New review from @wolberslab.bsky.social on using immersive virtual reality with older adults — covering key challenges, design tips, and practical solutions for both basic + clinical research. Great for anyone starting out in #VR + #Aging work! 📄 doi.org/10.1016/j.ar...

Pleased to announce that the 5th iSCAN Symposium, an interdisciplinary scientific conference on spatial cognition in aging and neurodegeneration, will be held from Dec 08-10, 2025 in Magdeburg. Please find more information about the meeting on the iSCAN website: bit.ly/41jFg9j

Just boosting this again because after a bit of bureaucratic wrangling we are now almost ready to launch! Adverts should be out next week - will keep you posted

Tenured-research position opened here in Paris : A great opportunity to leverage the full potential of the new 11.7T MRI scanner at Neurospin @inserm.fr @cea.fr @unicog.bsky.social 🧠🟦 / 🧠🤖 / 🧠🩺 #AcademicSky

Excellent work led by @green951.bsky.social showing how human retrosplenial cortex integrates landmarks and self-motion cues during spatial navigation!

Xiaoli Chen@green951.bsky.social · last yr.

How does the brain unify various spatial cues to form coherent spatial representations? Our latest paper shows that RSC contains cue-independent spatial representations in terms of representational similarity during spatial navigation. #7tmri #WolbersLab doi.org/10.1162/imag...

🚨 New lab paper!🚨 A dream study of mine for nearly 20 yrs not possible until now thanks to NIH 🧠 funding & 1st-author lead @seeber.bsky.social We tracked hippocampal activity as people walked memory-guided paths & imagined them again. Did brain patterns reappear?🧵👇 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Human neural dynamics of real-world and imagined navigation - Nature Human Behaviour

Seeber et al. studied brain recordings from implanted electrodes in freely moving humans. Neural dynamics encoded actual and imagined routes similarly, demonstrating parallels between navigational, im...

Our latest preprint "Path integration impairments reveal early cognitive changes in Subjective Cognitive Decline (SCD)" with @zorantiganj.bsky.social @wolberslab.bsky.social @dradamstreck.bsky.social Ehren Newman, Rysul Kabir & Jakub Slavik, is now live! 🎉 1/n www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Great write up at @thetransmitter.bsky.social on the seeming erasure of SABV in the new era of NIH. Gotta say The Transmitter is killing it the last few weeks, first to report on the Federal Register block and now this. Leading the charge! 💪 www.thetransmitter.org/policy/exclu...

Exclusive: NIH appears to archive policy requiring female animals in studies

Such a shift would “put us back in the dark ages in terms of our science,” says neuroscientist Anne Murphy, who helped to formulate the original policy.

In 2014 Dutch scientists left a hamster wheel outside, to see if wild animals would use it like their domesticated counterparts. The answer: hell yes! 734 visits from wild mice - plus rats, shrews, slugs ("running" being subjective here) & even frogs and snails. The apparent reason: fun. Just fun.
