My science-life journey came out to these beautiful drawings : From a teenager studying tomato🍅 in Cheongju City🇰🇷 To a postdoc studying brain🧠 in New York City🇺🇸 Thank you for featuring my story, Columbia University Columbia University's Zuckerman Institute Attila Losonczy Devin Powell Matteo Farinella

Abstract disentangled low D representations are great for generalization but are not efficient for memory storage. The hippocampus seems to increase dimensionality to fix this problem. Published in Neuron, with a wonderful team @LaraBintheBrain, Lorenzo Posani, S. Siegelbaum

Very happy to share our latest work from the Soltesz Lab co-led w/ Ernie Hwaun now online at nature. We take a deep dive into a neural activity pattern known as the hippocampal "dentate spike" and its role in cognition. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Huge shoutout to creative illustrators at Columbia University's Zuckerman Institute turning science tales into comic art. Here is my journey, spanning thousands of kilometers and enriched by great luck and the influence of countless supporters and inspiring minds!

✨It’s finally here! Happy to share our preprint where we examine interneuron subtype-specific deficits in our 22q11.2 deletion model and their collective impact on CA1 microcircuit functional connectivity. ✨

Truly honoured to be part of the The Lonely Pipette 🔥season 3 with Jonathan Weitzman and Renaud Pourpre 🦠🧬 ! A podcast helping scientists do better science, share tips and trajectories. Get inspired and feel connected to a larger community. Bianca Jones Marlin, PhD Columbia University's Zuckerman Institute For Women in Science Columbia University

Did you know that an artificial neural network is designed to mimic the brain? Inspired by biological neurons in the brain, artificial neural networks are large collections of “neurons”, or nodes, connected by “synapses”, or weighted couplings, which are trained to perform

Excited to share a news story in optics and photonics magazine about our recent work : “Reactivating spatial memories with light”

When does modular structure emerge in neural networks? What are the consequences of this structure for learning and behavior? New work with Stefano Fusi answers these questions and more: doi.org/10.1101/2024.0… see 🧵below (1/11)

Thrilled our work #SiegelbaumLab Columbia University's Zuckerman Institute demonstrating a role for the hippocampal CA2 in broader social episodic memory by establishing CA2 as a critical component of the social fear circuit is out! 1/n: nature.com/articles/s4159…

👩🏻‍💻Amazing opportunity to attend the software workshop at the Center for Computational Neuroscience Flatiron CCN Simons Foundation ! Truly enjoyed meeting neuroscientists in NYC and learning to analyze & model neural data with Pynapple & nemos_neuro . Huge thanks to the organizers!

New manuscript published! ✍️👀 Concept neurons evolve from index neurons through overlapping memories. Check it out here: cell.com/trends/cogniti… 1/15

✨ Announcing a new glutamate indicator - iGluSnFR4! ✨ Launched as a pair, iGLuSnFR4s and iGluSnFR4f have high-sensitivity and fast activation/deactivation for recording synapses. More on the indicators and what they are already revealing: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Our new paper is out in Science. What is the synaptic plasticity rule in the brain, we asked. It turns out there are multiple, even within individual neurons. Congrats Jake! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Our perspective with Bernardo Sabatini on the function of striatal indirect pathway is out! We discuss many ideas including dopamine dependent learning rule, action switching etc. We hope this can inspire new experiments moving forward! nature.com/articles/s4158…

Thrilled to share this collaboration with lead author Tamara Gedankien at Josh Jacobs and bradlega labs. Check it out the preprint:

Excited to share a connectomics dataset of hippocampus CA3. Explore the dataset: pyr.ai Paper introducing the dataset and some of our discoveries: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
