Ok, fellow scientists. We never had a very strong presence on this platform- yet, enough is enough. Science is impartial to politics. Our lab is an inclusive and open-minded organisation and will remain as such. This isn't compatible with X and its leadership any longer.

Neocortical and defense circuit people ready for wetlab work! Results will follow...

[Silvia Rodriguez-Rozada @SilviRoz]

A few months ago @KarlDeisseroth & team achieved a huge milestone in the cardiac opto & interoception fields!
I enjoyed highlighting this great work at @sigtrans_sttt with @CircuitsLab & @StefanFrantz @Uniklinikum_Wue
Exciting times for 🫀/🧠 research!

[DefenseCircuitsLab @CircuitsLab]

Excited about our joint lab retreat with the Letzkus Lab next week! Let's see what happens if you throw together a bunch of cortex and brainstem people!

[DefenseCircuitsLab @CircuitsLab]

Congratulations to Dr. Sara! You. made. it. possible. We will miss you!

Think animal research is essential in biology/medicine? Then say so! Following a massive citizens initiative, European Parliament is about to discuss a complete ban. This is real. Please support our pledge: https://t.co/FhwvvdmwXH
