Why can't you remember being a toddler? Or can you?
Nice feature in Time of our lab's work on infantile amnesia at @tcddublin.bsky.social
Also of the labs of @sarahdpower.bsky.social at MPI Berlin, @franklandlab.bsky.social at Sick Kids, and Nick Turk-Browne at Yale.

If you have some time off these holidays have another look at our beautiful review on #LC neuropeptides 🔵🧠
Excited to share the latest from the lab on the molecular mechanisms of silencing and un-silencing a hippocampal engram ensemble. Was fun using a variant of the EPSILON technique developed by Adam Cohen's lab.

Congratulations to the whole team! Beautiful work!
Audiobook cover of How to Change a Memory: One Neuroscientist’s Quest to Alter the Past by Steve Ramirez, read by the author.
@okaysteve.bsky.social's How to Change a Memory is a disarmingly personal account of the new science of memory manipulation.
The #audiobook, read by the author himself, arrives 4 November.
Preorder it today: press.princeton.edu/books/audio/...

Good morning everyone!
So, I wrote a book (!!) and it’s coming out November 4th in physical and audiobook form. It’s called *How to Change a Memory*

The cost of remembering: engram competition as a flexible mechanism of forgetting.
Our new perspective piece in @cp-trendsneuro.bsky.social, lead by Ryan Lab alumni, Livia Autore. Also with Michael Drew from @utaustin.bsky.social

Beyond happy & proud to have our paper on peptidergic neuromodulation of the #LC out!
This is a project that started with naive intentions & silly curiosity, withstood 1 pandemic & 2 lab moves & made us fall in ❤️ with the most beautiful brain regions of all!! 🔵

The most important story in the world right now.

Our article “Prelimbic cortical excitatory overdrive and inhibitory underdrive accompany environmental suppression of food seeking” recently came out on @npp-journal.bsky.social. tinyurl.com/5xpd9ay5 Want to learn more? The thread is below: 1/n
Once again, many thanks to all involved in project! Those on bluesky: @katepeters3.bsky.social, @scottkinghorn.bsky.social Finally, special thanks to @moever.bsky.social and Pelle Wilbers at VU Amsterdam for a nice commentary on our article! 🙂https://tinyurl.com/yutzpuv7 14/n
Congrats to the whole team! ‘Cool’ work!
Thrilled to share new work from the lab, led by Adam Ramsaran:

Much of the Trump administration’s agenda for research is laid out in the 900-plus-page Project 2025. Nature examines science-related policies from Project 2025 that have already come to pass, and which ones might be on the horizon. 🧪
What are we talking about, when we talk about 'representations'?
My undergraduate student, Oyinkansola Olorunleke, is conducting a thesis project on the concept of representation in cognitive sciences & neuroscience.
We are seeking interested participants in the below survey:

Registration for the 10th edition of our Summerschool on 'Neural circuit development and plasticity' is open! July 7-11 in Utrecht for MSc and PhD students, and others who are interested. Spread the news! @umcutrecht.bsky.social @utrechtuniversity.bsky.social
in our new lab work, we find that:
natural forgetting & induced amnesia share common impaired neural dynamics
this work was funded by multiple #NIH grants that supported students, postdocs, & the science, all with the goal of healing disorders of memory & the brain

Congrats to the lab! Great work!
Early registration closes tomorrow:
I am excited to announce that my first first-author paper is now published in a special issue on "Deciphering the memory engram” in Neurobiology of Learning and Memory in which we describe “Structural synaptic signatures of contextual memory retrieval-reactivated hippocampal engram cells".
Wheeey finally out!
Ever wondered that if the reactivation status of engram cells has an effect on their structure? Yes? Then you should read this nice work!!
Congrats @pantheanemat.bsky.social @moever.bsky.social and all the rest to this nice paper!

The majority of people who responded to a poll in Nature say they’re now using Bluesky. They’re using it to connect with other scientists, keep up to date with other research or researchers, and promote their own research. 🧪
