🧠 Check out our new study!
Cécile Bridlance et al. reveal how distinct, local, and cell-type–specific sources of CSF-1 orchestrate microglial colonization during early brain development.

🙏🙏🙏 A big thank you to everyone involved!
Microglial colonization of the developing mouse brain is controlled by both microglial and neural CSF-1

Happy to share our new paper with Mathilde Nordlund and Julie Koenig out @currentbiology.bsky.social. We used virtual reality in mice to study hippocampal distance coding. Our results suggest a primary contribution of grid cells to distance over cue-dependent place cell coding.

Our work looking into heterogeneous pyramidal neurons (PNs) in hippocampal CA3 is now online @cp-cellreports.bsky.social: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... With a pile of multicellular recordings from mouse CA3, we characterised the recurrent network at the single cell level...
Cell-specific wiring routes information flow through hippocampal CA3
The hippocampus, critical for learning and memory, is dogmatically described as a trisynaptic circuit where dentate gyrus granule cells (GCs), CA3 pyr…

New collaborative study out with Mark Wu’s group identifies a thalamic reuniens-zona incerta circuit as both responsive to induced sleep deprivation and essential for mediating recovery sleep. Further perspective on this work follows./1

Sleep need–dependent plasticity of a thalamic circuit promotes homeostatic recovery sleep
Prolonged wakefulness leads to persistent, deep recovery sleep (RS). However, the neuronal circuits that mediate this process remain elusive. From a circuit screen in mice, we identified a group of th...
