New paper alert! 🚨
We found that the brain's compass is remarkably stable at two scales
1️⃣ the system maintains its internal organization for weeks
2️⃣ It "remembers" its orientation for weeks, even after a single visit
This may be key to how the brain aligns its other maps.

How the brain's 'memory replay' goes wrong in Alzheimer's disease
Memory dysfunction in Alzheimer’s disease may be linked to impairment in how the brain replays our recent experiences while we are resting, according to a new study in mice by UCL scientists.

Our new preprint is now live on bioRxiv: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
We established neuronal recordings in freely moving subterranean mammals, enabling functional studies of brains in extreme ecological niches. 🚀

Neuronal recordings in head-fixed and freely-moving mole-rats
Mole-rats are subterranean rodents that have evolved remarkable sensory adaptations to life in underground tunnel systems, yet their neural mechanisms remain largely unexplored. Here, we present a pro...

💥 Another excellent study from Clément Naveilhan & Stephen Ramanoel, pushing forward our understanding of how the retrosplenial complex (hashtag#RSC) supports spatial orienting during active movement through space.

Really excited to share this Opinion piece we've been working on with fellow head-direction cell geeks @apeyrache.bsky.social @desdemonafricker.bsky.social and (bsky-less?) Andrea Burgalossi! While head-direction cells pop up in many cortical regions, we think that one of them is quite unique (1/8)

Excited to share our lab’s first marmoset preprint! 🐒✨
We show that marmosets develop structured yet flexible foraging routes in a semi-naturalistic setting.
Big congratulations to @elma-nada.bsky.social and Francesca Lanzarini for leading this work!
