For the astrocyte aficionados wondering how to extract Ca2+ data from their 2P recordings - we hope this will be useful. Fantastic work put together by Yifan Wu and Miko Dai and further improved by reviewers! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Back for another #meetthescholar, featuring Kaitlyn Dorst, PhD (she/her). Her work in the @jmaglab focuses on the neural activity involved in fear and safety learning and the cells that regulate it. maguirelab.com #science #research #postdoc #sciencejobs

🥳🍾 Thrilled to announce that I've accepted a journal's decision to desk reject my manuscript! 🥳🍾

Announcing the 2025 "Engram and Ensembles in Learning and Memory" meeting, at Trinity College Dublin. Half of speakers will be selected from abstracts submitted by trainees. Registration opens soon. Supported by NIDAnews & Institute of Neuroscience, Trinity College (TCIN)

Do you need to express Cre in astrocytes? Our GfaABC1D-Cre-4x6T plasmid is now available as a packaged virus from Addgene! blog.addgene.org/new-viral-vect…

🧠 I’m excited to share our latest preprint with Emily Stephen and undergraduate S. Oyama! We introduce a stochastic forward modeling framework to improve the interpretation of neural power spectral effects—like spectral slope—in biophysical terms. 1/ biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Astrocyte physiologists 🔬 and modelers 👩🏼‍💻!! Check out my poster at B30 on Sunday afternoon, October 6th #sfn2024 #SfN24 While studying astrocyte integration, we found and quantified a threshold for astrocyte calcium surge ✴️🌟

Symbolic dynamics bridges from #DynamicalSystems to computation/ #AI! In our #NeurIPS2024 (NeurIPS Conference) paper we present a new network architecture, Almost-Linear RNNs, that finds most parsimonious piecewise-linear representations of DS from data: arxiv.org/abs/2410.14240 1/4

I’m proud to share the exciting news that all undergraduate students from households earning $75,000 or less will be able to attend any UMass campus tuition-free starting next fall: bostonglobe.com/2024/10/29/met… @umassamherst @umassboston @umassd @umasslowell #umass #highered (1/4)

It's not a manifold unless it comes from the Manîfold region of France – otherwise it's just sparkling PCA.

⏰Glia Trainees! Submit your abstract by Dec 1st for a chance to be selected for oral presentation at GRS 2025 Glial Biology!!💥Funds available for childcare support, upon request!Reach out Violeta Durán and me with any questions! #GLIA #astrocytes #microglia #oligodendrocytes
