Ever observed a displaced retinal ganglion cell and wondered what’s going on? 🤔

@buddhadoodlee @MatteoSpinelli_ Thanks, Pranav! 🙂

1/ Our new preprint provides insights into the amazing complexity of retinal architecture, highlighting how distinct features of the first inhibitory interneuron of the 🐭 visual system are tailored to the visual environment. #warpedretina

Thank you so much, @MatteoSpinelli_ , Alejandra, and all coauthors, for all your efforts ❤️

3/ Our findings suggest that horizontal cells align the spatial structure of receptive fields in postsynaptic neurons with the visual scene properties from ground to sky.

Dear science friends, is anybody considering a transition to the blue sky world and needs an invite code?

How are neurons activated by sensory stimuli? For the past century, the only method for addressing this question has been neurophysiology.

Monday I'll be giving an online talk titled: "The melanopsin mosaic: exploring the diversity of non-image forming retinal ganglion cells". Come and learn about regional specializations of retinal neurons. @worldwideneuro https://t.co/qOQSMCEK4P

Student2 performed countless recordings to hit a displaced cell located in the proper spot on the array. Reviewers, *please* choose words wisely when you think results are inconclusive. Otherwise your comments can be devastating after students have invested years of hard work 🙏

[Christian Puller @christianpuller.bsky.social @ChristianPuller]

Rev2 finds the data „limited“ and „somewhat preliminary“. Student1 counted 100s of thousands of cells and traced dozens of them through difficult 🔬stacks while …

We are thrilled! Together with @Tanaxolotl and @TreutleinLab, our director Kevin Briggman has been awarded an #ERCSyG, aiming at better understanding the amazing regenerative abilities of the #axolotl central nervous system.

Main findings are fantastic. But the concentration along the horizontal midline is a neat little feature, too, which I hope is getting enough attention 🙂

[Keisuke Yonehara @KeisukeYonehara]

Finally confirmed!!! Congrats @TeresaPuthusse1 and the team for the beautiful work!!!!
