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!

most wonderful team 😻

New study from the lab is out revisiting old friends/foes #dopamine and #acetylcholine 🧠 @natureneuro.bsky.social ! Congrats and thanks to all the team! #openscience @asapresearch.bsky.social @craggasap.bsky.social @oxforddpag.bsky.social

Are you an established (”distinguished”) researcher outside Europe? Thinking of moving here for some reason? Grant opportunity just dropped: www.vr.se/english/appl...

A new publication from Cragg Lab is out in @natureneuro.bsky.social revisiting old friends/foes #dopamine and #acetylcholine. Congrats to Yanfeng Zhang, Qinbo Qiao, and the rest of the team on a great paper! @stephcragg.bsky.social @asapresearch.parkinsonsroadmap.org #openscience #collaboration

My lab is has an open PhD position! In vivo work exploring neural circuits and neuromodulation. Please apply directly or contact me for more info 🧠 su.varbi.com/en/what:job/...

I am looking for electrophysiologists for couple of very exciting projects. Recent PhD graduates (defended within 2 years) is preferred, but open to other possibilities too. The lab is funded by ERC, SSMF, Brain Foundation, StratNeuro and others. Find me at KI. DM or email.

Registration for the 2025 @mpfneuro.bsky.social Neurotechniques Course closes this Wednesday! Co-directed by Ryohei Yasuda & @denisejcai.bsky.social and led by an amazing team of experts, this hands-on course is a great opportunity to learn cutting-edge methods in neuroscience 🔬🧠

I look forward to 7 months of amazing science and deep adventure at Stanford - my first week as a Stanford University Visiting Professor, with the pleasure to be in the trailblazing Karl Deisseroth lab in the Bioengineering department 🧠 want to talk brain circuits in the Bay Area? email me!

Hey, apply to the Neurobiology course at MBL! Lots of cool preps, new techniques and amazing faculty! Apps due Jan 27.

join this ambitious and uniquely collaborative initiative to help discover new ways to understand/prevent/treat PD

Excited to share our latest paper from a collab w Patrick Sullivan and others where results from two different data-driven approaches (GWAS/human-snRNAseq and fMRI) converge on the amygdala and hippocampus as key regions for schizophrenia: nature.com/articles/s41...

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...
