Last Friday, the Systems & Network Neuroscience program kicked off the new academic year with an inspiring meeting. Three great speakers from the SNN community presented their research: Daniele Avitabile (VU), Arjan Hillebrand (Amsterdam UMC), and Marlies Oostland (UvA).

'(...) there is no established resource for group leaders to improve their lab culture with concrete action points for implementation. Here, we introduce the SAFE Labs Handbook: a collection of thirty “commitments” which can be verifiably actioned without requiring institutional support.'

I am very proud to announce that my PhD paper finally came out in Cell! In this *very* collaborative study, we develop and release a deep-learning approach to predict neuron type identity from their electrical signature. doi.org/10.1016/j.ce... 1/16 🧵

Indeed, we learned some valuable lessons throughout this project. This is a great summary by David of those lessons. One cannot underestimate the importance of incredibly careful data curation!
We certainly learned lots of lessons from this paper (e.g., need for standardizing pre-processing across labs and incredibly careful data curation, necessity of pharmacological blockade for opto-tagging in cerebellum, nearly complete inability to record granule cells using conventional probes).

Hello everyone! 👋 The Kesselslab (PIs: Helmut Kessels, Jan Gorter, Erwin van Vliet, Pascal Chameau, Natalie Cappaert, Marlies Oostland & Bart Jongbloets) from SILS at the University of Amsterdam has made the move from Twitter. We are looking forward to continuing the scientific conversation here.
