Another important and somewhat unexpected role of noradrenaline. So much to discover still !

Just back from #FENS2026 had the pleasure to chair a technical workshop "Imaging brainwide activity with functional ultrasound imaging across species and brain states" with 5 amazing speakers: @mace-lab.bsky.social, @agnesland.bsky.social, Yves boubenec, Thomas Orset and Sadaf Soloukey.

Brainwide blood volume reflects opposing neural populations - Nature
Combined functional ultrasound imaging and Neuropixels recording of mouse brains identify two neuronal populations with opposing arousal-related activity and distinct haemodynamic response functions, that occur throughout the brain.

New paper out 🎉 Awake fUSI is powerful, but motion can strongly bias the data, even in head-fixed experiments. In this paper, we tried to systematically characterize those artifacts, benchmark denoising strategies, and turn that into practical recommendations for awake fUSI of mouse brains. 1/12

Our study on infraslow rhythm during reptile sleep made the cover of Nature Neuroscience this month !! The outcome of a 6-year endeavour with PA Libourel and colleagues. So happy to see this flashing chameleon out there 🎉 !

If neuroscience is serious about building general principles of brain function, cross-species dialogue must become a core organizing principle rather than an afterthought, writes @suthanalab.bsky.social. #neuroskyence www.thetransmitter.org/animal-model...

Neuroscience has a species problem

New paper alert! 🚨 We found that the brain's compass is remarkably stable at two scales 1️⃣ the system maintains its internal organization for weeks 2️⃣ It "remembers" its orientation for weeks, even after a single visit This may be key to how the brain aligns its other maps. Paper: rdcu.be/e3waP

2025 has been quite a year for me! Welcomed a new member in the family in Jan 🐣, got a permanent position @CNRS in May 🎓, and got awarded an Atip-Avenir fellowship in August 😱! Can't top that. Looking forward to start my own group at the Paris Brain Institute in 2026. Cool science ahead 😀!
