#icn2024berlin people!
for new fly vision work from our group, please visit our 2 posters on Thursday:
@PaveeSeeni PS2.241 - Visual Projection Neurons
@sanna_koskela P2S2.224 - searching for the optomotor pathaway(s)

[Michael Reiser | michaelreiser.bsky.social @MichaelBReiser]

@BWJones Mine had the same problem! I put a towel over the sink and it stopped!

[Michael Reiser | michaelreiser.bsky.social @MichaelBReiser]

@casa_tuthill @colbertlateshow Congrats John, Brandon and team! You deserve all the accolades!

📢 pls RT: just > week to apply for a T/TT group leader position with a #connectomics focus! The LMB is a wonderfully supportive place to grow a group with genuine commitment to enabling long-term research with long-term impact. Please share / contact me. #neurotwitter #STEMJobs

[Michael Reiser | michaelreiser.bsky.social @MichaelBReiser]

@gsxej sorry about missing the date of this original post -- twitter/X is nearly unusable these day, with good but old tweets showing up boosted by a combo of real and fake accounts...ugh!
that job sounds amazing!!

[Michael Reiser | michaelreiser.bsky.social @MichaelBReiser]

Strongly recommend!!
@gsxej is a visionary!
This is a wonderful opportunity to work with wonderful people on incredible data.

[Greg Jefferis @gsxej]

Would you like to shape the future of connectomics ... even neuroscience? Fresh from finishing the two largest connectomes ever, we have post-doc and research assistant positions in the @flyconnectome group @CamZoology (collab w @MRC_LMB @ScottishWaddell @janeliaflyem) Pls RT 1/4

@TessaMontague @shaish0 Finding a dvd read/write drive might be tricky these days!

[Michael Reiser | michaelreiser.bsky.social @MichaelBReiser]

@TessaMontague @shaish0 One benefit of middle age is remembering when we were constantly burning DVDs! If you already have presentations or YouTube vids w content you like, there are reasonable tools for turning YouTube vids into mov or mpgs (let’s say legal?), even simpler to turn ppt into movie.

[Michael Reiser | michaelreiser.bsky.social @MichaelBReiser]

@anna_stoeckl Thank you Anna! We are excited for you to dig.

please consider scanning our latest manuscript from Arthur Zhao (@whoisthecell), which is essentially a love letter to the beautiful Lobula Plate Tangential neurons in 𝘋𝘳𝘰𝘴𝘰𝘱𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘢, many years in the making: https://t.co/HnF6k0FTVW

[Michael Reiser | michaelreiser.bsky.social @MichaelBReiser]

@whoisthecell of course this was a huge team effort lead by Arthur, including Aljoscha Nern, @sanna_koskela @DreherDesign @MertErginkaya Judith Hoeller, @ratecoding @dddavi Eugenia Chiappe, and others!
