On #InternationalWomensDay, we remember Cécile Vogt, co-founder of our original institute, and her daughters Marthe and Marguerite Vogt - all pioneering scientists in their fields. Their impact continues to shape modern science today. More on Cécile Vogt 👉 brain.mpg.de/cecile-vogt-... #Diversity

Had a great day at Human Technopole - lots of stimulating discussions with students and faculty and also, this should be a new standard, Aperol spritz after the seminar! @humantechnopole.bsky.social

Ribosomes in pairs: A survival strategy inside stressed cells. When nutrients drop or temperatures shift, cells switch to survival mode. New work by @erin-schuman.bsky.social & colleagues shows that inactive ribosomes pair up via a ribosomal RNA link @andschwarz.bsky.social @muellermara.bsky.social

Your brain doesn’t just passively track time ⏳ - it structures it. In @Science.org we show that activity in 🧠 memory circuits (LEC) drifts constantly, but makes sharp jumps at key moments, segmenting life into meaningful events. (1/2) 👉 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Event structure sculpts neural population dynamics in the lateral entorhinal cortex
Our experience of the world is a continuous stream of events that must be segmented and organized at multiple timescales. The neural mechanisms underlying this process remain unknown. In this work, we...
