I am excited to share an updated preprint from my PhD work with @lisa_giocomo! This project was co-led by @KaganovskyNeuro when he was a PhD student with Tom Südhof. 🧵below!

Hippocampal place code plasticity in CA1 requires postsynaptic membrane fusion biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

www.biorxiv.org Hippocampal place code plasticity in CA1 requires postsynaptic membrane fusion Rapid delivery of glutamate receptors to the postsynaptic membrane via vesicle fusion is a central component of synaptic plasticity. However, it is unknown how this process supports specific neural...

It was an immense pleasure to join the ASAP crew & @MichaelLinLab for this project! ASAP4 is an awesome tool for the community!
Congrats to all of the authors!

Today in @naturemethods: our new positively tuned voltage indicator, ASAP4e, for extended electrical recordings in the brain.

ASAP4e achieves greater responsivity (>200% per 100mV vs 50% for other fluorescent voltage sensors) and better photostability.

I am honored to be a part of this impressive group of new Jane Coffin Childs Fellows! Thank you so much @JCChildsFund for this amazing opportunity

Being able to do a project with my friend @KaganovskyNeuro was definitely a highlight of my PhD! Check out this thread and our preprint! This project substantially updates our understanding of what LTP contributes to neural coding and behavior, particularly in the hippocampus

It was my pleasure contributing to this great work from @michaelzlin’s lab! Their new upward-going ASAP4 made it possible to record simultaneous calcium and voltage data from place cells using a standard 2P system from @neurolabware. Congrats to Stephen and all the many authors!
