During moderate tonic locus coeruleus activation in mice, noradrenaline release engages cortical regions related to associative processing, while burst-like stimulation biases the brain toward sensory processing

Out now in @NatureNeuro: "Centripetal integration of past events in hippocampal astrocytes regulated by locus coeruleus", https://t.co/XkwuepGe8R
With a great team: @FritjofHelmchen @BohacekLab @SianDuss @cloois and (twitterless) Denise Becker. 1/5
🔵 Noradrenaline directly regulates gene expression in the brain. 8 years in the making, now finally published in @eLife 🥳
During revisions, we added 32 RNAseq samples and a meta-analysis of 71 RNAseqs to rule out major sex differences. #stress

The first cellular map of a mammalian brain is here. 🧠✨
Over 6 years and 32 million cells in the making, the complete adult mouse brain cell-type atlas reveals astonishing diversity and regional specificity.

A new review paper led by @mj_dahl, Agnieszka Kulesza and @WB_Markus. We review how deficient #dopaminergic and #noradrenergic modulation of hippocampal plasticity may contribute to memory loss in aging and Alzheimer's disease https://t.co/RnIT0PVCp3 #locuscoeruleus
🚨In our latest preprint🚨 we propose a radical change to the analysis of rodent #behavior in preclinical research.

@MathiasVSchmidt@BohacekLab To expand on johannes's answer, the literature indicates that our target genes seem to be regulated by cAMP and consecutive CREB activation.
🔵 In 2016 I wrote a grant, in which @MattiaPri and I asked a simple question:
Stress triggers massive transcriptional changes, which of them are dependent on noradrenaline (NA) signaling?
Today, we have the answer. But boy was this a journey. 🧵👇

New Nature paper provides evidence that science has become less innovative since the 1950s. The authors suggest reversing the trend by:
1. reading widely,
2. focusing less on quantity of papers, & more on research quality,
3. taking year-long sabbaticals.

NEW PREPRINT FROM THE LAB📢📢: Locus Coeruleus firing patterns selectively modulate brain activity and dynamics! 3y in the making and this work is finally seeing light thanks to a fantastic teamwork! C Grimm, S Duss and @BohacekLab. Short thread ⬇️ https://t.co/ldeBmMAQb5
