18,000 Visitors so far and a month to run! So Blue Matter, the 4 channel video I made for the CANDO project in Newcastle, in 2020, has new life and a new audience. The World is in You exhibition at the Kunsthal Charlotteborg, Copenhagen, DK is receiving a great deal of attention.
We are delighted to announce the Newcastle University Centre for Transformative Neuroscience. A new interdisciplinary research centre, and a new external identity for Newcastle neuroscience @UniofNewcastle@research_NCL @NCL_medresearch @sageimpactNCL @HaSSResNCL 1/2
Want to gain a better understanding of optogenetics 💡🧠?
Check out this public engagement talk by @KarlDeisseroth, who was a key figure in developing the field.

As efforts in implantable brain-machine interfaces progress from basic research to first-in-human studies, clinical and commercial translation will soon become reality. Read about this in our short review article in #COBIOT https://t.co/pMpYyj3NAr @adyrapeaux@imperialngni@UKDRI
If anyone happens to be in Copenhagen then this exhibition featuring work created by Andrew Carnie for our engagement project should be worth checking out.
Excited to share my work on modelling monogenic epilepsies in human brain slice cultures during the general platform presentation sessions @ILAEBRITISH@IlaeWeb conference 2021
🚨New Paper Alert🚨
'A Closed-Loop Optogenetic Platform' has been published in Frontiers of Neuroscience.
It details our open-source system for closed-loop optogenetic neuromodulation.
