Understanding the retina is crucial for decoding how visual information is processed. However, decades of data and models remain scattered across labs and approaches. We introduce openretina to unify retinal system identification. (2/9)
Try it out and help us improve the accessibility of retinal datasets and models together.
A team effort with:

Stand Up for Science!
Fort Collins, Colorado
Sign that reads "trans rights are just good science."
Sign that reads "diversity is not a dirty word"
Sign in support of vision science research
Sign making fun of Elon Musk for bragging about Ozempic being funded by science and likely using it.
A sampling of the great sings I saw at #StandUpForScience
@standupforscience.bsky.social Chicago today. Thanks to all the organizers and participants.
“ Without facts, we're really just in the dark with regard to what the consequences of our actions are ... science really gives us a way to move forward and build that prosperous future that I think we all want to see.” —Mike Wong
In today's episode, we check in on the Stand Up for Science rallies that spread to 32 cities.

My speech from #Chicago #StandUpforScience rally today. I wanted to write something that was about why I support science, not as a scientist myself, but as a citizen. This is dedicated to a dear relative, an arborist for the #NationalParkService. 🧵Photos from the rally in Chicago today by Mike Yen.
A crowd of people demonstrating outside in front of the Lincoln Memorial on a clear, sunny day. Some of the signs read “Science over Stupidity,” “Science Makes America Great,” and “Team Public Health, Not Team Measles.”
Today at the “Stand up for Science” demonstration at the Lincoln Memorial.
One of our supporters shared this with us—people are getting creative tonight!
Exciting new partnership in AI & Life Sciences announced today in Brussels

Our paper on how the neuromodulator nitric oxide modulates a subset of mouse retinal ganglion cells is finally published in @elife.bsky.social doi.org/10.7554/eLif... Great work by @dgonschorek.bsky.social together with the lab of @oliviermarre.bsky.social and @matigoldin.bsky.social, ...
Apply for your participation in the Systems Vision Science Summer School and Symposium 2025: summerschool.lizhaoping.org/application/ Application deadline is March 31, 2025. Experimental vision researchers, vision theorists, engineers and computer scientists should not miss this unique event!
Congratulations to the 2024 #HannaGrayFellows. I'd like to give a particular shout out to Jared Tangeman, who will be working with us to figure out how salamanders regenerate their retinas following injury.

Amazing!! So well deserved 🎈🚀🍀💛
Neurons of the retina are fed by a network of vessels. Here all capillaries of a tiny volume are traced and measured revealing density, width, branch structure and depth.

Interested in interneurons? Retina? Electrical coupling? Check out my first senior author paper which just went online www.cell.com/iscience/ful...

The first visual synapse, so rods and rod bipolar cells! Encoding single photon signals at the physical limits of detection.
There’s actually at least 12 types of paper in neuroscience (stolen from X), who knew?
I will talk about our efforts to train biophysically detailed neuron models at the CMC Learning Club today (2pm CET). Zoom link sent upon empty email to virtual-talk-link-request@cmclab.org. Thanks a lot @neuroprinciplist.bsky.social for organizing this!
Me, a young Black woman smiling so hard. I’m wearing my headlamp and sun hat, my white zip up is pretty dirty from being in the field. The background features a lush desert wetland and mountains.
Happy Friday science lovers! I’m Mia (@Science_Miathod on Twitter) and I’ll be your host for today.
I’m a first-year PhD student at UC Davis and just finished my MSc in Ecology. My specialty is disease ecology and conservation. Come learn about disease, deserts, and more!
Excited to share my new #preprint with @neurofishh.bsky.social and @teuler.bsky.social

Confocal microscope image of mouse retina labeled with antibodies for PKCalpha (red), TRPM1 (yellow), and 4.1B (cyan).
The retina provides pretty pictures even when antibodies misbehave. I'm calling this one "bipolars in a starry sky".
