How does the nervous system generate movement? Please find our new theory on neural motor control in this upcoming issue of Nature:.Congrats to the team and thanks to @DFF_raad, @lundbeckfonden, and @Carlsbergfondet for supporting our work. #berglabcph

Congrats!.
Happy to share this new paper from the lab in collaboration with George Augustine, characterizing synaptic connectivity between the claustrum and the anterior cingulate cortex. Congratulations to Roberto, Zach, and all co-authors! @RobertodelaTor.

Congratulations Jaspreet! This is an interesting and thorough investigation on the hippocampal theta rhythm and the effect of PPN stimulation. 👍.
Our paper on “Pedunculopontine-stimulation 🧠 obstructs hippocampal theta rhythm and halts movement 🚶♀️” is finally published!! Congrats to all the coauthors and our amazing supervisor @RuneWBerg .

In case you missed it, here is an AI-generated Podcast of our paper in Nature in 2022, "Movement is governed by rotational neural dynamics in spinal motor networks" - I must say the LLM is doing an excellent job.

Congrats Dr. Mackey 🥳🥳.
Out in this month's issue of Aging Cell. Motor neurons do better in the presence of primary human muscle cells from older exercisers vs non-exercisers.🙏@lundbeckfonden for the Ascending Investigator grant 4 years ago to see this work through.

Should domain experts evaluate a paper/grant that has paradigm-challenging ideas? Dr. Yamamoto says never because they are unlikely to do it objectively since it threatens their own paradigms. Instead, use generalist reviewers. Interesting interview:.

Science without theory is not science. It's surprising how few scientists actually know this. Here is a common misunderstanding (From Kevin McCain's book):
