Great work from Aldis Weible and Amanda Stebritz, laying the groundwork for research to understand how cortical circuitry is damaged in AD, and how this can best inform behavioral gap detection measures for use as AD biomarkers. (3/3)

Delighted to share our first study showing how sound processing in auditory cortex is disrupted in an Alzheimer’s mouse model. These early-onset impairments help explain behavioral deficits that could be an early diagnostic biomarker for Alzheimer’s. (1/3) https://t.co/AM7rzJUhkS

[wehrlab @wehrlab]

We found that 5XFAD mice have early-onset auditory dysfunction (i.e. gap detection deficits). In auditory cortex, firing rates were robustly and progressively degraded as early as 2-4 months. This is long before memory, cognitive, or other behavioral deficits appear. (2/3)

DLC-Live! and Autopilot are ~release twins~ today! I just pushed v0.3.0, which includes DLC-Live integration for realtime markerless tracking and about a thousand more commits of cool stuff for ya. a thread: /1

@CogSciGirlPhD We love the Narishige PC-10. Much preferred over the P-2000 or the P-97.

3. This system is perfect for monitoring the eyes, ears, whiskers, face, and/or visual field during freely-moving behavior. We also include a ton of practical tips & tricks for building your own multi-camera headsets, along with step-by-step instructions.

1. Excited to share our new preprint, “A head-mounted multi-camera system for electrophysiology and behavior in freely-moving mice,” great work by Nick Sattler:

2. We describe a couple versions of a head-mounted multi-camera system based on tiny analog camera modules (each is 180 mg, US$23, 5 mm) and designed around an Intan headstage for high-density electrophysiology.

And can we talk about this supplemental video?

Definitely have sound ON

[wehrlab @wehrlab]

@SwannLab Yes, we have gotten from not discussed to funded. Make it better, resubmit, persevere. And try not to take it personally, it's just part of the process.

Congrats to Jonny, special guest at the DeepLabCut hackathon who helped the team bring to life real-time DeepLabCut for closed-loop tracking. This is going to be an amazing tool!

[Bonsai-Rx @bonsai_rx]

Bonsai 2.5 + real-time DeepLabCut! You can now connect live tracking to your hardware in closed-loop. Install from: https://t.co/HzZjhx18Xy, DLC GPU install instructions at: https://t.co/cPqWU1fwzw

Today we're releasing Autopilot - a Python framework for performing complex behavioral experiments by distributing them over swarms of Raspberry Pis. Let me tell you how we've rewritten what you should consider possible in your experiments /1
