I'm migrating to bluesky: @ennyvb.bsky.social - see you there?

New job alert! My lab ( https://t.co/fr0xyOii05) has a new postdoc / senior postdoc opening. They will be part of an exciting research supported by ERC & UKRI, studying vision during navigation. Projects range from purely computational to performing new physiological recordings.

Psychologists and neuroscientist are calling for international pressure towards immediate ceasefire in Israel, Palestine & Lebanon, respect for international humanitarian law, end of the occupation, and release of all hostages. Read & join by signing here:

Looking forward to be there!

Thanks to @_TheTransmitter for covering UnitMatch: https://t.co/8XdD6YM8dF And no need to worry: the neuron's firing rates are only used for validation, not for tracking itself! ;) Special thanks to co-first Célian Bimbard who made UnitMatch way more efficient and reliable!

👏🤩👏 #ConstanzaOnTour

All talks from the UCL Neuropixels course 2024 are available! An amazing speaker line-up covered cutting-edge tools and science related to Neuropixels. Special thanks to #IBL for their contributions. Talks: https://t.co/uRLo2faZcB More information:

I talked about this work as part of the UCL Neuropixels course 2024, which is now online here:

Only 7 days left to apply for our postdoc position! Join us in London and dissect the mechanisms of multisensory integration. Unlimited: coffee + rich tea biscuits. Severely limited: enthusiasm for rich tea biscuits. App: https://t.co/2GM77r5Anz Lab: https://t.co/tviJ7sBOOk

#Concert day is here! We're here in the beautiful @StAndrewHolborn performing a wonderful programme of songs with lyrics taken frm across works of #Shakespeare A handful of tickets available on the door + pre-concert bar from 7pm Do join us if you're free... #London

Enjoy one of many #sfn2024 parties tonight, but maybe not too much! We have an exciting line up for NANO42: "circuit dynamics across brain regions during navigation". Hope to see you tomorrow at 8am room N228, bright and early!

Registration for the UCL Neuropixels course closes on the 7th of October, so if in doubt, sign up now! It's free and online so nothing to lose!

[5/5] Now in Matlab and Python, compatible with SpikeInterface and Phy (if you want to check for split neurons!):

[4/5] Our latest addition is a tracking module that uses simple rules to determine whether a neuron is present in each recording. While some neurons appear and disappear, other neurons were tracked across months!

[3/5] UnitMatch uses only the neurons’ spike waveform to track them across many days. This works really well with high-density probes such as #Neuropixels, where the spikes are visible across many recording sites.

[2/5] Thanks to co-first Célian Bimbard, and co-authors @basal_gang, Sam Dodgson, Flóra Takács, @Pipcoen, @neurvanna, @kennethd_harris, and @MatteoCarandini, and @MSCActions, @EMBO, @wellcometrust, and @BBSRC for funding this work.

[1/5] Our paper “Tracking neurons across days with high-density probes” is now out in @naturemethods! https://t.co/ckPP6Bb9QR UnitMatch is a software for chronic electrophysiology that will automatically track neurons for months!

UnitMatch tracks neurons across multiple electrophysiological recording sessions. It relies on the spike waveform and allows tracking even when functional properties change such as during memory formation. @EnnyvBeest @MatteoCarandini @kennethd_harris https://t.co/Jr5SJ8b5xf

Excited for Nano42 on 'circuit dynamics across brain regions during navigation (across species)' at #SfN2024. Come check out an amazing lineup of speakers! When: October 8, 8-12am Where: MCP N228 More info:
