Join @drmichaellevin and me for an unscripted debate about AI in science - this Thursday! 😎

The Lin Lab is hiring! We're seeking motivated postdocs for projects on voltage imaging and optogenetics in the brain. If you're excited about using new methods to undersatand and correct brain diseases, working together with other neuroscience labs at Stanford, drop us a line!

Wrote a review on voltage imaging at the invitation of Neurophotonics, with @UrsLucasBoehm and Zeguan Wang. This method transformed how you see neural activity in small animals, but it is still somewhat exclusive. Hope this helps break the barrier. spiedigitallibrary.org/journ…

What’s going on here? @mleptin

Joint junior faculty position in Computational Neuroscience, split between Ctr for Computational Neuroscience at @FlatironInst and the CUNY Graduate Center @GC_CUNY. Application deadline: 16 Jan 2026! simonsfoundation.org/flatiro…

See you in Florida in March! @MPFNeuro #Sunposium2026

How do brains make decisions and why does this matter for human health? John Fox and I discuss this here on the latest episode of his "Neuroscience Perspectives" podcast. youtube.com/watch?v=-UeC-DwJ…

Inbal’s and JJ’s 2025 paper on the topographic variation of cell-type function made it into a very exclusive list of highlights of remarkable science published in Nature! nature.com/articles/d41586-0…

Fascinating @ScienceMagazine article on magnetosensing and its unexpected ties to mechanobiology. A pigeon’s semicircular canal in their ears, long regarded as a fluid-filled labyrinth that acts as a kind of gyroscope for orientation (much like our own) - is receptive to weak electromagnetic fields, activating evolutionary conserved brain circuits for motion and spatial orientation. What other tissues are covertly multiplexing multiple streams of biophysical information to regulate health and behaviour? Link: science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Behind every great scientist is a mentor who believes in them. IMPRS faculty @sarah_stern shares how curiosity, a supportive environment, and happy trainees are critical to push forward science. Looking for a PhD program that values discovery and people? buff.ly/uzUvhYg

New paper alert! 🔥 By developing engram-specific epigenetic editing tools, our new study provides the first causal evidence that locus-specific epigenetic modifications are necessary and sufficient to drive memory expression. And that irrespective of the memory phase! 🧠🧬
