Our version of record in Elife. A close collaboration with Rubin lab@Janelia building CX specific tools, determining their neurochemical identities and screening them for sleep phenotypes. 7 years in making and hopefully a great resource for the community.

Tactile edges and motion via patterned microstimulation of the human somatosensory cortex
Intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) of somatosensory cortex evokes tactile sensations whose properties can be systematically manipulated by varying stimulation parameters. However, ICMS currently pr...

Ever wanted to do deep learning with a neural net that is one-to-one mapped to 65.05% of the fruit fly brain? 😄
Before this year ends, I will quickly advertise our code release of `flyvis.`

Work with @jakhmack.bsky.social, @srinituraga.bsky.social and colleagues

The two-photon laser under the objective did not look great. After some checking, I found a burnt mirror in the laser path. 😮💨 I need to ask facility to use a better air filter. ☹️

My favorite neurons. :D
Did you know a fruit fly’s brain has its own internal compass? Studying these neurons helps scientists explore how brains process spatial information, offering insights into navigation across species.

In the latest “This paper changed my life," Anne E. West explains how an epigenetics paper shaped her studies on brain plasticity, highlighting that sometimes important contributions to neuroscience come from a paper outside the field.

This paper changed my life: ‘Histone demethylation mediated by the nuclear amine oxidase homolog LSD1,’ from the Shi Lab
This paper defined key rules of epigenomic regulation and shaped how I study chromatin plasticity as a mechanism for experience-dependent changes in the brain.
