Our preprint has now been published @CurrentBiology with a few new elements, thanks to 3 great reviewers! Check it out!
In brief: The hippocampus is required for cortical (V1) plasticity elicited by visual sequences but not individual grating stimuli.

Excited to finally share some of my postdoc work in which we investigated the role of hippocampus in visually-induced long-term V1 plasticity. Featuring Mark Bear and appearances by @robkomo81. 1/5
@MJJRAS@CDelawalla 1) guys like this actually exist
2) prestige seeker? you list yourself as 8 different "-ists" in your bio and include PhD in your name
3) what do you know about professional licensure in Georgia? In plenty of jurisdictions you can practice as a licensed therapist with a Masters'
Amazing day for my first tweet. Super excited to share my PhD research, published today @Nature.
We find that contrary to popular belief, cortical reactivations predict the future rather than reflect the past.

@JohnStreicher1 Here, let me fix it: here's $ one university charges PIs for the privilege of having a student help w/ their research. Lucky PIs find students interested in pursuing the projects for which they've managed to obtain support funding.
Proposed research isn't contractually binding.
@CarcelMousineau@Broloccini@AprilEngelberg@trainguy89 Usually they don't put the 'sidewalk closed' sign at the intersection where there's a crosswalk. So you're halfway down a block before discovering that the sidewalk is closed. Most people just walk into the road, which disrupts traffic and is dangerous for all.
Bigger setbacks!
@alisatweetsmore @SmallsCreek@Metrolinx@GOExpansion They're currently laying gravel down to the creek on the south side of the tracks adjacent to Williamson after about a year of inactivity. Presumably to finally finish the culvert and retaining wall?
It's been so long, I'd started to think Metrolinx had revised their plans..

@ppyajunebug@mbeisen On top of everything else, you have to be a terrible scientist to confidently conclude tokenism when observing a few women moved to the front of a group photo.
No nucleus? No problem! No DNA? Who cares! Histones? No need! Read our @biorxivpreprint on #Transgenerational Epigenetic Inheritance in animals that transmit to their progeny their cytoplasm but not their nuclei- Small RNAs are doin’ it for themselves!🧵 https://t.co/yoKNmcpxjU
Cholinergic input to mouse visual cortex primarily signals a movement state signal, with virtually no activation in response to visual stimuli or prediction errors. https://t.co/4QkEUvQUj5
@VitalyGanusov@mariam_s_aly Mariam's threads didn't leave much room for ambiguity, man: she clearly feels like she deserves to be put up for tenure by her dept. It's inconceivable that anyone who knows her record could disagree.
