This was such a fun animation to make!

Very happy for Mike, @malcgcamp @naoshigeuchida et al to see their work now out on @biorxiv

[Malcolm Campbell @malcgcamp]

Excited to share our updated preprint on the neural basis of foraging decisions! This work was co-led by Michael Bukwich (twitterless, now at UCL) and me, with major contributions from co-authors, and the incredible animation is by @KJHerr23. (1/12)

I AM ALIVE. I was not on the plane that went down in Brazil on Friday. My condolences to the family, friends, colleagues, and patients of the passengers that passed. Thank you to everyone who reached out to check if I was safe.

[Airi Yoshimoto @AiriSyoshimoto]

I’m very excited to share that my graduate work is now online in @ScienceMagazine today!

With generous help from my mentor @yuji_ikegaya and my amazing teammates, we investigated a top-down pathway for volitional heart rate regulation!

Our paper "Cellular-resolution gene expression mapping reveals organization in the head ganglia of the gastropod, Berghia stephanieae" just came out in J. Comparative Neurology. @DesmondRamirez1, Thi Bui, and Paul Katz. We found many unexpected things...

Super excited to use my first post to share my PhD research, recently uploaded to bioRxiv (https://t.co/pqcsvPAKZQ)!

🧵We found that the circuit formed between the striatum and dopamine neurons implements a powerful algorithm known as "distributional reinforcement learning". 1/n

Hello twitter! the first output of my PhD with @naouchida is out in @biorxiv (!)
https://t.co/RgQME5FC8V (opening thread🧵)

[Florian Engert @EngertLab]

We just uploaded our most recently minted projected to Research Gate.

The story started as a collaboration between my lab, that of Armin Bahl’s in Konstanz, Hanna Zwaka’s new lab in Magdeburg, and Mark Fishman’s here at Harvard.

[Matt Lovett-Barron @lovett_barron]

Excited to share our first preprint on the neurobiology of collective behavior, where we studied the development of schooling in the transparent fish Danionella cerebrum 🐟🐟🐟🐟📜

[Nicholas Bellono @NBellono]

Where do new animal traits come from? We studied walking fish with “legs” to understand the evolution of novel organs and behavior.

I am actively seeking passionate and driven individuals to join my lab; Rigorous engineers with a strong neuroscience interest are especially welcome. Please visit my lab website for details: https://t.co/2YlJWJ1sN4
Join us on an adventure into the captivating world of the brain!

[Marc Duque Ramírez @marcduque3]

We are very excited to share our work using #zebrafish to study fast acting antidepressants work! Tl;dr –ketamine and related drugs drive minutes-long calcium elevations in astroglia sufficient to mediate their effects. https://t.co/1XIqOcIQqG Details below:

[Misha Ahrens @MishaAhrens]

New work from the lab out in Cell today, by En Yang and colleagues:

A brainstem integrator for self-location memory and positional homeostasis in zebrafish

Congrats to amazingly talented @The_En_Yang, and collaborators!

[Gregor Schuhknecht @GregorFPS]

Come check out our poster today at #SfN22 on the Ultrastructure of a Neural Integrator Circuit in the Zebrafish Hindbrain. With @mer_petkova and @EngertLab.
Poster board X6, 11-12.

[Bahl Lab @BahlLab]

We are looking for a new Ph.D. candidate to explore the neural basis of sensory integration and decision-making in zebrafish.
