Mix two motors of opposite polarity with microtubules and they will partition space ! Microtubules will get organized in polar and active barriers, sorting the two motors in separated domains, leading to the emergence of a new type of patterns. #morphogenesis doi.org/10.1073/pnas... (1/n)

Have you ever wondered how memories are processed downstream of the #hippocampus and how this is affected by #Alzheimer's? We believe we may find some answers by riding all the way down the fornix to the mammillary body. Apply here for a fully-funded #PhD with us: ovgu.b-ite.careers/56yvk

How it started, and how it ended… Honored and happy to receive an ERC Consolidator Grant for our research on amygdala interneurons. The fun part is actually going to start soon, get in touch if you are interested in peptide signalling from interneurons!

Our new study is out on BioRXiv! tinyurl.com/pfcmap We (@carlenlab.bsky.social lab) mapped the mouse PFC using single-unit activity! We recorded ~23,000 neurons across cortical/subcortical regions and profiled spont. firing patterns to reveal what separates the PFC from other brain regions. 1/n

We are interested in all aspects globally connecting the neural crest to evolution, biomedicine and specific sub-field of developmental biology. In this study we show the role of motor circuits in shaping neural crest-derived sympathetic nervous system: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I was listening to @helenajambor.bsky.social in the October FocalPlane Webinar and at minute 27:39 an idea came to my mind. Why not make an interactive publication figure. Here a (still rudimentary) test image for a very simple prototype where all 2 channel combinations of 5 channels can be seen

#Microtubules flow retrogradely in all neurites before axon specification - labeled CAMSAP3 on the right. After axon outgrowth, this retrograde flow slows down - to enable stable axon growth. Could this retrograde flow also exist in #microglia, #astrocytes & #cancer cells? #FluorescenceFriday 🧪 🧠📈
