Can hardly wait for my first Canadian Association for Neuroscience meeting 🇨🇦🧠!!! Also, check out the insane lineup of speakers I get to present with at the Neural Circuits and Behaviour satellite meeting. I AM STOKED!
beautiful work - congrats ciaran and team!!
yeahyeah congrats andrew!!!
A huge thank you to our sponsors to make this possible: @dmcbrainhealth.bsky.social, SickKids Neurosciences and Mental Health, @kbi-uhn.bsky.social, @ubc-gc2.bsky.social, and SickKids Garry Hurvitz Centre for Brain and Mental Health (who have kindly also supported our $500 best trainee talk prize!).
ooooo the coveted murphy-royal bump!! thank you!!
This satellite is a highlight of the @canacn.bsky.social meeting. Looking like another excellent lineup!
Registration for the @canacn.bsky.social 2026 Neural Circuits and Behaviour satellite meeting is now live! Looking forward to hosting this event with @franklandlab.bsky.social again, and we're looking to have 4 trainee talks as part of the satellite. Register at www.eventbrite.com/e/1984146883...
New paper alert! 🚨
We found that the brain's compass is remarkably stable at two scales
1️⃣ the system maintains its internal organization for weeks
2️⃣ It "remembers" its orientation for weeks, even after a single visit
This may be key to how the brain aligns its other maps.

Our super exciting group of PI speakers features Tuan Trang as our keynote, along with Bénédicte Amilhon @arrudacarvalho.bsky.social @caromenard666.bsky.social @zachtpennington.bsky.social Anna Phan @rrrozeske.bsky.social and Stuart Trenholm. Registration details to follow in the coming weeks!
Save the date for the annual "Neural Circuits and Behaviour" satellite conference at the Canadian Association for Neuroscience annual meeting, cohosted by @franklandlab.bsky.social and myself on May 18, 2026. We have a great speaker lineup and will be selecting 4 trainees talks from our registrants!

congratulations keri!! wonderful news
this is an absolutely fantastic review at the interface of emerging biological principles, neuronal/network computation, and statistical physics (among other disciplines). huge congrats to @rgast.bsky.social and co-authors for this great cross-disciplinary synthesis for the field
With many new neurotechnologies, only about five percent of experiments yield significant results.
excited to have you make it official!! happy holidays milan
congrats matt!!
Scientific program chairs @rcbagot.bsky.social and @markcembrowski.bsky.social have put together a great program: can-acn.org/meeting-2026... - Now is your chance to contribute also!

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.

incredible visit from @cannabrain.bsky.social here at @dmcbrainhealth.bsky.social - super intriguing findings on the BLA and stress. also apparently he has great taste in both shirts and drinks
Join Riya from @markcembrowski.bsky.social's lab for a look at a day in the life of a @sbmeubc.bsky.social Synergy Research Program student!
This summer, she studied the hippocampal-amygdaloid transition area (HATA), a brain region that may play a role in major depressive disorder.
