Our lab is interested in brain development, especially those processes of neuronal maturation which are shaped by electrical activity.

When axons regrow after injury, how do they get their presynaptic terminals working again?
Answer is: really quickly!
Out now from us in @CellReports, led by the structure-function DreamTeam that is @LorcanBrowne & @ACrespoVieira ⤵️

The Brave Little Neuron was formed by a group of friends who wanted to share their scientific #research and make #neuroscience accessible for everyone.
Look out for their workshop @EinsteinsGarden @GreenManFest on Friday.

I'm thrilled to share our preprint from the Fleischmann lab!
We find molecular signatures of ancestral cortical neurons in the mammalian olfactory cortex.

Yes! This is going to be a fantastic adventure, with @NeuroBender and @neuronJoy along for the ride too!

Had to read the email 4 times at least…but it’s official! I’ve just got a Wellcome Trust Early Career Award to work on axodendritic interactions during development, a dream coming true!
That also means that @GrubbLab and I will be working together for a looooong time 😁

Amazing job! And all achieved in the face of sustained PI laboratory 'assistance'...

Great paper, yet another proof that the fixation you use for your staining can make a huge difference: just look at figures 2 and 7!

Fantastic 'Impaired Airs' meeting @KingsCollegeLon today, superbly organised and chaired by @rowanrobo as part of the @AnosmiaHistory project. Thanks to all who participated, including @SAHowardSmith, @WillTullett, @chriskelly151 and many talented others - I learnt so much!

A #NewPI, will I ever be able to recruit an overseas postdoc? First BREXIT, then visa fees going even more insane!
99.9% of the people in my sub-field do not have a British passport!
14 Jul 2023
The UK is planning on massively increasing visa costs.
Currently a researcher looking at a 5-year Global Talent Visa, together with their partner and two children, needs to find £13.4k.
All up front. A big ask.
But that’s now slated to increase to…
**£20.9k**

The efforts and cost required for a lab member to get a visa to visit collaborators in the UK has been crazy. And it is also supremely humiliating for the applicant. Good luck with remaining competitive with such conditions.

As an academic writing coach, here are the 7 mistakes I see supervisors and PIs make in the process of co-writing a paper with their PhD students or mentees.

Synaptic elimination is essential for neural development. Our new study in mitral cells explains how neurons prune all but one type of synaptic input through synaptic competition. Open access in @Dev_Cell cell.com/developmental-cell/… (1/7)
