1/ Our paper appeared in @Nature today! www.nature.com/articles/s41... w/ Fiete Lab and @khonamikail.bsky.social . Explains emergence of multiple grid cell modules, w/ excellent match to data! Novel mechanism for applying across vast systems from development to ecosystems. 🧵👇

Every scientist, long before they were a scientist, was a little kid who stood in front of a fish tank or stared up at the stars or turned over a rock to look at the bugs underneath and said “wow”. On the best days, working in science still feels like that.

It’s an incredible feeling to see something you’ve poured your heart into come to life. This work was born from my curiosity about hippocampal “cognitive tuning.” Our interpretation of the environment depends on our actions, constantly evolving as we pursue our goals www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Do octopuses dream? In any case, can't get enough of watching them sleep 😴🐙 Look at this symphony of patterns and movements! Incredible. youtu.be/006DjAixu9E?...

Thankful for a loving family, all of my super funny friends, a happy and collaborative lab environment, and my rat Rafael for giving me some beautiful data tonight 🤩🥰🍗

Very timely piece. With 3-4 probes per rat and ultra long recordings, I’ve already generated 95TB of data for a single project. Thinking lots these days about how to store and publish all of this… 😬😬 Raw files vs. spike times x behavior or something in between?? Or both?

go.bsky.app/LdtUYZS I created a starter pack for the growing community of hippocampus physiologists that have joined the great migration. Also included the physiology-adjacent. Tell me who I haven’t found yet

Now out in Neuron! We benchmark place cell models using a massive CA1 dataset—nearly 70,000 rate maps—collected as mice explore environments with different geometries BVC models perform remarkably well, but we hope this dataset/approach becomes a resource for testing/refining place cell models

This paper adds to a nice list of papers recently that (broadly) merge brain and body biology: The others one are www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... And www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Super-psyched to share this preprint from my student Yicong (Alan) Zheng: "Recurrent Inhibitory Dynamics in the Entorhinal Cortex Support Pattern Separation" www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... It's a new biologicaly-based computational model of the entorhinal-hippocampal system. Thread (1/?)

At SFN 2018 in San Diego, I met my future PhD advisors @MayBrittMoser @EdvardMoser and future partner @davidwtingley 🥰 I’m super stoked to be back in my old college town this year to present Part 1 of my PhD work, catch up with old friends, and see some new science !! 🧠

So far, my first year of grad school has consisted of: - moving to a new continent - being in a very long distance relationship - being emotionally tested by various physics and math classes - recording some place cells - a global pandemic

I’m looking for a few comp. neuro papers to discuss with my signal processing buddies that use laplace/fourier transform- any suggestions? Shankar & Howard 2012 is up first :)

Celebrated my last day in the McNaughton Lab @ucicnlm yesterday. I’d like to extend a big thanks to all members of the group for being supportive colleagues, patient mentors and my best friends. I’ll miss you all dearly. Next stop, Moser Lab @KISNeuro!
