Our work on goal-directed theta sweeps is out! We found two different types of theta sweeps in the rat hippocampus. During random foraging, left-right alternating sweeps dominated (Vollan, 25). However, during memory-guided navigation sweeps pointing to hidden goal locations emerged with learning.

We're recruiting postdocs to study how people build structured knowledge from experience & use it to act flexibly. Behavioral work, fMRI, computational & AI models, with a lifespan focus. You don't need experience with every method; fit & curiosity matter most. Please repost & share! 🧠

📢 PhD opportunity between France and Italy I’m recruiting an international PhD student for OPTIFLEX, a project co-supervised between Marseille and Genova on the optical control of neural circuits for action selection in mice. Details and application: schadoc.univ-amu.fr/en/projects/...

We used rabies virus 👾 to map how #psilocybin modifies long-range circuits 🧠, revealing network-specific reorganization that we didn’t expect. The full study is now online at Cell. @cp-cell.bsky.social Paper 👉 www.cell.com/cell/fulltex... Thread for a synopsis 👉 bsky.app/profile/alex...

Psilocybin triggers an activity-dependent rewiring of large-scale cortical networks

Psilocybin reshapes brain networks through activity-dependent plasticity, including a weakening of recurrent cortical loops that could underlie its therapeutic effects.

Excited to share our latest story! We found disentangled memory representations in the hippocampus that generalized across time and environments, despite the seemingly random drift and remapping of single cells. This code enabled the transfer of prior knowledge to solve new tasks

Honor excellence by nominating an early-career, independent neuroscientist who has made significant contributions to the scientific community through collaboration, creativity, and curiosity-driven research. www.mpfi.org/pgyia
