Using high-throughput sequencing, we find that the olfactory cortex connectivity is spatially structured forming triadic circuit motifs in the piriform cortex that may represent parallel, functionally distinct processing streams. @joe6783@TonyZador

How did @HopfieldJohn decide to work on the topic that led to his Nobel Prize?
"I was now looking for A PROBLEM, not a problem ... How mind emerges from brain is to me the deepest question posed by our humanity. Definitely A PROBLEM."

Paper is out! @NatureComms
Mapping dense neural projections at the single-cell level is challenging—but we tackled it with axonal BARseq, a new technique that maps long-range projections from >8000 neurons in a single brain. 🧠 @TonyZador

Thrilled to share the first preprint from the lab! We find that mouse V1 contains a three-dimensional map of visual space with different populations of neurons responding to near and far visual cues! Led by @yiran25_ with @populusalba9 and @ant_blot. https://t.co/qYig6bEnih 1/n
Why is reality so slow? Why can we only have one thought at a time? Why do we need so many neurons? Will @elonmusk's @neuralink really speed up his cognition? For answers and more questions check out our new review: "The Unbearable Slowness of Being". https://t.co/9Hl2mxEHxk
final projects and a testimonial..."a unique opportunity to break out of the bubble we live in, both mentally and physically. You won't settle for incomplete answers, you won't shy away from challenges, and there will always be someone to turn to when you need help."
OpEd in @InsideSourcesDC by @doristsao, @TonyZador and I laying out the case for support of the BRAIN initiative. On the cusp of so much, this really matters.

Our work on a one-to-one mapping between deep network units and neurons in the fruit fly visual system is published!
dynamic stimuli, interesting behavior, a full connectome, deep networks---it's an exciting time to be fruit fly modeling!

To everyone who has been shocked and depressed by the staggering 40% cut to the BRAIN Initiative: we have a voice!
Outside Witness Testimony (aka written testimony) for the FY 2025 appropriations cycle is ongoing. Deadline for the House side is Friday May 3 and the Senate side is Friday May 24.
Let's all write in with our thoughts about what this cut means for scientific progress and for medical advances to help patients suffering the most devastating neurological and psychiatric illnesses.
Please see instruction links and more information here:
