- Reposted by Livia de Hoz🚨new paper alert Blind mice use stereo olfaction, comparing smells between nostrils, to maintain a stable sense of direction. Blocking this ability disrupts their internal compass. Kudos to @kasumbisa.bsky.social! Another cool chapter of the Trenholm-Peyrache collab😉 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

- Phase of firing does not reflect temporal order in sequence memory of humans and recurrent neural networks. Beautiful work by @stefanieliebe.bsky.social
- Science Alert 🚨: Our paper is now out in @natureneuro.bsky.social - We show that the firing phase of neurons in human MTL doesn’t reflect the order of events, challenging a long-standing theory of human memory. nature.com/articles/s41593-025-01893-7
- To the person I should meet now at Hall 009, please write me an email. Thank you.

If your grant was terminated (or your app was pulled) please use this Google Form👇 to submit details for tracking purposes. Multiple advocacy efforts are moving forward, but we must must must know more about what grants were cancelled and why.

- My speech from #Chicago #StandUpforScience rally today. I wanted to write something that was about why I support science, not as a scientist myself, but as a citizen. This is dedicated to a dear relative, an arborist for the #NationalParkService. 🧵Photos from the rally in Chicago today by Mike Yen.
