Had a lot of fun teaching the first year students about the cerebellum today! Opened with the Powerpuff girls, how the mayor was absolutely useless and horrible at his job, but his assistant was essential, ran everything, and kept the town afloat. Her name was Ms. Sara Bellum. Got audible gasps!
My alma mater is hiring in behavio_u_ral neuroscienceβWaterloo ON is a fine place to live and there are some very clever folks in the Dept, strongly recommend!

The UAB Heersink School of Medicine is seeking to recruit up to 16 new research-intensive faculty as part of a major strategic investment in neurosciences. Faculty will be housed in a brand new research facility at the heart of campus, which is scheduled for completion this summer.
Weβre looking for a new Research Tech! Our research tech is heading to graduate school (very exciting!), which means weβre recruiting someone new to join our team. The position involves hands-on neuroscience research in a collaborative environment.

Mine finally arrived
when it's your turn to give lab meeting and you don't have new results to show
Up close and personal with a branching neurite in a DIV2 hippocampal neuron expressing FTractin-GFP. This was imaged every 6 seconds over 10 minutes on the trusty @zeiss-microscopy.bsky.social LSM880. Happy #FluorescenceFriday
We are hiring a postdoc! If you love culturing neurons and are stellar at electrophysiological characterisation and imaging of sensory neurons, then come and work with us on this cool multi-lab project!π§βπ π©βπ

π¨πNew Wassum Lab Paper ππ¨
Out today, Melissa Malvaez, Nick Griffin, Andrea Suarez & team discovered that dopamine can enable reward predictions to shape how we pursue reward.
Surprisingly, we find that dopamine can constrain instrumental reward seeking.

Macro photo of a brown stink bug in face view on a leaf, guarding a tightly-clustered bunch of eggs that are shaped and colored exactly like a full tray of dark beer with foam on top.
Finally, the bug is back with a round of the Guinness.
New lab paper in #ScienceAdvances: we identify a modality-common selective-attention signal in noncholinergic #BasalForebrain (BF) βburstingβ neurons, distinct from the modality-specific attention signals typically described in corticothalamic circuits. 1/n
