Shameless #SfN24 plug: if you'll be in Chicago this weekend and want to chat about estrous cycle modulation of hippocampal plasticity (read: spines, dendrites, & place cells), come check out my poster at board P9 Sunday morning! 🐭🧠🔬

congrats Ian!🐭🏍️🧠
We've gotten some good news grants recently, and now have some funded projects that are looking for postdocs to champion them.
All projects use Holographic Optogenetics to study motor systems. Especially looking ephys, optics, or systems neuro people.

I wish I knew how to computer and math. Would go just for the memes
CPAL is back 🚨🚨 Thrilled to announce the 2nd Conference on Parsimony & Learning will be hosted at Stanford University - in concert with Stanford Data Science (@StanfordData ) - the week of March 24th 2025

Our new red-shifted Ca2+ indicators are almost ready! Stop by Session 9: "Game Changers in Imaging" at the #PS38 symposium on July 25th 9AM to learn more!
Please get in touch for pre-publication access and to help us benchmark.

Reminder: there's a free, slack-like community for 2p, 3p, neuro, opto, etc.
Come and ask questions, share notes, announce meetings, jobs, ...
We just had a nice little discussion about prechirpers.

Better late than never: I’m at @SLBconference
Too many cool things happening. Forgot twitter existed.
Come see how we added optostim to the diesel2p system and help me make it better!

Experimental scientists make an art out of pulling exquisite measurements out of imperfect instruments.
@yiyi_yu used calcium imaging to make precise measurements of neural circuitry in action.

💻 LMs leveraging generative pretraining learn many diverse skills.
🧠 But what can GPTs trained on brain data learn to do?

It's that time of the year again - consider UCSB for graduate training in neuroscience. Program options are here: neuroscience.ucsb.edu/gradua…. DYNS and PBS apps are due 12/1, MCDB apps are due 12/4 (please pass this on to potential grad applicants in your network!)

Pacific Optica pacificoptica.com is a new optics company, spun out from the slslab.org laboratory @ucsantabarbara
We sell optics for multiphoton imaging, laser scanning, and other applications.

Happy #FluorescenceFriday! Here is a photo of iGluSnFR3 (glutamate indicator) labeled thalamocortical projections in layer 4 barrel cortex of a mouse (green = iGluSnFR, purple = vasculature).

A new home for ML, signal processing, optimization, neuro researchers studying low dimensional structures! Excited to be a part of this really cool new conference coming soon!
Announcing Conference on Parsimony and Learning (CPAL), a new annual conference for researchers in ML, signal processing, optimization, etc. who study parsimonious, low dimensional structures! (1/5)

Supplementary figure 5 really binds this thing together. Supplementary not extended. You really have to dig deep. But it’s worth it.
iGluSnFR3 is published! Check it out⬇️

We made a new glutamate indicator with improved sensitivity, kinetics & localization for imaging synaptic transmission.
This is #iGluSnFR3 in action detecting minis w/ TTX.
