🎉 Glial cells take centre stage in new international research collaboration 🎉
The project, investigating the role of #glialcells in brain circuit development, is led by #ACAR's @ed_ruthazer & Tim Czopka (@Czopka_Lab) at @EdinburghUni.

Are you interested on the evolution of neuronal circuits, the functional interaction between neural circuits and glia, or brain-machine interfaces ?
We have a few open positions.

The 2024 Visual System Development GRS/GRC starts this weekend! It is going to be a great meeting. Valerie Wallace, @jnk_lab, and I are looking forward to seeing you in beautiful Italy. Safe travels to all attendees. Use #GRCvisualsystems to tweet about and follow the conference.
Exciting new biology on a fundamental property of neurons that people haven’t paid much attention to yet!!
Congratulations to everyone involved

We are looking for a postdoc to investigate behavioural & functional correlates in zebrafish with mutations in autism genes. Great opportunity to develop a new research direction towards studying the role of glia in neurodevelopmental disorders. Please RT elxw.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/…

Excited to announce that our paper on activity- and potassium-mediated metabolic coupling between oligodendrocytes and axons is now published @NatureNeuro congrats to Zoe Looser, @zainabfaik, the whole team and co-authors for this achievement!

Neuronal synpases onto oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) are dynamically assembled and can predetermine myelination patterns through Ca2+ signaling

Spotlight: Jetter and @SD_Ackerman @BIG_CenterWashU discuss work by @xbel_tan, @c_eroglu et al. (bit.ly/3PcVlcG) which shows that δ-catenin controls the astrocyte–neuron cadherin interactions that regulate layer-specific astrocyte morphogenesis. bit.ly/470q18t

Academic folks, I am sounding the AI citation alarm. I now find in my weekly feed a *published* paper with 'facts' and 'references' that don't make sense. e.g. claims about zebrafish sleep but the citation is 100% about Drosophila! link.springer.com/article/10…
