Here's one of our ten nominations for the Aspirational Neuroscience 2025 Award! Ding et al. at Baylor College of Medicine found that functional connectomics reveals a general “like-to-like” wiring rule. See more nominees and RSVP via our bio to join us at #/SfN25.
Here's one of our ten nominations for the Aspirational Neuroscience 2025 Award! Ding et al. at Baylor College of Medicine. Functional connectomics reveals a general “like-to-like” wiring rule: See more nominees and RSVP via our bio to join us at #SfN25.
Here's one of our ten nominations for the Aspirational Neuroscience 2025 Award! Chettih et al. show that each food-cache encodes a sparse hippocampal “barcode” orthogonal to place cells and reactivated on retrieval. See nominees & RSVP in bio. #SfN25
Here's one of our ten nominations for the Aspirational Neuroscience 2025 Award! Dorkenwald et al. map ~2k synapses among L2/3 pyramidal neurons and find a bimodal size distribution—consistent with binary strength states plus analog noise. See nominees & RSVP in bio. #SfN25
#Throwback to #AspirationalNeuroscience2023: Holler et al. showed neocortical synapse size tightly tracks functional strength—enabling synaptic-weight estimates from EM and bridging connectomics with physiology. See more winners & RSVP in bio. #SfN2025
Here’s one of our ten nominations for the Aspirational Neuroscience 2025 Award! Wright et al. show compartmental plasticity: apical potentiation from local coactivity (spike-indep.); basal needs pre–post coincidence (2-photon imaging). See nominees & RSVP in bio. #SfN25
Here's one of our ten nominations for the Aspirational Neuroscience 2025 Award! Abatis et al. show fear learning strengthens recurrent LA-engram synapses, forming an attractor driving recall (viral tagging + 12-cell patch-clamp). See nominees & RSVP in bio. #SfN25
Nominee spotlight for AN2025: Bittner et al. at HHMI Janelia/Stanford identified BTSP seconds-scale, non-Hebbian plasticity driven by dendritic plateaus that rapidly imprint CA1 place fields. See more nominees and RSVP via our bio to join us at #SfN25.
Here's one of our ten nominations for the Aspirational Neuroscience 2025 Award! Tavakoli et al. at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria developed a new technique, light-microscopy-based connectomics, to fully trace all neuronal connections in brain tissue using fluorescence microscopy.
#Throwback to #AspirationalNeuroscience2023: here's one of our six winners from Aspirational Neuroscience 2023! J-H. Choi et al. & D. Choi et al. at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology provided insights into encoding memories at a structural & molecular level.

Here's one of our ten nominations for the Aspirational Neuroscience 2025 Award! Lappalainen et al. fixed a recurrent network’s wiring to the Drosophila optic-lobe connectome, then task-optimized its remaining neuron/synapse parameters for optic-flow detection.

#Throwback to #AspirationalNeuroscience2023: Ghosh et al. and Xiong et al. at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory revealed how the brain establishes and maintains learned associations between sounds and actions through selective strengthening of corticostriatal synapses.
