Our findings suggest that during simple timing tasks, hippocampal time cells may code for discrete events (reward delivery) while persistently active/ramping neurons may represent continuous intervals.(4/4).

Research from the Inagaki Lab led by @Zidan_Yang has discovered how the motor cortex and striatum work together like an hourglass to flexibly control movement timing. Learn more https://t.co/AQlRvDY7IN

Registration for the 2025 @MPFNeuro Neurotechniques Course closes this Wednesday!
Co-directed by @Ryohei_Neuro & @denisejcai and led by an amazing team of experts, this hands-on course is a great opportunity to learn cutting-edge methods in neuroscience 🔬🧠
🌍 Excited to share that our paper, "Neural Circuit Mechanisms Underlying Context-Specific Halting in Drosophila," is officially out in Nature today! 🎉Grateful for the support and collaboration that made this possible. Check it out! https://t.co/Ju0vbv2pam
@FlyWireNews@MPFNeuro
Excited to share my first paper from Inagaki Lab @MPFNeuro!
How does the “timer” in our brain control movement? We discovered specialized computational roles of the frontal cortex and striatum that implement such an action timer⏱️

If you're a neuroscientist, you've probably heard that congress passed final appropriations for FY24, with deep cuts (~40%) to BRAIN Initiative. Advocates are now pushing for +$740 million in FY25 and @SfNtweets made it easy for you to add your voice here:

Just gave a talk at @MPFNeuro Neuroimaging course. I really enjoyed the 2-week course talking and working with amazing faculties, TAs and students. P.S. Tomorrow we will announce something so please stay tuned!
Excited to share my first PhD work and the first preprint from Inagaki lab at @MPFNeuro
We show that plasticity in specific excitatory neuronal cell-types is required to shape neocortical neural dynamics underlying motor learning

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.
The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.
Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.
The list goes on...
Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.
I’m a very excited to announce our first preprint in the Heys lab! This work is led by an amazing team of co-lead authors @ErinBigus and @Hyunwoo_Lee5223 who both pushed this project to become something special. A thread…1/N
