Where do the dopamine hits does from? A new reward center in the brain is discovered (yes, single cell, spatial omics at work again) @ScienceMagazine

A velvet ant bite like “hot oil from the deep fryer” delivers an array of peptides that inflicts pain on insects and mammals alike.

Sex or survival—what’s more important? Excited to share our @Nature paper on how flies resolve this conflict. We found a dopamine-based filter that reduces threat perception, helping flies focus on courtship when close to mating. https://t.co/ZZ0UoKTqgn

Pls retweet! Just five more days to apply for this cool (admittedly, I'm biased) and fully-funded #PhD project in our lab! #jobalert
Have you ever wondered how memories are processed downstream of the #hippocampus and how this is affected by #Alzheimer's? We believe we may find some answers by riding all the way down the fornix to the mammillary body. Apply here for a #PhD with us: https://t.co/ilR7zId8Nu

Parallel and interfering neuronal circuits are responsible for operant and classical learning.

Avance de científicos argentinos: muestran que las neuronas olfativas reciben información de otras áreas del cerebro, como las vinculadas con contextos espaciales y esto favorece la discriminación de olores 👇 https://t.co/a4JNCwRohH

Lo observaron en experimentos realizados en ratones; el hallazgo refuta teorías clásicas sobre cómo funcionan nuestros sistemas sensoriales

Excited to uncover the mechanistic basis of feedback-driven computations in the cortex, inspired by connectomic and functional data supported by an ERC Consolidator Grant #ERCCoG. Thank you for the support @ERC_Research
Congrats to five of our researchers, including Simon Jacob and Julijana Gjorgijeva, who receive prestigious ERC Consolidator Grants by @ERC_Research. Also, Alin Albu-Schäffer is awarded a Proof of Concept Grant: https://t.co/AQSpDdf7Ix 👏 #ERCCoG #ERCGrants 📷A.Eckert

New work stemming from an amazing collaboration with @addisonwebster0 and @AUGCsoup using a combination of rabies mapping and single cell sequencing to identify a GLP1R-expressing local input to AgRP cells that curbs appetite

Thank you @KatrinVogt3 for highlight our work! Lovely piece
@Nature @crezaval @CurrentBiology The Rezaval lab @crezaval showed that increasing dopamine levels make flies love blind towards the end of courtship. The Crickmore @harvardmed lab found that decreasing dopamine levels towards the end of mating allow for better temporal integration of threat information.

At the Institut de France, to receive the 2024 Medal-Prize in integrative biology of the French Academy of Sciences. Very thankful for this distinction and particularly thankful to my team as nothing would be possible without them.

We found that if we isolate flies before they eclose, and keep them living alone, they’ll display a constellation of fearful reactions the first time they encounter other flies. Contrary to the sociable behaviors shown by flies housed in a group.
