What a fantastic week at the Cambridge Open Lab Summer School! 🔬✨ We explored open science and got hands-on: building sensors, 3D-printing models, and tracking movements. Huge thanks to our speakers, TAs, and especially our amazing students for making it such a fun week of learning together! 🙌

Had a lot of fun writing this primer with @elisagalliano.bsky.social! If you've ever been transported back to childhood by the smell of a familiar scent, you might enjoy this. We unpack a new study revealing how neurons generated around birth help encode these lifelong olfactory memories.

Do you use Bonsai and Harp for behaviour acquisition? How easy has it been to interface the outputs with your analysis pipeline? We’re building a high-level Python interface to streamline Bonsai/Harp integration and align data streams. Nearly there, we’d love your input! See thread ⬇️ #neuroskyence

We are super happy to announce the third Workshop of Ideas in Neuroscience! We will once again look critically at assumptions of modern neuroscience: what does it mean that the brain encodes information? Is this a useful approach, or a metaphor that blurs our vision?
