The #Moser researchers recorded thousands of #GridCell neurons in rat pups with #Neuropixels.
They found that key navigation network-activity structures - grid cell torus map 🍩 & head direction ring ⭕️ - emerge days before pups open their eyes, ears or start walking. (2:5)
2/7 Using large-scale #Neuropixels recordings in rat pups (P8-P19), we recorded up to ~1000 simultaneous MEC-PaS units. We found toroidal manifolds in the medial entorhinal cortex (#MEC) as early as postnatal day 10 (P10), preceding eye/ear opening and active exploration🍩
Is spatial navigation innate 🧠? Using #NeuroPixels we show that the #torus 🍩 underlying the #GridCell map exists already on day 10 in rats — before pups open eyes and ears and before they start upright walking. 🧵1:4

Neuropixels 2.0 people - what control system are you using these days, and are you happy with it? Would you recommend to go for the classic PXIe, try out OneBox or fork out for ONIX?
Quite a choice these days but what's actually robust and user-friendly in practice?

Whether the system can be flexibly redirected to prioritize specific locations has been unclear. Using large-scale #Neuropixels recordings in freely behaving rats, we find that both sweeps – and the internal direction signals driving them – are dynamically modulated moment by moment. (4/6)

Our new preprint is now live on bioRxiv: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
We established neuronal recordings in freely moving subterranean mammals, enabling functional studies of brains in extreme ecological niches. 🚀

Good morning #SfN. Want to chat about chronic Neuropixels or tracking? Find me today at the #Neuropixels booth (3731) from 11 to 12! And if you're still around tomorrow afternoon, come talk about distributed coding in navigation at my poster tomorrow afternoon (RR16).
All talks of the 2025 UCL #Neuropixels course are now available: www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...
For more information on the course see the website: www.ucl.ac.uk/neuropixels/...
And for those at #SfN, come say hi at the #Neuropixels booth (Number 3731) or at my Poster 👋.
Happy Neuropixeling!

2/5 After two decades, our hypothesis for this space-to-memory transformation finally met a decisive test.
Led by our outstanding postdoc @clykken.bsky.social, we performed multi-area #Neuropixels recordings simultaneously from hippocampal place cells and multiple MEC grid cells modules in rats 🧠

The sound of cells in the brain just doesn’t get old! It’s how I fell in love with #neuroscience 🧠🧪👩🏻🔬
Celebrating small victories - first #neuropixels recordings in the lab. Congrats to the team that made it happen!
(1/6) Thrilled to share our triple-N dataset (Non-human Primate Neural Responses to Natural Scenes)! It captures thousands of high-level visual neuron responses in macaques to natural scenes using #Neuropixels.
ONIX analog and digital expansion board, with commutator and Neuropixels headstage. Monitor showing the workflow in Bonsai using the OpenEphys.Onix1 package and the Open Ephys GUI Probe Viewer plugin.
Are you using Neuropixels probes with our ONIX headstages?
🛠️ We’ve just uploaded a tutorial that details how to stream Neuropixels data from Bonsai to Open Ephys GUI so you can use its high-density probe visualizers while retaining the flexibility of Bonsai.
