. Stay tuned for more!
