Come check out our posters on Wednesday afternoon Society for Neuroscience (SfN)! Excited to be in person again 😀


Looking for neural data to analyze? You can find our electrophysiology and imaging data sets (+code/methods) on our lab website! Thousands of neurons, mostly from medial entorhinal cortex and hippocampus, recorded/imaged in behaving mice #openscience giocomolab.weebly.com/data-code-meth…








The Shuman Lab at Friedman Brain Institute is looking for new postdocs! With new funding💸 and students graduating🎓we now have 2+ postdoc positions open in the lab. We use in vivo recordings and manipulations to investigate memory circuits and how they go wrong in neurological diseases.👇



Our eLife - the journal paper on artefactual Ca2+ waves following calcium indicator expression is highlighted in neuroscience magazine The Transmitter. Really nice talking with Angie Voyles Askham and seeing the perspectives from trent, @DanielDombeck & LoogerLab thetransmitter.org/methods/widely…



1/ 🚨 Thrilled to share the final version of our paper in eLife - the journal! Both LC & VTA pathways release dopamine in CA1, but how might they uniquely modulate CA1 activity? Using VR, we imaged these pathways in mice to uncover their distinct roles. doi.org/10.7554/eLife.… #Neuroscience


Donald Hebb’s theory—memorably summarized as “cells that fire together, wire together”— does not explain the shifting hippocampal connections that occur in mice as they learn to navigate an unfamiliar virtual environment. By Sydney Wyatt thetransmitter.org/memory/learnin…
