  • Lucas Baudouin joins the team!

    The brain represents a formidable hub of interaction between multiple cells types, working in concert to lead to a wide spectrum of cognitive phenotypes. A better understanding of this vast and complex network remains one of the keys to identifying how cognitive disorders are a hallmark of many neurological diseases. My previous research work enabled…

  • Job alert! Postdoc and/or Assistant professor position

    We are seeking a talented scientist to strengthen our lab as we strive to improve patient outcomes by understanding and manipulating personalized multiscale network data. We investigate brain disease in general, and glioma specifically, on multiple scales: at the macroscale, we employ advanced neuroimaging and neurophysiology, as well as behavioral assessments. At the micro and mesoscales,…

  • New research section & team members

    As of September 1st, we are a separate research section within the department of Anatomy and Neurosciences! Multiscale Network Neuroscience or MULTINET aims to integrate theoretical insights and empirical findings across different scales of measurement of the brain, ranging from microscopic investigation of individual cells and circuits to whole-brain imaging and behavioral assessments, in order…

  • Why are we putting our journal club discussions on PubPeer?

    Peer review is one of the fundamental pillars of academia, but there is very little guidance for newcomers. They are often asked by their supervisors to join a review for a particular journal and may get exposed to this particular supervisor’s reviewing style. As they start publishing papers themselves, they get exposed to the good,…
