Fantastic work, Koen! Great that you can finally share this last paper of your PhD work. This was a super inspiring HBP-funded @HumanBrainProj project with the labs of @LarsMuckli , @mattlark @Pieters_Tweet with so much help from all coauthors!
I’m very excited to share our latest preprint:
‘Experience-dependent predictions of feedforward and contextual information in mouse visual cortex’
biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

We have a postdoc position available in the lab, see the ad for a description of the project!
Koen and Nora's paper on Chandelier cell function in the primary visual cortex is now published in eLife! Congrats to all authors!

This publication was a collaborative effort between @kseignet from @ChristiaanLevelt's lab and several colleagues from @PieterRoelfsema 's and Maarten Kole's lab.

How does the brain implement and switch between different behavioural strategies, such as explore, exploit or disengage? Remarkably, a small nucleus in the midbrain can do it all! A new, exciting direction for my lab led by the amazing @AhmadlouMehran: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

The first cellular map of a mammalian brain is here. 🧠✨
Over 6 years and 32 million cells in the making, the complete adult mouse brain cell-type atlas reveals astonishing diversity and regional specificity.

Rogier's paper showing that astrocytic cannabinoid receptors regulate development of inhibitory synapses and critical period plasticity in V1 is now online! Made possible with the help of Yi, Sven, Hadi and Mariska.

This is a big honor and an exciting challenge! Very grateful to @Pieters_Tweet and Chris de Zeeuw for making the @NIN_knaw such a great place to do science!
Neuroscientist Christiaan Levelt will become the new director of the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience (Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences), starting 1 January 2024. Read more about it on our website 👇

Yi's paper on how ocular dominance plasticity in the thalamus and cortex influence each other in adult mice is now published in eLife: elifesciences.org/articles/8…

It is generally believed that the adaptability of the adult brain takes place in the cortex. However, a new study from Yi Qin shows that the thalamus, a relay station for incoming motor and sensory information, plays an unexpectedly important role.

We offer an exciting internship opportunity within our lab! Gain hands-on experience in imaging and electrophysiology while studying acetylcholine modulation of the developing visual cortex. Apply here: nin.nl/internships/lab-inter…

We were surprised to find how precisely connected developing neurons are! Our new study shows that synaptic inputs of pyramidal cells in the visual cortex are clustered already days before eye opening. #neuroscience #synapse #braindevelopment biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
