Not the prettiest cell, but I'll take it: a voltage imaging recording of a striatal SST interneuron in vivo! 🧠 Now if we can pull this off with PV interneurons too, we'll really be cooking.
A red line on a graph shows intermittent spikes rising up from the baseline. The visible trace spans aapproximately five seconds.

Just verifying our voltage imaging data agrees with patch-clamp ephys; that's a check! 🧠

I think Zach Fyke, a graduate student in our group may have broken some sort of patch-clamp record while teaching at @mblscience.bsky.social. Over the past three days, he has coached 21 people to patch at least one cell on our rig away from home. Photos are our “wall of success.”

#neuroskyence folks: as my postdoc grant is running out soon, I am looking for new opportunities in systems neuroscience! Keywords: patch clamp ephys, opto, mouse behavior, (in vivo) voltage imaging. Would love to return to the Basal Ganglia. Sharing appreciated, and happy #FluorescenceFriday !

Today's #TraceTuesday also comes from Nic! This trace shows action potentials (spikes) from a retinal ganglion cell. Notice how the activity is much more slow compared to the cell from Adam a few weeks ago! 📈

Happy #MicroscopyMonday everyone! 🔬🧪 Today we have something a little bit different by Nic! In the video we can see the process she uses to clean the cells in order to patch them. 🐀

Today's #TraceTuesday comes from Adam! It shows a mature intrinsic lateral olivocochlear neuron (iLOC; a type of efferent neuron) firing lots of action potentials! These iLOCs contact with the type I afferent neurons that innervate the inner hair cells, but not much is known about them. 📈🧪

Starting things off today, we have a trace from Ivy, who is currently getting to grips with the art of patch-clamping! This trace shows the mechanoelectrical transduction (MET) current from a neonatal mouse outer hair cell. This is a great achievement for Ivy 🎉.

As a journalism grad, I struggled with Git for YEARS. For longer than I’d like to admit, it felt easier to keep my code on Google Drive instead of GitHub. 😅 So I’m kicking off a new section on Code Like a Journalist all about Git and GitHub! First lesson linked below — with more on the way! 👇

🧪 The Sjöström Lab in Montreal is looking for a postdoc! We study cortical circuits, synaptic plasticity, and NMDAR signalling using custom 2-photon microscopy and optogenetics. We seek candidates with strong patch-clamp and/or 2-photon imaging expertise, and a relevant publication track record.
We are looking for an outstanding postdoctoral researcher to join our team at McGill University. The Sjöström lab studies neocortical circuits, with a focus on synaptic plasticity, NMDA receptor signaling, 2-photon optogenetics, and advanced 2-photon imaging. We are particularly interested in candidates with strong expertise in whole-cell patch-clamp electrophysiology and/or 2-photon imaging, and a solid track record of relevant publications.
Applicants should be experienced with whole-cell recordings and/or cutting-edge imaging approaches. Responsibilities will include performing experiments, analyzing and presenting data locally and internationally, writing manuscripts, and occasionally mentoring junior lab members.
Our lab is based at the Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre, in vibrant, multicultural Montreal—a city that offers exceptional quality of life. McGill and its neighbouring universities form one of the most dynamic neuroscience communities in the world.
For examples of our current directions, see:
•	Chou et al The Innovation 2025, www.cell.com/the-innovation/fulltext/S2666-6758(24)00173-5
•	Wong et al Neuron 2024, www.cell.com/neuron/fulltext/S0896-6273(23)00767-5
The position is fully funded with a competitive salary. Candidates are also expected to apply for external funding, for which we provide strong support. Opportunities are available for both Canadian and international applicants.
To apply, please send a Letter of Intent, CV, brief research statement, and contact information for three referees to Dr. Jesper Sjöström (jesper.sjostrom@mcgill.ca). In the subject line, include "Postdoc" followed by your name.
Application deadline: July 31, 2025.
