🧵 New paper out🚨🧠! Information about motion is key to vision. Head motion signals from the vestibular system robustly modulate visual cortex activity. Despite this profound modulation, we still don’t know how these signals reach visual cortex - or even what aspects of head motion are transmitted.
🤯 👁️ Did you know the primary visual cortex tracks head movements even in complete darkness?

Guy Bouvier and colleagues managed to decode multiple head movement variables in V1 without light in the room, and discovered two distinct brain sources delivering these signals!

Did not see this enough on my timeline so I am re-posting because this, and Teresa, deserve to be celebrated. An incredible accomplishment for an incredible person and researcher
Teresa Puthussery, a UC Berkeley vision scientist whose insights into the retina could one day help those with vision loss regain their sight, has been named a 2025 MacArthur “genius” Fellow. news.berkeley.edu/2025/10/08/v...

Thrilled to see more attention given to the under appreciated contribution of vascular dysfunction in nearly all types of cognitive decline and dementia. An excellent review.
Delighted to share our latest review in Nature Reviews Neuroscience!
We examine the growing evidence that vascular dysfunction plays a key role in cognitive decline in ageing and dementia, and argue that preserving/restoring CBF should be central to future therapies.

🚨Thrilled to share our latest work with @alesz.bsky.social, N. Brunel, and M. Scanziani! In this study, we explored how head movement are encoded in mouse primary visual cortex and identified the main source of this signal reaching V1: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Thread coming soon!

The NIH Brain Initiative was cut by 40% last year -- accidently! (long story) It's been supporting a lot of cutting edge neuroscience research, and a lot of those efforts were cut off. Please write Congress to restore funding, using this handy form: www.americanbraincoalition.org/page/Contact...

Can cerebellar reflexive learning shine a little light on ASD related dysfunction? For SCN2A, it sure looks like it. New paper from Chenyu Wang, in collaboration with Guy Bouvier and FamilieSCN2A:

If you’re giving a zoom presentation, and your pet is barking, walking across your keyboard, etc., it is your duty to stop talking about your science and show us your fluffy or feathery friend.

Need sparse AAV expression in the cortex? Don't want to damage tissue with a pipette tract? Have a 2P sitting around? Then this paper is for you. Use optical opening of the BBB for titratable release of AAVs into the cortex.
