delighted our latest paper reached its final form - incredible job from @DrSorayaM showing with biochemistry, anatomy, slice & in vivo whole cell recordings how synaptic changes coincide with altered sensory coding in cortex of mice affected by #tauopathy https://t.co/7Uer8mwkF5

Where does Alzheimer’s begin in the brain? Our new study in @NeuroCellPress reveals that earliest changes start deep in cortical layers 5/6, selectively affecting parvalbumin interneurons via reduced NPTX2 & GluA4. Restoring NPTX2 reversed deficits. https://t.co/OJqu6Q2RTe
Excited to start my role as @britishneuro.bsky.social BNA President at #BNA2025!
Thanks @tspiresjones.bsky.social for serving as President over the last two years. A hard act to follow! Thx also for your service as Immediate Past President for the next two years. 🙏
Researchers led by Dr Claire Durrant have used living human brain tissue to show for the first time how a toxic protein in Alzheimer’s can damage synapses👏
The team hope the cutting-edge tool could help accelerate the development of new treatments👉https://t.co/VNlRkZ1CpP
🎉 That's a wrap on #BNA2025! 🇬🇧
This year's International Festival of #Neuroscience in Liverpool, UK was a resounding success, and #FENS is thankful to have been able to join alongside @EJNeuroscience Editor-in-Chief John Foxe (@JohnnyFoxe).
🧠 Over the last 3 days, we had to chance to dive into the ground-breaking #BrainResearch going in the UK and connect with inspiring and committed #neuroscientists from around the world. 🌍
Thanks to @BritishNeuro for all the fun – we're already looking forward to #BNA2027 in Belfast! 🌟
We are so excited to be taking the #BNA2025 International Festival of #Neuroscience to #Liverpool ! A city where history, culture and innovation collide - the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable neuroscience gathering. Join us https://t.co/jTz5oguKfU

Today marks the beginning of OpenRxiv, which replaces bioRxiv and medRxiv, the world's largest preprint platform for life and medical science @openrxiv
Our “Neuro-AI” paper has just been published in Cell. It describes a new deep learning-based classifier for identifying different cell types in Neuropixels recordings: https://t.co/2vfdO6pGFb
