Paperback edition of Wild Air is published today! Many thanks to all those who have read it & to @4thEstateBooks for making this happen and for this beautiful jacket.

This week we're running a pop up Baby Lab alongside showings of First Light as part of @brightfest .

First Light was inspired by Baby Lab research into the development of vision and we've loved seeing how it's turned into a performance piece for babies! 💡👶🎭

I am excited to share that our preprint “Nutritional state-dependent modulation of Insulin-Producing Cells in Drosophila” is now available on BioRxiv. A thread🧵 https://t.co/a2g5enD0Oi

[Kit D. Longden @TheFlySide]

For 6 million mitochondria in ~21000 neurons of ~5500 types, their location, morphology and distance from synapses with analysis by cell type, synaptic connectivity and neurotransmitter.

Another great team effort. Big love to coauthors.

Enjoy X

Very excited to be giving this @worldwideneuro talk!

Good morning #SfN23 people. Our lab has 3 posters this morning (Sunday Nov 12) and 2 tomorrow morning (Monday Nov 13). We'd love to see you and share our latest on fly vision, circuits, and behavior. @sanna_koskela @PaveeSeeni @fra_loe @OmikaWad

🚨There's still time to apply for an open position in our lab for someone into large-scale data analysis of brain activity, coding & open source code development. We are also looking for an 🥼 experimentalist to join the team. Happy to chat about the open roles at #SfN or via DM

Does reward affect vision? We found neurons in mouse superior colliculus that increase their visual responses after reward. Read more about it in the lab’s first paper with @IntoNeurons and @allemanjm: https://t.co/BUYARFC9Ra #tweeprint (1/7)

[Sander Liessem @LiessemSander]

Interested in how the metabolic state and modulatory inputs affect Insulin-Producing cells? Discover their modulation at this years #SfN2023. I will present the work of @rituja14 , @TinaHeld4 and colleagues from the #AcheLab @jan_ache. Come find me today at Poster HH11@SfNtweets

[Michael Reiser | michaelreiser.bsky.social @MichaelBReiser]

Finally able to share this incredible story, years in the making! We’ve been looking for the neural pathways that detect patterns of visual motion resulting from body movements (aka optic flow)…and we found some super interesting new ones!

Wild Air is published today 🪶

Thank you to everyone @4thEstateBooks for all their work on the book. And to the late Norman Arlott for his beautiful illustrations.

It was a privilege to spend time observing these fascinating birds - and I hope you enjoy reading about them.

We have here mhc-gfp on third but not mhc-lex

Big love to you x

Ever wondered what amacrine cells do for colour processing? The answer may surprise you! Find out more in our new @bioRxiv with @XinweiWang1017 @PAR_EyeMath @TaYoshimatsu @Neonsynapse

Jewel wasp #Nasonia circadian entrainment depends on light intensity and colour, perceived by a colour-opponent circuit downsteam of the eyes and ocelli - the latter include a red! receptor. Happy to have worked with @senz497. Fresh in PRoySocB https://t.co/YlvCcw4AYF

Does anyone know how to fix access errors to #ERIS @ERC_Research? I get an 'invalid user' error and reaching out via contact form throws yet another error. Unfortunately, I can't find any direct support contact information for this advanced analytics tool.
