 Accepted - in press! Our microcircuits go "LFP"!! Congratulations Alexandra!!! "Deciphering the contribution of oriens-lacunosum/moleculare (OLM) cells to intrinsic theta rhythms using biophysical local field potential (LFP) models" (earlier bioarxiv version can be read now, eNeuro publication available soon) doi:https://doi.org/10/1101/246561 |
Upcoming Seminar - Lisa Topolnik
 My collaborator is in town and will be giving a seminar on: "Transcriptomic profile, connectivity and role in memory encoding of long-range VIP GABAergic neurons" - Tues June 26th at 3pm next door in 4KD503. See you there! |
Welcome Scott!
 A warm welcome to Scott who joins us from the University of Michigan. Of great importance - he arrived just in time to see his alma mater in action against some Toronto teams! And then there'll be some modeling stuff to do... :)  |
"Krembil Math"
 After many Toronto Western and Krembil research days - see https://osf.io/2uxm8/ for some history..... You know that 'Computational Neuroscience and Mathematical Modeling' has fully arrived at the Krembil when you see a slide full of mathematical equations, no-one flinches... and the person presenting it is recognized! :) Exciting times!!! and of course congrats John G. - KCN (Krembil Computational Neuroscience) grouping! |
Way to go Alexandra! Congrats!!!
 Many, many congratulations to Alexandra - an NSERC CGS awardee!! Well-deserved and onward to more exciting research ventures! Thank you NSERC!  |

KCN end-of-year outing!
 It's wonderful having a resident artiste! - thx Jeremie! ...and thx for pics Alexandra! Fun first KCN outing! Happy holidays everyone!!  |
Physiology appreciation and congrats!
 Thank you Alex for presenting for our lab and giving a "Lightning Talk" at the Physiology retreat on Dec 8th - forced me to make one (!) slide and now sits on my Research website. And a big congrats to Alex for getting at poster prize at this year's Physiology BRAIN day!!!! enjoy the coffee. .... and I will enjoy my unexpected raffle win at Physiology lunch raffle :) |
