New preprint from the lab led by Chris Puhl & @ww42 – a subset of CA3 pyramidal neurons show some surprising forms of plasticity following cholinergic stimulation. We propose that the proportion of functionally-defined cell types in CA3 is plastic. Enjoy! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Really looking forward to this, tickets on sale now!

Come tomorrow to hear how the brain folds into shape! With Dr Katie Long and Prof Anthony Graham! pintofscience.co.uk/event/folding-… You might have the change to win our brain usb flash drive! #pint22 Pint of Science UK The George Inn

Last few tickets available for tonight!

Come and see my poster at #sfn22 (abstract 4000, pres 603.02) on 16th 8am-12. We can talk all things synapse & subcellular E/I balance!

Poster alert! sally will be representing the lab single-handedly and presenting exciting work at #SfN22 on Wed 16th (am), Poster: 603.02. Be prepared for beautiful images and lovely results!

Lot of fun again on our second Pint of Science UK event tonight ⚖🧠🍺#pint23

End of a fantastic #pint23 Pint of Science UK Incredible atmosphere every night, lot of science, lot of fun🧠🍺 😁

#pint23 is over and this is how it looked in the UK ✨Thanks to our teams, speakers, and partners for making #pint23 possible and thanks to YOU, our fantastic audience - over 15000 of you✨ 🙏Please give us your feedback to help us improve! forms.gle/nNe1ffjRahv6hX…

Reusing falcon tubes, *even* if cleaning requires using a glassware washer, autoclave, and drying cabinet, is STILL >10x more carbon-efficient than using new each time (see paper for the actual life-cycle analysis: numbers calculate for ~50 reuses). Do you reuse?🧪🌎🔬

So #pint24 is over but we had a blast! Thanks Errin Roy Laura Pellegrini for kicking us off with an amazing evening on organoids!

Thanks to Аnа Dorrego Rivas and Robert Hindges for a fabulous #pint24 evening making sense of our senses!

Thanks to Sarah Marzi and Pete Harley for two fantastic talks on neurodegeneration for our final #pint24 event!

Just posted! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…. How do #neurons wire up during #development at the right time in the right place? We looked at glutamatergic excitatory synapses in the hippocampus in vivo and found an unexpected role for NMDA receptors in a very early ‘critical window’🧵

It was so much fun being a guest on Neuroverse, thanks for inviting me Carolina Soares and Clara Lenherr! If you're interested in methods to study synapses check out this episode!

Thrilled to see this work published! Led by the amazing sally, we show a tight correlation in E and I along dendrites during circuit wiring. Check it out!

Very excited to see this out! Great collaboration with FrattaLab. Fabulous work by M Keuss and Pete Harley et al. There’s something for everyone – from cryptic exons to synapse physiology and rescues by ASOs. Promising findings for future ALS strategies.
