Ever observed a displaced retinal ganglion cell and wondered what’s going on? 🤔 https://t.co/TXT5OvtV3K

Thank you so much, @MatteoSpinelli_ , Alejandra, and all coauthors, for all your efforts ❤️

3/ Our findings suggest that horizontal cells align the spatial structure of receptive fields in postsynaptic neurons with the visual scene properties from ground to sky.

2/ These interneurons, horizontal cells, show regional specializations, with gradients and asymmetries in density, dendritic tree size, and functional coupling via electrical synapses across the retina.

1/ Our new preprint provides insights into the amazing complexity of retinal architecture, highlighting how distinct features of the first inhibitory interneuron of the 🐭 visual system are tailored to the visual environment. #warpedretina

Alex and Tim from our Dept. of Neuroethology are on their way to Cold Spring Harbour to talk about their studies on the fascinating transparent 🐟 Danionella. Don't miss Poster Session 1 on Thursday! More about the group's research https://t.co/eFBMwtsonj #zebrafish @CSHL

How are neurons activated by sensory stimuli? For the past century, the only method for addressing this question has been neurophysiology.

Monday I'll be giving an online talk titled: "The melanopsin mosaic: exploring the diversity of non-image forming retinal ganglion cells". Come and learn about regional specializations of retinal neurons. @worldwideneuro

Student2 performed countless recordings to hit a displaced cell located in the proper spot on the array. Reviewers, *please* choose words wisely when you think results are inconclusive. Otherwise your comments can be devastating after students have invested years of hard work 🙏

Rev2 finds the data „limited“ and „somewhat preliminary“. Student1 counted 100s of thousands of cells and traced dozens of them through difficult 🔬stacks while …

💪🥳

Main findings are fantastic. But the concentration along the horizontal midline is a neat little feature, too, which I hope is getting enough attention 🙂

Excited to share that I will start as an Assistant Professor in the Dept of Ophthalmology & Visual Sciences @MoranEyeCenter (@UofUMedicine), in January 2024. My lab will focus on retinal functions and diseases. Recruiting soon. DM me, retweet, share:
