1/8. Preprint!✨How spontaneous is spontaneous behavior?🧠🐭
We found that whole-brain fUSi signals predicted spontaneous behavior transitions seconds in advance. Inhibiting one node of this transition-prone state, the medial septum, facilitated switching!

1/8. New preprint!
Using fUSi in head-fixed mice🐭, we found that arousal events trigger a brain-wide wave of activity 🌊🧠.
Surprisingly, this pattern was preserved during manipulations of the locus coeruleus, pointing to a minor role for noradrenaline.

Thrilled to share that our work is now published in @ScienceMagazine!✨

We found a preference for visual objects in the mouse spatial navigation system where they dynamically refine head-direction coding. In short, objects boost our inner compass!🧭

Congratulations!! So well deserved! It should also be highlighted that Botond and José are incredibly kind mentors, on top of their visionary science.
