Huge thanks to our amazing collaborators @IBENS_ENS
(Laurent Bourdieu, Vincent Villette, Jon Bradley and team), Na Ji @UCBerkeley, Brice Bathellier at l'Institut de l'Audition, and @BarnaDudok and @viajake at @bcm_neurosci. ⚔️Team science at its best!
#MayThe4th announcement: JEDI-2P was not The Last Jedi ⚔️! Introducing JEDI3sub & JEDI3hyp, the best GEVIs in this galaxy for reporting subthresholds voltage dynamics under two-photon illumination🔬#GEVIs. Check out our @naturemethods paper: https://t.co/fCuBg5bP2f
High praise to the best collaborators in the Galaxy, who deployed FORCE1s in vivo, including the teams of @WikiZong (2P miniscope), Na Ji (FACED), @IBENS_ENS (Laurent Bourdieu, Vincent Villette, Jon Bradley), and @viajake@bcm_neurosci. Contact Dr. St-Pierre for FORCE1s.
#MayThe4th be with you! Meet FORCE1s, a new positive‑going, ultrasensitive voltage indicator. Optimized for 2P imaging at slower acquisition speeds, FORCE1s is easy to use on almost any microscope. Bonus: it even powers 2P miniscope experiments!📄Preprint: https://t.co/qjsUSvb1Nd

Putting the final touches on my upcoming talk for the @CNPviralvectors satellite meeting at the @CAN_ACN conference, all while enjoying the stunning views of beautiful @CityofVancouver, my beloved home country of Canada!
Congrats to @HelenXiaoyuLu, an outstanding recent lab alum who won a @RiceSSPB thesis award 🏆! Xiaoyu is now a Scientist at @AllenInstitute and so couldn't attend. I attempted to accept on her behalf, disguised with her face on cardboard🎭, but my cover was blown quickly!
🥂Celebrating 5 incredible years with Shujuan Lai in our lab @bcm_neurosci. She's been pivotal in developing photostable fluorescent proteins and our SPOTlight single-cell screening platform. She gave an inspiring speech🎤emphasizing the power of grit in achieving dreams.
Dr. Francois St-Pierre led an illuminating session on "Advanced Concepts in Voltage Imaging" at the Optogenetics and Wavefront Shaping program in Paris. Unlocking new insights into brain functioning! #Neuroscience#Optogenetics#ParisConference 🌟
Saying goodbye to Xiaoyu Lu with a memorable lunch!🔬🤠Your success in the lab has been nothing short of amazing. Saying goodbye is tough, but we're excited for your next steps. Can't wait to see your future achievements! Best wishes, Xiaoyu! #FarewellXiaoyu
🎉 Congratulations to Shujuan Lai on her well-deserved promotion to Research Associate in the St-Pierre lab! 🙌🔬 Your dedication and hard work have truly elevated our research efforts. Thank you for being an invaluable part of our team! 🌟 #ResearchExcellence#TeamWork 🎊👏
Big thanks to Prof. Dieter Jaeger for inviting me to the Emory U. Bio seminar series last week, and to Malia Escobar for ensuring a seamless visit. Loved engaging with the brilliant grad students and faculty. Astonished by Emory's massive neuroscience network – over 120 labs!
Why would you even have a spectrometer if it wasn’t for the fact that the world isn’t black and white? To end this year on a high note, Read 𝑁𝑒𝑢𝑟𝑜𝑝ℎ𝑜𝑡𝑜𝑛𝑖𝑐𝑠' new Editorial and stay in touch😇

@weinberz Bioengineers are developing fluorescent proteins (FPs) for many applications: superresolution microscopy, photo labeling, FRET biosensors, extended timescale imaging, etc. It's great if your lab is well served by existing FPs, but we need to consider the broader community.
