Are virtual flies playing Beat Saber? SM64? Doom? No. The new fly connectome is an incredible achievement! Less is going on in the sim videos than it seems. I'm stoked to see people engage with neuroscience though. My breakdown: www.neuroai.science/p/are-flies-...

Are flies playing Beat Saber?

What a time to be alive!

New preprint from our lab: even when the SCN (the central circadian pacemaker) looks broadly similar in diurnal and nocturnal animals, its underlying dynamics can differ substantially.

out now, the one mammalian paper I somehow found myself being a part of! With Michael Tackenberg, @jonesjeffr.bsky.social and Vinnie Cassone. In it, we discuss temporal niches, coupling and the organization of circadian networks. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

A new article from Jordan Cook in our lab and Qijun Tang in the Hattar lab: best practices in long-term fiber photometry recording. We argue that the field needs a standardized framework for experiments and analysis. academic.oup.com/pnasnexus/ad...

Always a joy to catch up with the Texas Society for Circadian Biology & Medicine! This year we even got some cool new data from Michael Rosbash - it's not every day you get to ask a Nobel Prize winner a question!! 🤩 #chronobiology #circadian #SleepPeeps

A man (Michael Rosbash) stands at a podium in front of a slideshow titled "recent studies addressing the regulation of circadian rhythms". Another man (Joe Takahashi) stands to his right, introducing him as our next speaker.

Trump & Musk are making massive cuts to the National Institutes of Health. I know there is a lot going on right now, but this is one of worst things they have done so far, will affect cancer research and trials, the search for cures, innovation and competitiveness, our universities. Your lives.
