New paper from the lab 🥳 @NatureNeuro The 'internal compass' can do more than tracking head-direction (HD) 👉 thalamic HD cells respond to sensory stimuli and are modulated by behavioral state (e.g. during social interactions) https://t.co/q4arkaUxDz

Nature Neuroscience - In this study the authors show that in the mouse anterior thalamus, the activity of head-direction cells is selectively modulated by sensory stimuli and by the animal’s...

🚨New preprint! We show how neuronal population activity in the head-direction system maintains its organization for… ever? Using @MiniscopeTeam, we recorded ensembles of neurons in mice for up to four months, across multiple environments. 1/9

Now published in @BrainStrucFunc !! Our immunohistochemical parcellation of human hippocampal fields DG, CA3, #CA2 & CA1 all along the head, body and tail. Includes stereo coordinates as templates for MRI segmentation. A collab with Carmen Cavada

Brain Structure and Function - The primate hippocampus includes the dentate gyrus, cornu ammonis (CA), and subiculum. CA is subdivided into four fields (CA1-CA3, plus CA3h/hilus of the dentate...
See our new preprint 📝! In collaboration with Carmen Cavada, we performed an histochemical segmentation of the human hippocampus along the longitudinal axis using Rph3a, PCP4, Chromogranin A and RGS-14 immunostaining. https://t.co/UU9WkHTfxW Much more coming soon!!

We just released a manuscript on @biorxiv_neursci in which we study the activity of grid cells in mice performing a path integration task. https://t.co/JBPu3SxRqO This is a (long) thread summarizing our main findings.
biorxiv.org
With their periodic firing pattern, grid cells are considered a fundamental unit of a neural network performing path integration. The periodic firing patterns of grid cells have been observed mainly...

New paper from the lab! We described how hippocampal assembly co-activity and temporally-compressed sequences are complementary codes that support associative and predictive aspects of memory: https://t.co/GBzFTPxKz0 With amzng @canliu18, @raly_todorova, Wenbo Tang and @azayhara

I am on the job market this year! My lab will study how the brain creates a internal model of the external world that is flexible and matches fluctuating behavioral goals. Visit my website at https://t.co/f7IZzxQrzI for more details (and videos of mice doing cool tasks).
