Really excited to share this work with the community! Big thanks to @justuskebschull.bsky.social and @jef.works, as well as our lab members and collaborators, for their support and fun discussions throughout this project!

NEW PREPRINT! An evo-devo look at how new cerebellar nuclei are made. Spoiler: it’s all driven by region-specific excitatory progenitors in the early rhombic lip; inhibitory neurons fill in later. If you care about brain evolution or cerebellar development, check it out: tinyurl.com/CNdevelopment

PREPRINT ALERT! Sophie and Alex, amazing PhD students from the Wolff and Anastasidis labs, teamed up to venture into Microbubble-enhanced focused ultrasound (MB-FUS) and took a new, multimodal approach to test its safety in-depth.

POINTseq, now out in Neuron after peer review. Read it. There are barcodes, viruses, and dopamine. Congrats to @hyopilkim.bsky.social on leading our lab's first published paper!

New from the lab: BARseq3! Barcodes + high efficiency spatial transcriptomics and translatomics in the same cells, or just a nice spatial transcriptomics assay. All in a modular, expandable system to enable truly multimodal measurements. Check it out: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

As a longtime fan of cool papers in @currentbiology.bsky.social, I am really thrilled to see this out! This study sets the stage for understanding the origins of novel (vocal) behaviors. Big shout out to the main architects of this work @xmikezheng20.bsky.social and @cliffscience.bsky.social

I am recruiting graduate students for the experimental side of my lab @mcgill.ca for admission in Fall 2026! Get in touch if you're interested in how brain circuits implement distributed computation, including dopamine-based distributed RL and probabilistic representations.

If you are at #SfN2025, don't miss Huihui's poster tomorrow (Sunday) morning at MM6 (PSTR095.13)! He has developed methods for barcoded connectomics across many vertebrates, from frogs to NHPs, and is comparing the single-cell anatomy of the song systems of zebra finches and parrots!

Want to learn everything there is to know about barcoded connectomics, brain clearing, and modern neuroanatomy? There is still time to apply for the CSHL High Throughput Neuroanatomy course! Stipends are available. meetings.cshl.edu/courses.aspx...

Next-generation of barcoded projection mapping techniques: MAPseq2 and POINTseq! Congratulations @justuskebschull.bsky.social and team.

Excited to share the first 2(!) preprints from the Kebschull Lab. The amazing @hyopilkim.bsky.social developed MAPseq2 & POINTseq and used them to map the dopaminergic cells of VTA and SNc. tl;dr MAPseq2=10x cheaper, 4x better; POINTseq=easy cell type specific barcoding; DA neurons=very cool.

Many academics point to bioRxiv as “the one thing improving science publishing”. If so, the one thing you all can do is persuade colleagues to submit and make this a norm. 1/2
