#JNeurosci: Wolf et al. monitored activity across 4 different brain regions involved in olfactory processing in awake mice and highlighted the differences in the tuning and decoding of odor stimulus identity.

6/6 In summary, social recognition memory is encoded through reinforced and distinct neural representations of the smells of familiar individuals. Oxytocin enables this memory, which serves as building block for more complex social systems.

1/6 I'm thrilled to announce the publication of our project on social recognition memory in @NatureComms!

5/6 Oxytocin is a neuromodulator that is implicated in many social behaviors. We show that it activates the AON and enables the formation of such reinforced representations.

Thank you @AchemsInfo Program Committee for selecting our symposium proposal, and thank you to our wonderful speakers @mzzakrzewska (Karolinska Institute), @davidsneurons (Central Institute for Mental Health), @DanWesson_ (University of Florida) & Noam Sobel (Weizmann Institute)

[Laurens Winkelmeier @WinkelmeierMD]

Excited to share our work on olfactory reinforcement learning @NatureComms. From mouse fMRI to single-cell recordings, have a look!

Big thank you to the KelschLAB team!

Online this week, our contribution to a special issue on olfaction (print edition out later this year)! Investigating the crossroads between olfactory circuit processing of salient, social odors in health and autism @davidsneurons @SpringerNature https://t.co/9W6UME5efQ

I wonder how the loss of the handshake and face-masks due to corona influences olfactory-guided social behavior in humans

[David Wolf @davidsneurons]

Did you know that humans sample odor cues from strangers by sniffing their hands after a handshake? 🤭😀

Very excited to share my last work in collaboration with the Kelsch group (@scheller_mf, @CarlaFilosa) on the emergence of reward prediction.

Please see our full statement on NMA's involvement with Iranian residents. We know this change to our program is upsetting news both to those directly impacted and to supporters of global science in general. We have tried to offer full transparency on it. https://t.co/qBso67Ojdy

Reading "The Computational Brain" by @patchurchland and Sejnowski (published > 25 y ago) during lockdown and finding interesting similarities to the DL framework for neuroscience by @tyrell_turing @KordingLab #neuromatch2020 👇

[David Wolf @davidsneurons]

Quite fascinating to me as someone who justs starts to read into comp. neuroscience that these ideas seem to have been around for quite some time.
