📢Big news, please RT🎉 I will be starting as a TT Assistant Professor (W2) of Neuroscience at @LMU_Muenchen in April 2025! The Schroeder lab will study how the brain 🧠 generates internal states, and then uses this information to adapt behavior in dynamic environments. 👇A🧵
We're thrilled to announce the recipients of this year's FENS-KAVLI Network of Excellence prizes:
🏆 Prof. Peter Scheiffele won the FKNE Mentoring Prize
🏆 @l_petrucco was awarded the FKNE PhD Thesis Prize
Congratulations to the awardees! 🎉
@FensKavliNet
Thrilled to see this passion project out @nature: https://t.co/3g0c8zyaRw
Congratulations and thanks to @aaron_t_kuan (now with a shiny new lab at Yale), @bondanelli_g, and all who made possible this work to reveal a connectivity principle that supports decision-making!
🌟 New chapter ahead! We're opening a #PhD position at @biozentrum to build upon our latest #synapse#proteomics study.
🔬Embark on an exciting journey with us. @PeterScheiffele @UniBasel_en@snsf_ch

Becoming a PI comes with a series of hurdles that can be solved more easily with proper leadership training. We are very proud of the launch of this initiative in collaboration with CHET: please help us spread the word and apply! @FensKavliNet@FENSorg@KavliFoundation
Ever make a mistake and had to correct it? Maybe these neurons have something to do with it. Great team effort from the Harvey and Greenberg labs at Harvard Medical School.

Tour de force-how an interneuron subtype regulate animal navigation: single cell profiling, ex vivo patch-clamp shows gap junction-coupling (!) & clever behavioral assay reveals reinforcement networks for error correction. From my PhD classmate Jon Green!

Congratulations to The Brain Prize winners of 2023: Professors Michael Greenberg, Christine Holt and @erin_schuman.
They have done pioneering work on molecular mechanisms of brain development and plasticity

Check out our newest preprint from @PeterScheiffele lab! We discovered the role for Bone Morphogenic Proteins in regulation of excitation-inhibition balance in the adult cortex. We also made it possible now to image and quantify glutamatergic synapses on the PV dendrites in vivo!
A cool new paper from @pollinalab, Daniel Gilliam (NOT), and @MEGNeuro! Identifying a new neuronal specific repair mechanism in active neurons. How do neurons, which can last 80 years, balance transcription induced DNA damage and repair. https://t.co/EBOZ3K0lZK
HMS Assistant Professor of Genetics Lauren Orefice studies the development and function of our sensory systems and how these systems are altered in autism spectrum disorder

Announcement: I will start my own junior group (@snsf_ch Ambizione) in March 2023! There is an opening for a PhD student, co-supervised by myself and Fritjof Helmchen, to work with me in Zurich on a very exciting project: https://t.co/K5bswJ6EwJ
Our paper is out! New recombinases for large DNA integration in human cells https://t.co/lBlz78lRHZ
We discovered thousands of recombinases and their DNA targets by searching in mobile genetic elements🧬🦠
Our experiments showed some are promising tools for genome engineering🖋️
What a blast at the @FENSorg in Paris, amazing science and discussions!! Truly a treat to meet new people and to see so many old friends and colleagues! Waiting for #FENS2024
