The perfect wrap up for an awesome time at #SfN25. Thanks to everyone for all the great impressions and discussions. It was wonderful meeting such cool and nice people! @apeyrache.bsky.social @adrian-du.bsky.social @anujvadher.bsky.social & Paul Dudchenko
Managed to squeeze in one more head-direction themed get-together in the sun to wrap up #SfN25 🧭☀️🧠

👋 At #SfN25? Interested in how head-direction cells anchor to visual cues?
🧠 Come visit me Tuesday Morning (8am - 12pm)
📍 Poster RR15
showing work w/ @adrian-du.bsky.social on parallax in PoSub and what we learn from it for visual cue integration. Come say hi or DM for a coffee chat! ☕️ #Neurosky

Great to be back at SfN in San Diego, even though the weather gods have decided to go full 'Scottish summer' this year 🌧️
If you're here and you're into spatial navigation do check out the posters below 👇 [1/n]

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)
The postsubiculum as a head-direction cortex
The organisation of thalamocortical networks follows a conserved structure. Traditionally, these are divided into primary sensory systems that receive…

I love open science! Not only is this absolutely brilliant work on how time and events are encoded in LEC, it is also a crazy rich dataset and it's just available to everyone! Thank you so much for sharing the recordings, I can't wait to play around with it!
Your brain doesn’t just passively track time ⏳ - it structures it.
In @Science.org we show that activity in 🧠 memory circuits (LEC) drifts constantly, but makes sharp jumps at key moments, segmenting life into meaningful events. (1/2)

Event structure sculpts neural population dynamics in the lateral entorhinal cortex
Our experience of the world is a continuous stream of events that must be segmented and organized at multiple timescales. The neural mechanisms underlying this process remain unknown. In this work, we...

Very proud to have presented our work on modeling cognitive maps and episodic memory at the GEM conference today! @for2812.bsky.social
Check out our preprint to learn more about how you can bring together semantic and spatial information with our grid-cell-VSA model arxiv.org/abs/2503.08608

Very excited to get the opportunity to give a talk at GEM2025 on how we combine spatial and semantic information to form episodic memories. See you in beautiful Bochum :)
Registration for GEM 2025 closes on 30.04.25.
Bochum has a reputation for being grey and dull (due to the coal and steel industry), but in fact it is far from it. Currently the cherry blossoms are in bloom and by June greenery will abound.

I was curious about the wonky AI overview results being delivered by Google search, so I looked at this a bit further.

Re-reading classic papers from the 1940s, I have to say... introductions were different back then
