Hey everyone, I am super excited to share my first ever preprint! A big thank you to Vidhya Rangaraju, PhD for her unwavering support and also to the whole team. Thank you Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience. It has definitely been a great start to 2023! :) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Had so much fun presenting a poster at #sunposium23 !! 3 amazing days of listening to science from the pioneers in the neuroscience field. Thank you Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience for the opportunity! ♥️ Can't wait for the one in 2025! :)





#Astrocytes, #epigenetics, #olfaction all in one exciting talk by Debo (Debosmita Sardar)! What a great way to kick off our NeuroMEETS #postdoc seminar series. We are still accepting applications for our #PhD student series this spring... mpfi.org/science/max-pl…


Congratulations to Vidhya Rangaraju, PhD, who was awarded the CZI Science Ben Barres Early Career Acceleration Award! This support will enable her lab to utilize novel approaches to uncover the causes of mitochondrial dysfunction in #ALS. Learn more: mpfi.org/mpfi-researche…


Thank you Chan Zuckerberg Initiative for the Ben Barres Career Acceleration Award! With this funding, my lab sets on a fresh new direction to tackle #ALS, a devastating motor neuron disease. We are excited to make a difference in the fight against ALS 🧠 chanzuckerberg.com/science/progra…



Excited to share our work with Mary Phillips about 9-color calcium imaging under a GRIN miniscope! Functional imaging of nine distinct neuronal populations under a miniscope in freely behaving animals. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

A great start to 2024! I'm glad to announce that our research got published in Nature Communications . Thanks to Vidhya Rangaraju, PhD and the whole team! We found that VAP, a protein implicated in ALS, tethers dendritic mito to locally support synaptic plasticity! nature.com/articles/s4146…

✌️Our lab’s second paper is out in collaboration with the Lu Lab. We provided our expertise in imaging presynaptic ATP to show that NMNAT2, a protein implicated in axonal neurodegeneration, provides the local energy required for moving synaptic vesicles along axons.Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience

Here is a fun video we made Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience to talk about our recent publication Nature Communications. Watch out for our IMPRS graduate student Ojasee Bapat speaking about her experience working Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience .

🎬Wrapping up the week with a new preprint from the lab! In this collaboration spanning in vitro and in vivo models of rodents and flies, we show when mitochondria do not clear out calcium quickly, they enhance memory formation Jaime de Juan-Sanz Anjali Amrapali vishwanath @rfan830831 @riyaneuro

So glad to see our work in The Scientist 🎉💃

Excited to share my first paper from Inagaki Lab Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience! How does the “timer” in our brain control movement? We discovered specialized computational roles of the frontal cortex and striatum that implement such an action timer⏱️ biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

My lab's first paper is now out nature nature.com/articles/s4158… Check out the cool new data since the preprint work I described a while back. Excited to have this alongside the other FlyWire connectome papers. Grateful to the team! Neha Sapkal Divya S Nino Mancini

Congrats to Saaket Agashe @ NAACL 2025 for his LLM-Coordination paper being accepted to #NAACL2025 Findings! What a day for a new PhD student who just completed his first year! Two first-author papers being accepted at ICLR and NAACL, with hundreds of GitHub stars & citations already!
