Our review on Evolution of central neural circuits is out in @Nature Reviews Neuroscience! We hope this will be an enjoyable read for the experts and a good resource for those interested to learn more about how brains evolve. 1/2 https://t.co/dD148TEkri

First two talks for me at #SfN24 were two excellent ones on neural cell fate, diversity, and evolution, by Corey Harrell and @neuroluci. Dev Bio looks strong here !

Outstanding work by @neuroluci from @TheCrick on the evolution of behavior through plasticity of the nervous system across development. #SfN24 @SfNtweets

Looking for a PhD position in comparative connectomics? Apply for a joint-supervised position, with myself and @neuroluci. The aim is to understand how circuits evolve by comparing whole-brain connectomes of fruit fly species. Apply for Project #2 here: https://t.co/66aCUopfNE

pay attention please, all of those who have done functional genomics courses with me and @pamcafrica and @TReNDinAfrica - if you have significant genomics experience then these are a great opportunity for you

Congratulations to group leader @neuroluci who will be working with @giorgiogilestro from @Imperialcollege to study the evolution of sleep 🥳 Congratulations also to satellite group leader Pietro Fratta @FrattaLab from @UCL whose project will explore neurodegeneration 👏

So excited to be a recipient together with @giorgiogilestro of one of these @cziscience grants to study the evolution of sleep!

Prospective PhD students, amazing opportunity here! Exciting science and a wonderful supervisor 👇

Today, we are announcing Future House, a philanthropically-funded moonshot focused on building an AI Scientist. At Future House, our 10-year mission is to build semi-autonomous AIs for scientific research, to accelerate the pace of discovery and to provide world-wide access to

Want to hear about #openscience in Africa? Want to learn about how to use your #academic 📚 skills for a good cause? Some of our volunteers were at the ERM in #tübingen yesterday and will be there today. Come find us! 🌍🔬 #erm2023 #globalresearch

Also a shout out to my incredibly supportive mentors @taponlab and @AndreasTSchafer

Deeply honoured to have been elected a Vallee Scholar. Very grateful for the fantastic support of @TheCrick and to the amazing people in my lab. Excited for the journey ahead and what @TheValleeFdn will help us discover!

Amazing lab and exciting projects! Apply!!

We are looking for two postdocs to join our lab to work on NIH and NSF funded projects related to structure/function of neurogenesis and neural circuits in the nudibranch Berghia using scRNAseq and EM connectomics. https://t.co/M8mhO1CAsY
