Engaging work on #tanycyte and these synaptoids structures. I'm wondering if they'll show up in a whole brain synaptosome prep? 🤔 And at what percentage? rdcu.be/fpF3A
A synaptoid connectome differentiates tanycytic subpopulations and underlies neuroglial communication and neuroendocrine regulation
Nature Communications - The structure and function of neuron-tanycyte synaptoids are unclear. Here, the authors show that tanycytic subtypes receive specific input from hypothalamic and...

This #book has changed the way I see #TheoreticalNeuroscience. It's a beautiful journey on the recent history of the field - highlighting key figures and sharing memorable anecdotes along the way. Thanks @neurograce.bsky.social! #ComputationalNeuroscience #Modelsofthemind
Interesting review of the #neurobiology of #overeating and its links with #addiction. Not only the disruption of the dopaminergic system but also: "[...]dessert is a customary part of a meal, and people may eat it out of habit or tradition, regardless of hunger." doi.org/10.1016/j.ne...

Science communication is more necessary than ever! The current constraints on biomedical research should be known by the general public. Great discussion from @eara.eu and @tvvde.bsky.social in #NWG2025 #AnimalResearch
Ready for the #NWG25! Come by to T7-1A for a closer look into synaptic mechanism of scaffolding proteins and memory 🧠 @neurowissg.bsky.social
