Very excited to share this one 🧠✨ Our work on longitudinal multimodal imaging in awake mice is officially out! We combined wide-field calcium imaging and fMRI to investigate brain-wide function across brain states and aging. A milestone long in the making. ~See related emojis 🐭🔬☕️🧲🧠

this is a major bummer and seemingly nobody is talking about it. from a european ip address, i dont even get to this page!!! this is catastrophic for open science and brain science.

Talking about spooky stuff…try to do awake mouse fMRI. Oh, you want it spookier? Try to add simultaneous Ca2+ imaging. Now, do it all again, longitudinally…. So proud to finally have this out!!! 🐭 🧠 🧲 Go read…if you dare!! 👻 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

This project finally wrapping up 👇!!! 40+ mice, 5 different cell types of calcium recordings, 1006 EPIs…. All done simultaneously, of course ;) What a journey this was!! As usual… 🐭 🧲 🧠

When you want to gather some of the mouse people from ISMRM and more than 20 show up…you ditch a sit-down dinner, buy beer at 7/11 and go talk about science on the beach!! 🏝️ 🐭 🧠 🧲 @shihyyi.bsky.social @gozziale.bsky.social @shellakeilholz.bsky.social and maaany others! 🌊 Our community is cool!!!
