Happy to share our new study about how cortical and thalamic inputs engage cholinergic interneurons in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) core, all done by my graduate student Emily Jang:โ€จwww.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Excited to share our new study showing how subcortical inputs are routed through ventromedial (VM) thalamus to layer 1 interneurons in the medial PFC, all done by my graduate student Sanne Casello:

My latest Aronov lab paper is now published @Nature!

When a chickadee looks at a distant location, the same place cells activate as if it were actually there ๐Ÿ‘๏ธ

The hippocampus encodes where the bird is looking, AND what it expects to see next -- enabling spatial reasoning from afar

Functional properties of corticothalamic circuits targeting paraventricular thalamic neurons The authors show that activation of prelimbic (PL) cortex inputs leads to depolarization block in a subset of anterior paraventricular thalamic (aPVT) neurons. Inhibitory inputs from the anteroventral...

Excited to publish a broad set of enhancers to target interneuron types in the brain, along with a broad set of collaborators. Part of the BI armamentarium. Together this will help revolutionize the targeting of brain circuits.https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.07.17.603924v2

Hidden state inference requires abstract contextual representations in the ventral hippocampus The ability to use subjective, latent contextual representations to influence decision-making is crucial for everyday life. The hippocampus is hypothesized to bind together otherwise abstract combinat...

Huge congrats to @karyna-mi.bsky.social for her paper published today in Science! She found that the hippocampus is really important for a key strategy we use to make decisions called hidden state inference! ๐Ÿงช ๐Ÿง https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adq5874 1/7
