Resources
Below you can find a list of various useful resources and datasets.
Community resources
Below you can find several resources we have created for the community.
We have established and maintain the popular "Systems Neuroscience" mailing list (>2500 members, >2000 messages)
To subscribe, visit the link.We established and maintain the "Paris Neuro Calendar", which aims to centralize all neuroscience seminars, conferences, and events in the region.
Our lab has created the "French Academic Proxy", a browser extension that streamlines access through the INSERM and CNRS proxies.
Our lab has established the "Paris Neuro" community Discord server, aimed at promoting, organizing, and structuring interactions within the broader Paris systems & circuits and computational neuroscience community.
We provide the unofficial FENS2024 abstract database.
Here you can find our short guide to getting started with Bluesky social network platform.
Tutorials
If you are considering entering the field of systems and circuits neuroscience, the following resources would be extremely helpful in preparing you for the experimental and analytical methods that are necessary.
Neurophysiology & neural data analysis
A brief history of neuroscience
Approaches to study neural circuits
Online videos and material from a highly-relevant class organized by Luke Sjulson.Neural data science
Online course on the basics of analysis of neuroscience data by Philipp Berens.Basic theory of extracellular electrophysiology

Plasmids
Below is a list of our custom-designed plasmids.
We will soon deposit the plasmids at Addgene for distribution to the research community.
If you are interested in using any of these, get in touch.
Viruses
We have a number of AAV vectors produced in-house.
We will soon deposit the vectors at Addgene for distribution to the research community.
In the meantime, get in touch.
sgRNAs
A list of single guide RNAs for targeting specific mouse genes using saCas9.
We will soon deposit the plasmids at Addgene for distribution to the research community.
RNA seq datasets
mPFC snRNAseq
Hippocampus snRNAseq
