Happy to share that I just started a W2 professorship at the University of Bremen! Yay tenure! While I already start teaching now, the lab will stay in Freiburg until May while we get things ready. Super excited about this new chapter! We’re also hiring! Please get in touch if you’re interested!

Congrats @laurabusse.bsky.social and coauthors on a great study on different visual gamma oscillations! @cr31.bsky.social and I had a lot of fun writing the preview!

We thank our reviewers for invaluable feedback and the ‪‬ @dfg.de for funding. And special thanks to @cr31.bsky.social and @juliaveit.bsky.social for writing a beautiful and comprehensive preview of our study (doi: doi.org/10.1016/j.ne...).

Fantastic symposium on circuit function last week here at CIPMM. Thanks to our guests Kristina Lippmann, Magdalene Schlesiger, Fiona Muellner and @juliaveit.bsky.social for sharing their latest on synaptic function, interneuron & pyramidal cell networks and long-range communication.

I'm really proud of my two graduate students, Hyein and Hayagreev, for getting this challenging and exciting project across the finish line. We reveal the state-dependent logic that underlies callosal signaling between the somatosensory cortices. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Bilateral integration in somatosensory cortex is controlled by behavioral relevance - Nature Neuroscience

How sensory signals from both sides of the body are integrated into a single percept is not well understood. Park et al. show that callosal signaling supports the integration of bilateral tactile stim...

Yes, we were surprised to discover that the sensory map in superior colliculus (SC) is biased by stimulus value, while the map in cortex maintained a faithful representation of receptor space. Bias in the SC map emerged only when the sensory associations had opposite values. Check out the paper!

Intelligent behavior includes the ability to respond selectively to #stimuli with higher value. @scottrpluta.bsky.social &co reveal where & how in the murine neural hierarchy the transition from a map of stimulus location to a map of stimulus value occurs @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/4jgxnKZ

Top left: illustration of the positive- and negative-valued single whisker stimuli. A lick response to the positive stimulus was associated with reward (water) while a lick response to the negative stimulus was associated with punishment (extra locomotor delay). Top right: rasters of lick timing during Go and No-Go trials. The touch window is shaded. Bottom left: illustration of the experimental system combining active tactile discrimination, whisker tracking, and electrophysiology in either the barrel cortex or superior colliculus. Bottom right: Top, histological section of superior colliculus and three-shank silicon probe dye labeling. Bottom, Allen Brain Atlas of corresponding region of superior colliculus.
