#Baltimore Mayor #BrandonScott invested in 42 summer youth camps, 29 literacy programs, extended the rec center hours to 11 p.m, planned block parties, opened the pools for safe fun, & opened several schools up for summer classes. Crime is down 62%. 🔥🔥 www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...
Baltimore is seeing the city’s fewest homicides in 50 years. Here’s why.
Multiple people have taken credit for the historic drop that mirrors a national decrease in violent crimes. Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott says it’s due to a community-based approach to gun violence.

👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 A summary of @michaelgoard.bsky.social and Nora Wolcott’s awesome paper in @thetransmitter.bsky.social: www.thetransmitter.org/neuroendocri...
Spatial learning circuitry fluctuates in step with estrous cycle in mice
Cyclic shifts in estradiol levels coincide with changes in dendritic spine density and the activity of place cells in the CA1 region of the hippocampus, a new study shows.

Very happy to see a Transmitter (@thetransmitter.bsky.social) piece on our recent work on estrous cycle modulation of hippocampal structure and function. Thanks to Sydney Wyatt (@sydneywyatt.bsky.social) for covering the work and its context:

It was a pleasure to work on this idea together with @leokoz8.bsky.social and Jean-Jacques Slotine.

Online now:
The estrous cycle modulates hippocampal spine dynamics, dendritic processing, and spatial coding
In this study, Wolcott et al. explore estrous-cycle modulation of hippocampal neuron structure and function. Using longitudinal two-photon imaging across the estrous cycle, they find significant modulation at the synaptic, cellular, and population levels.

One thing that surprised me about this whole process (beyond getting a position) was how much support I got from people. Friends and advisors gave me lots of time and advice, and helped me practice. It was a really special thing 😀

Inspired by @ninamiolane.bsky.social, my group will be named the Dynamic Intelligence Group (can you DIG it?), with the vision of studying the dynamics of learning and learning of dynamics in artificial and biological systems to improve autonomy and AI

High-Dimensional Dynamics in Low-Dimensional Networks.

New preprint with a former undergrad, Yue Wan.

I'm not totally sure how to talk about these results. They're counterintuitive on the surface, seem somewhat obvious in hindsight, but then there's more to them when you dig deeper.
