Are you interested on the evolution of neuronal circuits, the functional interaction between neural circuits and glia, or brain-machine interfaces ?
We have a few open positions.

We are looking for a postdoc to investigate behavioural & functional correlates in zebrafish with mutations in autism genes. Great opportunity to develop a new research direction towards studying the role of glia in neurodevelopmental disorders. Please RT elxw.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/…

Neuronal synpases onto oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) are dynamically assembled and can predetermine myelination patterns through Ca2 signaling

Spotlight: Jetter and @SD_Ackerman @BIG_CenterWashU discuss work by @xbel_tan, @c_eroglu et al. (bit.ly/3PcVlcG) which shows that δ-catenin controls the astrocyte–neuron cadherin interactions that regulate layer-specific astrocyte morphogenesis. bit.ly/470q18t

Academic folks, I am sounding the AI citation alarm. I now find in my weekly feed a *published* paper with 'facts' and 'references' that don't make sense. e.g. claims about zebrafish sleep but the citation is 100% about Drosophila! link.springer.com/article/10…
