New paper alert! π¨
We found that the brain's compass is remarkably stable at two scales
1οΈβ£ the system maintains its internal organization for weeks
2οΈβ£ It "remembers" its orientation for weeks, even after a single visit
This may be key to how the brain aligns its other maps.

tfw when some unbiased experiments validate and extend some older findings... given that we acquiesced to the pressure and gave up this work to start the lab's direction over from scratch... I feel justified to be completely petty and say - suck it neurotrophin haters ;)

HPV vaccination could prevent most cervical cancers, but only 27% of eligible adolescent girls worldwide have received the vaccine. Data suggest that a single dose may be protective. Research findings from the ESCUDDO trial are summarized in a new Quick Take video. nej.md/3MFcHBr
