Excited to share our latest story! We found disentangled memory representations in the hippocampus that generalized across time and environments, despite the seemingly random drift and remapping of single cells. This code enabled the transfer of prior knowledge to solve new tasks

Excited to share our article, out today in @ScienceMagazine showing that competition amplifies the role of early life luck in shaping inequality in adult outcomes. https://t.co/UsV3QZ3Pyz We all have a sense that our lives are strongly shaped by contingent events outside of our

Contingency (or “luck”) in early life plays an important role in shaping individuals’ development. By comparing the developmental trajectories of functionally genetically identical free-living mice...

Kicking off the new year with our new paper in @Nature! We find that touch-guided tongue control in mice relies on a collicular mechanosensorimotor map, analogous to collicular visuomotor maps associated with visually-guided orienting in many species. https://t.co/lpC6Rw1qkc

SEEING THROUGH YOUR EYES 👁️: Excited to share our new paper (which is out now!!) with Wenbo Tang, @annabellaWulf, @ThokozileNyasu, @Madisonewolf, @antferrui @azayhara : we discovered a novel sleep microstructure that promotes memory replay! https://t.co/OuU5knRzwj 🧵 1/12👇

Check out how @karaba08 characterized a special event that balances the hippocampal network 👀
How does the hippocampus moderate reactivation following learning? We identified a hippocampal circuit mechanism which seems to play this role- and it’s driven by CA2! Check below for a summary of our recent results from this week's @ScienceMagazine

So happy for you! Can’t overstate how much you helped me through my hard times. Watch out for the amazing science that’s going to come out soon 🥳 And here’s a lovely moment after A exam:
Today I passed my A exam. Officially became a PhD candidate! Huge thanks to my mentors @azayhara @antferrui for helping throughout the journey🥹🥹🥹🥳 also my committee members @chris_schaffer and @IanTEllwood On my way to being a great scientist 👩🔬🧠😎

Second time presenting at SfN! Looking forward to hear your opinions on our recent work, with @raly_todorova & Wenbo Tang 😊
Excited to be heading to SfN and meet you all again! The AyA Lab is presenting a few posters on Tuesday morning. Come chat with us! @azayhara

Check out our work fresh from the AYA lab! Kudos to the amazing team!
Excited to share our new paper with @canliu18, Wenbo Tang, @azayhara and @antferrui about the functions of the two memory codes in the hippocampus (coactivity vs sequences) that's out today! https://t.co/5aISw060GS 🧵1/6

Exciting work by @ryaneharvey please check it out~
Do you ever wonder if the anatomical position of hippocampal CA1 neurons relates to its major cortical outputs and memory function? In this preprint, we take a dive into how CA1 structure informs function! https://t.co/zOoLSe7aqe 1/

I'm very excited about our new preprint about the downstream readout mechanism of cell assemblies! Have you ever wondered at what timescale assembly synchrony matters downstream? It's #Gamma

Cell assemblies are drawing increasing attention in Neuroscience. But one could argue that they are just an epiphenomenon. Is cell assemblies’ activity relevant for the brain? The short answer is yes. The long answer is in a preprint just online on bioRxiv. 🧵👇 1/10
