The Igarashi lab becomes the face of @UCIrvine !! 😍 You can find us on campus shuttles, Santa Ana Airport, and shopping centers in Irvine! You can find my grad student Yutian Zhang @YutianZhang27 in UCI video ad here: youtu.be/2whm_anxqqU

3D reconstruction of a fast spiking cell #NigroLab @KISNeuro @NTNUhelse @MBFBioscience I recently hosted a demo session on neuroanatomy for Master students and they all awed when they saw the biocytin filled patched neurons under the microscope

Imagine a 🪟 into the brain where we could see memory, imagination + decision-making in real time. Researchers @kisneuro + @TheMini2P have developed a tiny microscope that is so light we can observe completely new aspects of the living brain in action 📸 Rita Elmkvist Nilsen

Have you ever wondered why the progression of time does not feel linear? 🕰️👀 Neuropixels recording in lateral entorhinal cortex might give us a clue! @KISNeuro 👇🏽 brilliant work by Ben Kanter and Christy Lykken in our lab
Edvard Ingjald Moser@EdvardMoser18 Jun 2024
The flow of experience, expressed in trajectories of neural population activity, is discretized at event boundaries. Implications for how we recall time (and fail to). Creds:Ben Kanter, Christy Lykken, @MayBrittMoser, #KiloNeurons @ERC_Research @KISNeuro biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Event structure sculpts neural population dynamics in the lateral entorhinal cortex

Our experience of the world is a continuous stream of events which must be segmented and organized simultaneously at multiple timescales. The neural mechanisms underlying this process remain unknown....

@Nature now: Entorhinal cells can self-organize into minute-long periodic sequences that may serve as a scaffold for on-the-fly formation of new sequences. Enabled by @soledad_gcogno & a fantastic team @KISNeuro 🌹to@forskningsradet, @mohnfoundation, & @ERC_Research #KiloNeurons

Breaking: A neural template in the brain for organising sequential experiences, out in @Nature now! Discovered by @soledad_gcogno @MayBrittMoser @EdvardMoser and team: @FlavioDonato82 Horst Obenhaus, @AneLautrup @RIJacobsen @ClopathLab Sebastian Andersson nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Minute-scale oscillatory sequences in medial entorhinal cortex

Nature - Neural population activity in the medial entorhinal cortex of mice can be organized into ultraslow oscillatory sequences, with periods extending up to the minute range.

For the last lab meeting of the season we tried something new. Everybody got to present for 5 minutes about something that they are passionate about. We went from ramen to raccoons, from cheese slicers to CrossFit. It was great! #QuattrocoloLab @KISNeuro – at Trondheim, Norway

Sammen med 10 andre tidligere eller nåværende ledere av Sentre for Fremragende Forskning (SFF) roper jeg varsko for norsk grunnforskning. Stortinget må endre budsjettforslaget! klassekampen.no/utgave/2022-… @jonasgahstore @audunlysbakken @erna_solberg @EdvardMoser @MayBrittMoser

Grunnforskningen er truet | Klassekampen

Regjeringen foreslår drastiske kutt med dramatiske følger for grunnforskningen i Norge. Nå må Stortinget gripe inn.
