📢Call for students📢

Are you a student passionate about #science communication?

Do you speak more than one language fluently?

We want to hear from you!

We're looking for multilingual students to help us make #neuroscience more accessible. Details here: neurofrontiers.blog/the-brain-ac...
#SciComm
The brain across languages - Neurofrontiers
What this project is about Understanding the brain is essential and, without a doubt, fascinating. But while the science of the brain affects everyone, the language of that science remains predominant...

🚨Funded PhD studentship co-supervised by me and @matthewwself.bsky.social. Using neuropixels, behaviour, viral tracing and optogenetics you’ll study how visual areas enhance target representations vs background to support goal-oriented actions.

We recently received support from the @sebiology.bsky.social!! Thank you so much!
Only two weeks left to apply for the Gordon Research Conferences on Inhibition in the CNS. It’s the perfect opportunity to network, explore cutting-edge research, and share your own work with a vibrant community. Applications are still open! Feel free to reach out with any questions! #neuroskyence

Fast-spike interneurons in visual cortical layer 5: Heterogeneous response properties are related to thalamocortical connectivity

Some L5 INT with strong input from LGN and visual responses more similar to L4 INT than those receiving little direct LGN input.

Fast-spike interneurons in visual cortical layer 5: Heterogeneous response properties are related to thalamocortical connectivity
Layer 4 of rabbit V1 contains fast-spiking GABAergic interneurons (suspected inhibitory interneurons, SINs) that receive potent synaptic input from the LGN and generate fast, local feed-forward inhibi...
