We are back bigger and better than ever for @Aus_ScienceWeek 🧠🔬����
Keep posted over the coming days to hear about our absolutely stacked program! Featuring talks from world renowned scientists and interactive booths. This is one event you don’t want to miss!
Imagine a lipid marker for learning and memory... Imagine a tangible link between cognitive and motor functions... and dysfunctions. #Biology#Microscopy#neuroscience@QldBrainInst@AusNeuroSoc@SfNtweets
Excited to share our new release! Wish us luck😉

Introducing Leena!
Leena is a second year PhD student in the Neural Coding lab, Eccles Institute of Neuroscience, ANU (@JCSMR). She is the ACT rep for ANS 2023. Her research focuses on the role of sensory channels in central processing of signals.
Evidence showing the importance of exercise for healthy brain function seems to be growing every day at the moment. Love these podcasts from @QldBrainInst
#QBI researcher Dr Tara Walker has dedicated her time towards discovering how exercise benefits our bodies, including our brains.
Listen to her discuss this and more in the latest episode of A Grey Matter podcast.

A huge congratulations to clear vision PhD student @NickBariesheff for winning best poster this evening at @iserworld#iser2023.
You’ve done the lab and @ourANU proud! 🥹
On behalf of @ourANU, A/Prof Anne Bruestle from #OHIOH received @MS_Australia 50 Years President’s Medal.
The Medal acknowledges the University's contributions to the MS community and efforts towards a world without #multiplesclerosis. Read more at https://t.co/pDMiy8zzZq
I’ve made this video as an intuition pump for the density of #synapses in the #brain. This volume ~ grain of sand, has >3.2 million synapses (orange cubes). Peeling them away leaves only inputs on 2 #neurons. Zooming in, we see the synapses localized to the dendritic spines.

@PhDVoice@PostdocVoice Had a baby, raised said baby to a now nearly 3 year old, battled through all the fun and games of covid restrictions, fought the proposed closure of our whole institute (and won!), made friends for life!
It’s almost time to Reconnect the Network^2 in-person at our Annual Scientific Meeting in Naarm/Melbourne!
The LOC are putting on the finishing touches (aka frantically running around) to the most memorable meeting ever!
Here are some of the things we have in store for you 👇🧵
Next is Phyu!
Phyu is a final year PhD student at the Bekkers lab, Eccles Institute of Neuroscience, ANU (@JCSMR). She is the ACT rep for ANS 2022. Her research focuses on studying the roles of ion channels in the firing properties of neurons in the piriform cortex.
Congratulations to all of the @JCSMR Hons students who gave their final presentations this week, including our own @bebby_scientist. Lots of interesting discoveries from this cohort!
In our first session of the day, some fascinating research presentations on cellular and molecular neuroscience by PhD students Leena Amrutha @AmruthaLeena and Wricha Mishra 🧠👩🔬
