Our paper by Sverre Myren-Svelstad & Ahmed Jamali, co-supervised by Nathalie Jurisch-Yaksi is now out in Epilepsia . We used photic-stimulation to identify convergent and divergent features of neural activity and behavior in multiple zebrafish seizure models. doi.org/10.1111/epi.17…

Excited to share our new publication. We present a package for modelling cis-regulatory elements in Python 3 and also the first application of deep learning to the modelling of Polycomb/Trithorax Response Element sequences. #deeplearning #polycomb #python3 journals.plos.org/plosone/articl…

Beautiful light-sheet imaging from adult zebrafish brain, cleared & imaged by our Bram Serneels, Paulo Girão & our visiting PhD student Valerie Marien from ArckensLab . You'll hear more about those shiny forebrain areas in the future from Bjørn Bredesen, PhD & Anh-Tuan Trinh ;)




Before Twitter goes down in flames, here is the annual joint-lab photo together with Nathalie Jurisch-Yaksi lab, ;) what a bright team <3



Brainy summer activities at Kavli Neuroscience: today we were treated to exciting Kavli lectures on the mathematical properties of the hippocampal code, with Yoram Burak and Alessandro Treves, presented by Soledad Gonzalo Cogno 🧠☀️




Note: I am sadly not present at #SfN2023 myself, but prof. Emre Yaksi will present our work on forebrain cell type evolution. Enjoy!


Hiring 6 #postdocs & PhDs to live out your scientific dreams! Theory-guided search for cortical algorithms w/ latest generation #Neuropixels, Mini2P & advanced data analysis at Kavli Neuroscience, with #KiloNeurons, May-Britt Moser & Weijian Zong Come join us! jobbnorge.no/en/available-j…


Come, see the work of our team at Kavli Neuroscience ! We will be at FENS Forum 2024 with 8 posters about forebrain architecture/computations & the role astroglia in seizures/epilepsy, Ahmed Jamali Anh-Tuan Trinh Yağnur Işık Çiftci Bjørn Bredesen, PhD Francisca Hinrichsen Kadir Mutlu Emiliano Jiménez Márquez


Our two labs are at FENS Forum 2024 with 14 members. I feel privileged to work with this amazing young scientists <3 Ahmed Jamali Anh-Tuan Trinh Bjørn Bredesen, PhD Emiliano Jiménez Márquez Francisca Hinrichsen Kadir Mutlu Inyoung Jeong (Jung) Nathalie Jurisch-Yaksi PercivalDgama @yagnur +Ekin, Sunniva, Mert


What a privilege and treat it has been to visit beautiful Vienna and attend FENS forum 2024 with the Emre Yaksi and Nathalie Jurisch-Yaksi labs. And I agree – what a privilege it is to work with this excellent team, as well. 😉



The best part of being a scientist is to do it together with wonderful, curious and passionate people that we work with. Here are the annual shots today of the Yaksi lab at Kavli Neuroscience and the Nathalie Jurisch-Yaksi lab at NTNU Klinisk og Molekylær Medisin , and of-course our group selfie:)
