Preprint alert! Auditory midbrain plasticity reflects the predictability of sound-context associations experienced by mice in a naturalistic environment, independently of reward. With a great team headed by Chi Chen. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Introducing the Allen Brain Cell (ABC) Atlas [ʙᴇᴛᴀ] representing ~5,200 newly transcriptomic-defined cell types and their spatial locations across the whole mouse brain. 🧵 Access ABC Atlas data visualization & pre-publication #openscience datasets: knowledge.brain-map.org/data/LVDBJAW8B…

Exciting new whole brain spatial transcriptomics dataset released by the Allen Institute. This will greatly aid the identification of cell types in the brain and the study of their functions, esp. in understudied areas Allen Brain Cell Atlas: community.brain-map.org/t/introducing-…

My lab is open to colleagues afected by the horrific violence. Berlin. Auditory systems neuroscience

In this JNP paper, we showed that #InferiorColliculus neuronal responses to sound modulation reflect the mouse behavioral limits very well, especially when represented in a population-based model. Follow up coming soon… #auditory #neuroscience #AmplitudeModulation

Wow😍

Very excited to announce this GRC which I am co-chairing with Mala Murthy. I also want to encourage applications from students, postdocs and junior faculty who have never attended a Gordon Conference and who interested in this topic.

Transgenic Tet- and Cre-inducible jGCaMP8m/s mice lines are now available as pre-order from JAX.  Janelia is distributing a new RiboL1-tagged line that localizes jGCaMP8s to the soma.  Check out the white paper describing all the lines and order here: forms.gle/jnmBfZdh8g7QVR…

🐭 Auditory system researchers, lend your ears 😉! @blom_kraakman & team from Aaron B. Wong lab introduce a protocol for accessing the mouse's inferior colliculus tailored for long-term, awake studies with #2photonmicroscopy & #ephys: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38156034/

Drawing on social media posts and survey responses, we examine how Hong Kong-based Trump supporters reconcile two seemingly incongruent understandings of democracy—support for Hong Kong’s democratic future and support for Trump who is often seen to promote democratic backsliding.

Gwyneth Ho, who was sentenced today in the #HK47 trial to 7 years in prison for running in a primary election has just had this statement posted on her Facebook page. It's the first public statement from her in a long time. Read it in full here: facebook.com/gwynethhokl/po…

Thanks the amazing Tzu-Lun Ohn for showing me around EMBL Heidelberg and the fancy microscope he built! It was great seeing all the great work happening.

Following her successful talk at #ARO2025 this February, my PhD student Blom Kraakman will talk at the International Multisensory Research Forum 2025 #IMRF2025 tomorrow about auditory-tactile processing in the mouse inferior colliculus. Very proud and excited about the interest!

Nice piece stressing the importance of comparative and evolutionary perspective in neurophysiology. Focus on few model species may over-represent their species-specific adaptation. Systems and circuit neuroscience need an evolutionary perspective thetransmitter.org/systems-neuros…
