New paper out in PLOS Computational Biology!
We introduce iSTTC, a robust method to estimate intrinsic neural timescales from single-unit recordings.
Congrats to Irina Pochinok for leading the project!

Spikeling v3 feature reveal : a new module ! After current clamp, voltage clamp, calcium imaging, we are implementing an extracellular tetrode recording module ! #Neuroscience #CalciumImaging
So grateful someone fished out this piece of genius from 8 years ago.
Excellent opportunity!
1/7 🧠 My journey into development begins with this work and question: how does the brain's spatial navigation system develop? We found that the neural networks for spatial navigation (tori and rings) are preconfigured and only later anchor gradually to the world with experience! 🧵
If you are a PhD student or post-doc who wants to learn everything about #electrophysiology or #imaging, consider registering to the Paris Spring school in optical imaging and electrophysiology, that will take place in the center of Paris 11-23 May 2026. Application deadline Feb 2nd

I'm unclear to me whether the wine drinking started as soon as the pensioners left the supermarket, like when people start eating the baguette the second they exit the boulangerie

Cannot believe that week one of the @cpw-liverpool.bsky.social is nearly over! A brilliant week so far! Thank you to everyone who has contributed so far, especially to the @biologists.bsky.social for their funding of our 40th workshop!
Do you have experience turning amateur data analysis scripts into robust, scalable code? I’m hiring (hourly pay) to professionalize Python scripts for scientific data analysis, making them reusable across multiple datasets.
Tromsø/Norway-based candidates preferred, but all are welcome! DM me!

The Commission is pushing for a massive increase in funding for Horizon Europe 2028-2034. If I understand correctly, Pillar I, which includes @erc.europa.eu and Marie Sklodowska Curie fellowships, would go from the current €25 billion to €44 billion. Let's hope it happens!
We are hiring! We have open PhD and postdoc positions in Bern. Join us to study sleep/wake circuits, and/or auditory functions with iEEG/EEG #iEEG #Neurojobs
