a big thanks and congrats to everyone involved
🔥 A new study led by @KardamakisAndre lab at @NeuroAlc reveals that the brain’s ability to detect what matters in a visual scene is over 500 million years old.

The macrophages that pretend to be a neuron 🤣🤣🤣take a look at our study published in Nature and see how macrophage exert ms modulation of sensation and action via glutamate. Fantastic collaboration with @digiovannilab @LabPerrier

Fellow colleagues, I’m struggling to keep track of who is using which social network, and I can't manage multiple ones. Yet I like them to keep up to date. To help me organize myself, can you please tell me whether you now use:
29%Almost exclusively X
43%Almost exclusively bsky
23%Equally both
6%Another social network
35 votes • Final resultsI have no words.... I didn't know him so well personally, but I know how much he pushed forward his field but also Neuroscience in France, and in particular in Gif/Saclay. We all owe him a lot.
We grieve the passing of Dr. Yves Frégnac.
Yves has shaped the study of cortical processing and plasticity. He heralded interdisciplinarity and was one of the founding fathers of our institute.
Our thoughts go to his family and to his friends in the community and beyond. xitter.cf/NeuroPSI_saclay/status…

Check out this new study on the role of inflammation on the regenerating of Xenopus retina by @MurielPerron and collaborators!
Our latest study is out in @ScienceAdvances! Age-related differences in the inflammatory microenvironment account for the striking variation in 🐸 Müller cell proliferation after injury across developmental stages. science.org/doi/10.1126/scia… 👇
