Neurobiologist @NYU’s Klann lab studying the molecular dynamics of diverse neuron types during cognitive tasks, and how it converges to behavior modification. Protein synthesis, mRNAs, RBPs and memory.

Hey all! Just another scientist trying to steer clear from the hell the other website became! Hopefully a bit more science here and less fanaticism. If you like neurobiology, protein synthesis and memory follow this account. Also may have occasional dog pictures from Santi, my guitarist Daschund

Journals should request a notepad file containing sessionInfo for every paper that uses clustering algorithms… reproducing a single cell clustering is almost impossible 😂😂

A preprint‼️that's bound to ruffle some 🪶 "Widespread DNA off-targeting confounds studies of RNA chromatin occupancy" led by our Micah Goldrich and Louis Delhaye from
Pieter Mestdagh in Ghent. TL;DR we show that many of lncRNA chromatin occupancy obtained are flawed www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Leveraging Proteomics to Explore the Molecular Mechanisms of Primary Tauopathies
Primary tauopathies are a group of neurodegenerative diseases characterised by the aggregation of tau in the brain. In these diseases, little is known about the molecular mechanisms driving neurodege....

This is such an interesting paper. Why? Because the binding of transcription factor (TF) proteins to DNA governs how our genes are turned on/off/up/down, & so is the primary issue for how our genes work in development and how our cells respond to just about anything.🧵

Excited to share the latest from the lab on the molecular mechanisms of silencing and un-silencing a hippocampal engram ensemble. Was fun using a variant of the EPSILON technique developed by Adam Cohen's lab.

A textbook assumption about the brain’s most abundant receptors needs to be rewritten
Neuronal AMPA receptors previously assumed to be calcium impermeable are unexpectedly shown to transport calcium ions.

What’s in store for US science as funding bill averts government shutdown
Spending on research, including at the NIH, will see modest cuts this year. But the threat of big reductions in future remain.
