Dream team around Inbal Shainer Inbal Shainer 🎗️ (now Assistant Professor at Technion Israel) and JJ Kappel report on 66 neuron types in the zebrafish tectum and how their transcriptional profiles are linked to function and morphology. Buckle up for a wild ride! rdcu.be/d9ChA

This week’s highlights in neuroscience [🧵5] 1. A tour de force from the Baier Lab MPI for Biological Intelligence 🇮🇱 to map molecular phenotypes to function in the optic tectum. Takeaway message: molecular codes matter but only when combined with developmental trajectories and topography nature.com/articles/s4158…

For the baby who never had a birthday. For the little Batman. For their Mom.

I am very proud to announce that my PhD paper finally came out in Cell! In this *very* collaborative study, we develop and release a deep-learning approach to predict neuron type identity from their electrical signature. doi.org/10.1016/j.cell… 1/16 🧵

והחדשות הן... אנחנו

Congratulations to Yael Iosilevskii, David Hall and Menachem Katz for the paper descibing a sexual dimorphism in a pair of sensory neurons in C. elegans and a unique male mating function. pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

בואו לבקר אותנו היום ביריד המעבדות של IMRIC Faculty of Medicine - The Hebrew University בעין כרם בין 12:00-13:00!

65 years after Lettvin’s bug detector neurons in the frog retina, we revisit how the retina drives behavior—from reflexes to prey capture to brain-state modulation New review with Anna Vlasits & Serena Riccitelli in Annual Review of Vision Science 👇 tinyurl.com/ymp3vs4d

Wouldn't it be great if we could not only image large connectomic volumes, but also completely reconstruct them? And if a whole mouse brain project didn't cost billions? With the PATHFINDER preprint (biorxiv.org/content/10.110…), we preview a future where it doesn't have to.

🧵 1/ New preprint! How do transcription factors (TFs) use intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) to find their target sites? biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #TranscriptionFactors #IDPs #SingleMolecule #Biophysics

Our latest work is out today in Neuron . Using voltage imaging, we clarified how serotonergic neurons compute action effectiveness during learning behavior. With Ravid Haruvi, Ziqiang Wei and Misha Ahrens sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

My lab was totally destroyed tonight by an Iranian missile. Nobody was hurt. Flies, plasmids, cells, equipment - all gone. Heart breaking. If during the course of the past 16 years, you have received something from my lab - please keep them safe.

Our lab at the Weizmann Institute was hit tonight by Iran We will rebuild and return 💪

We are proud to have Max Capelle's paper out on bioRxiv! He found that phototactic behavior in #zebrafish switches during #ontogeny🐟🔆Through elegant behavioral dissections, he identifies the navigational strategies related to this transition. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Thread 👇

Excited to share! Whole-brain imaging during real-time social interaction uncovers a neural signature predicting social actions and individual differences. #SocialNeuroscience #SocialBehavior #Zebrafish Imri Lifshitz ELSC Brain biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

פתחנו חמ״ל בחירות ארצי, אזרחי ולא מפלגתי שידע לאחד ולהביא ניצחון לישראל. היינו כבר מיליונים ברחובות, ביקשנו שינוי, עכשיו צריך לעבור מדיבורים ובקשות למעשים. אין חולק שההתגייסות האזרחית של כולנו בשנתיים וחצי האחרונות היא פלא היסטורי, אבל כעת דרוש הצעד האחרון. העבודה הקשה,
