(1/n) Thrilled to announce our (me + Aditya Nair ~ ആദി ) Nature paper is out! We uncovered causal evidence of a line attractor in the brain—a neural mechanism encoding emotional states like aggression. Machine learning (AI) helped us map it! 🚀🧠 #Neuroscience #AI @NeuroscienceNews

Very excited to share the first preprint from my lab! We have developed a biosensor which allows to monitor PTEN activity in living cells, tissue and even whole (small) organisms!! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

New paper w/ the brilliant Oded Wertheimer suggests a new computational framework for ASD variation, framing it as a computational trade-off between precise signal encoding and fast adaptation to changes, driven by neuronal dynamic range. nature.com/articles/s4159…

הסופ״ש זה קורה! *יריד מכירה גדול בעמק חפר שכל הכנסותיו לשיקום קיבוץ מנרה* על גבול הלבנון. סבי וסבתי היו ממקימי הקיבוץ, וגרנו שם עד שהייתי בת שנה (אז עברנו לעמק חפר). מעל 75% ממבני הקיבוץ נהרסו במלחמה, וקהילת יוצאי הקיבוץ מתגייסת לעזור לשיקום הקיבוץ. אנא שתפו והפיצו 🙏

Very excited to share the first paper from my lab. We engineered a new PTEN sensor that permits dynamic imaging in living cells. We showed that this allows to visualize PTEN activity with subcellular resolution in the intact brain. Now published in Nature Methods

New from the lab!! 👉🏼authors.elsevier.com/a/1kgT43BtfHCz… 📝Neuron We discovered that genetically-defined neuron types in the hippocampus form unique manifolds! Dual color imaging, chemogenetics and topological analysis all at once! With Julio Esparza Juan Pablo Quintanilla Juan Álvaro Gallego

Happy to share our new preprint studying the 'what' and 'where' pathways in the mouse whisker system. We train mice to identify or locate stimuli while combining wide field imaging and multi fiber photometry to capture brain-wide subnetworks. We find... biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Nachum's new book Natural Neuroscience is out! A fresh take on how brains work in the real world—well worth a read.

I wrote an Op-Ed about the government's attacks on Harvard. Please share with anybody who thinks these attacks help anybody. prosyn.org/PhWi74r?h=KyJ1…

Hour-long voltage imaging in behaving mice! Capitalizing on the high photostability and brightness of mBaoJin, we developed eFRET GEVIs, named ElectraOFF, which extends reliable single spike detection at cellular resolution beyond one hour biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

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.

This is the most Israeli thing I’ve seen. Taken at the Weizmann Institute of Science, following the Iranian attack.

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

My lab at Weizmann Institute was completely demolished by the Iranian missile a few days ago. This is hard and sad as nothing was left to save. We study heart regeneration and regenerative medicine. As such, we will regenerate, regrow and rebuild. The one thing that wasn't gone is

When we came to see our destroyed labs hit by an Iranian missile, we found that a piano had survived Weizmann Institute

On leadership & support- meet the amazing first responder team (partial) who voluntarily worked during first 12h, in darkness, smoke, and ashes, to save a building's precious frozen biological samples (most saved). No words to describe the courage and dedication of these people.

It was a rough morning, with a direct hit at our Tel Aviv apartment. The bomb shelter made all the difference. Making the trek down and up the four flights of stairs three to four times a day proved to be crucial (well...life-saving).

New blog post with a review of interesting papers on VIP interneurons in cortex and hippocampus: gcamp6f.com/2025/06/23/int… Covering some fascinating work from the labs of koenv, Yoav Adam and rudylab.

It took me more than 10 days before I could enter Ullman and climb to the burnt lab. Heartbreaking. Thankful to Weizmann Institute for helping us get up on our feet and look forward.
