Attention, Attention, Early career investigators in Neuroscience: this is a great funding opportunity and a terrific community of scientists to join: deadline for application is February 25, 2026 🧠🧬🔬🧪

🔬 Join us for the next iBehave Seminar Series 2025 lecture with Prof. Dr. Mark Schnitzer @Stanford on Oct 9, 11:00 DZNE Bonn. Host: @jangrundemann.bsky.social

Title: Cell-type specific voltage imaging of neural spiking, oscillations, waves, and memory dynamics

Why do we sometimes fail at simple tasks? Our colleague @hannazwaka.bsky.social from #teamLIN co-authored a new study with Prof. Florian Engert’s lab @harvardmcb.bsky.social showing it’s due to lapses in focus—not ability. Using larval zebrafish, they revealed “attentional switching,” explaining

Any danish located postdoc who wants to apply to work with us and zebrafish, pls contact me (postdocs from other places can also get in touch, as we have other alternatives)

Sarah Mullally has been named as the new Archbishop of Canterbury, becoming the first woman to be chosen to lead the world's 85 million Anglicans.

My Own Lab at Westlake University is OPEN! We are recruiting cool people at all levels NOW!
By tinkering behaviors and neural circuits in distinct animal species (mouse, sugar glider, etc), we are exploring new ways of doing social neuroscience in vivo, in silico and at home!

If you’re applying to your dream lab for an internship/PhD/postdoc, always send a second email 1-2 weeks after the first one if you don’t hear back.

I promise we will be grateful rather than annoyed. My email inbox is a disaster and I’m quite junior - and very few of us have secretarial support

“Blame your parents if you can’t pay enough attention." At least when you are a zebrafish! Our new study on attentional switching together with Kumaresh Krishnan, @paulapflitsch.bsky.social , @zwitscherarmin.bsky.social and Florian Engert is out in Science Advances:
