Our preprint of my PhD’s work w/ @InAnOther is finally out on BiorXiv: https://t.co/GkzSCldCcO, and I’m so excited to share it! If you’ve ever wondered about reconciling engram manipulation experiments and neuronal activity during encoding, you’re on the right thread! 1/14
@neur1s@InAnOther Yes ! For sure some neurons "appear" in the miniscope FOV, and they might also be activated offline before that. I suppose you'd have to find new neurons coactivating with putative engram neurons during offline period (incl. sleep?), that would be a cool paper as well 😋
Too many people are still only on twitter, so I double-posted this thread, but please please please find us on BlueSky: @clementpouget.bsky.social and @gisellavetere.bsky.social. Any comments on this work are greatly appreciated, let’s make science participative!!! 14/14
Finally, science wouldn’t be fun without friends, so big shoutout to everyone in the lab (https://t.co/yprjn847jl) who either participated directly in the project, or helped by being the best of friends, Flora, Nadja, @garcferpablo, Nina, @liviautore, and so many others... 13/14
🎉 Huge congrats to the new Dr.@NeuroPouget, who just defended his thesis uncovering new insights about the engram and much more! You've been inspiring and unique throughout this journey, and I couldn’t be prouder. Can’t wait to see the amazing research you’ll lead in the future!
