Whiskerlab Rotterdam

Loves whiskers, the cerebellum, and probably the rest of the brain as well.

[Dr. Indrit Bègue @indrit_begue]

Your daily reminder that the cerebellum is pretty amazing.

Following 2 mouse models with #purkinje cell #degeneration, we found that different patterns of symptomatic progression in #gait #ataxia. This suggests that gait ataxia is not a gradual process, but follows stages dependent on the underlying pathology. https://t.co/z9d8fcCHjQ

And that is why we study whiskers! Great movie with @RobynAnneGrant !

What are whiskers for? How do they work? And what can we learn from them? With the help of some porcupines and @BBCIdeas, here are five things you never knew about whiskers:

@gigaseal I used to use a heating pad for a car mirror, but did not have a fancy control system.

[Whiskerlab Rotterdam @whiskerlab]

#whisking and #respiration are tightly coupled. This is one of the many reasons to better understand #neural #control of respiration.

💙🦭WHISKER WEEKEND🦭💙

Ever wondered how a seal uses their whiskers?... 🤔

Learn how our seals are contributing to science through the use of their wonderful whiskers! 🦭

Come and join us for Seal stories, whisker wonders and mask making! 😁🥳

Open 10am 💙

@MatteoCarandini As administrator of this account, I migrated myself to Mastodon (@[email protected]). Still considering whether to move the lab account as well. What did you do? I noticed more European than American people on Mastodon, but that might be my bubble.

Just out from our friends and neighbors: how the #cerebellum can contribute to left/right coordination of mouse #whisker #movements. If you have spare time: read it! And if not, try to make time to read it.

[Vincenzo Romano in Rotterdam @in_romano]

Out today in @CurrentBiology our latest work on the role of complex spikes in bilateral coordination (https://t.co/ikItr9hoES). Chris de Zeeuw RobertaMazza XiaoluWang @Peipei_Zhai @HorstAnnabel @NeuroTDJ @stafbauer @ajoshwhite @whiskerlab @erasmusmc #cerebellum #whiskers

[Laurens Bosman @LWJBosman]

Purkinje cells in the #cerebellum can change the #sensory modality they are responsive to, when the context requires so. They adapt to subjective #salience and prepare to (re)act.

My lab at the Case Western Reserve University SOM is recruiting a postdoc! Our goals are to extract the principles governing neural population activity in cerebral cortex and cerebellum, and to define how these principles enable skilled movement and break down in disease.
