  1. Also the #iBehave seminar series continues. First speaker will be Prof. Dr. Veronica Egger (University of Regensburg), talking about "Rhythms in the #OlfactoryBulb: From #NeuronalNetwork #oscillations to heartbeat interoception"

  2. Watch the fascinating behaviour of a mass-spring-damper system as it transitions from overdamped (where motion is slow and heavily resisted) to undamped (where it oscillates freely without energy loss). This animation beautifully demonstrates how varying levels of damping impact motion and energy dissipation in mechanical systems.

  3. Great having Mark Schnitzer at today’s #iBehave lecture at the @dzne! Fascinating talk on cell-type specific #VoltageImaging 🧠⚡ of neural #spiking, #oscillations, #waves, and #MemoryDynamics. Showing that spike-resolution #imaging 🔬 in vivo is finally there 💪

  5. I recently played around with #RateModels using #NESTsimulator. Compared to #SNN, RM focus on average firing rates of #NeuronPopulations, simplifying analysis of large networks. They effectively capture collective dynamics like #oscillations and #synchronization, though they miss precise spike timing details. Thus, both approaches have their merits. Here is a brief overview:

  6. Here is a direct follow-up on this, now showing how to implement #GapJunctions in a network of #spiking #neurons (#SNN) using the #NESTsimulator. We simulate a network of 500 inhibitory neurons with gap junctions and analyze the effects on #synchrony and #oscillations. The code is also available on GitHub. Feel free to modify and expand upon it 🤗

  7. 📝 New blog post: #GapJunctions (#ElectricalSynapses) enable direct electrical and chemical communication between #neurons, synchronizing activity and supporting rapid signal propagation. Their #modeling is crucial for understanding #NeuralNetworkDynamics, #oscillations, and #brain 🧠 function. Here is a brief summary including a small #PythonTutorial using the #NESTsimulator.

  8. New preprint/model: the Rosa-Margin Hypothesis. When the vCA1 safety buffer shrinks (<~5 mV), everyday network transients trigger involuntary replay of emotional engrams → SZ/MDD/PTSD trajectories.

  9. 📚 New article by Lopes-dos-Santos, Brizee & Dupret: Spatio-temporal organization of network activity patterns in the #hippocampus. They use a low-dimensional embedding of #CA1#DG #LFP in behaving mice to reveal layer-specific #GammaRhythms and distinct firing motifs aligned with hippocampal microcircuit architecture – offering a data-driven view of how #oscillations coordinate #InformationFlow across hippocampal layers.

  10. A few days back, I posted some #AnimatedGifs of the exact solution for a large-amplitude undamped, unforced #Pendulum. I then thought to complete the study to include the case when it has been fed enough #energy to allow it just to undergo #FullRotations, rather than just #oscillations. Well, it turns out that it is “a bit more complicated than I first expected” but I finally managed it.

  11. The brain processes sensory information via gamma #oscillations, while top-down control is mediated via alpha/beta; how do these interact? This study provides a mechanistic account of the integration of these separate streams of information flow in visual attention @PLOSBiology plos.io/4iksxM3

  12. Quantum heat dynamics toggled by magnetic fields: Research team of @HZDR, #unibonn and #cnrs discovers unknown mechanism of #heat conduction which causes dramatically enhanced heat #oscillations in the #quantum material #ZrTe₅.

  13. Beta-band #oscillations regulate maintenance & deletion of #WorkingMemory representations in humans. This study shows that the WM performance of older adults can be predicted by beta-band neural variability during working memory deletion #PLOSBiology plos.io/3B8yw6y

  14. First Results from DESI Make the Most Precise Measurement of Our Expanding Universe

    Researchers have used the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument to make the largest 3D map of our universe and world-leading measurements of dark energy, the mysterious cause of its accelerating expansion
