I am currently at the Optogenetics + 2023 conference in St. Petersburg.
🫶 "Scientists should constantly improve themselves [in various ways] by participating in schools and conferences, as they offer continuous education and individual experience that form a scientist as a specialist in their field"
😃 I was pleasantly impressed by the excellent organization and motivated people around me, the cozy atmosphere and the fascinating topics of the reports
Days 1&2. Lectures The lectures were devoted to research on creation of the new optogenetics tools for studying and controlling processes in neural cells. Also there were reports and posters about optogenetic approaches to the treatment of epilepsy, which I found to be amazing.
Day 3. School on Modern Methods of Invasive Neural Activity Control Simultaneously with the Conference, the School on Modern Methods of Non-Invasive Control of Neuronal Activity took place. It included several master classes on the use of modern methods of optogenetics in scientific research.
I chose the first master class. We practiced a fascinating ontogenetic method of surgically injecting a viral vector of fluorescent protein to mark certain neurons for histology or (if this vector was connected with rodopsine vector) for causing de-/hyperpolarization ex vivo.

Oh no. There’s a certain degree of myth-making around what exactly went on, so take everything that follows lightly. Telegram was originally launched as a side project by the Durov brothers, with Nikolai handling the coding and Pavel as CEO, while both were at VK. The news also helped traders look past another report showing decades-high inflation and shake off some of the volatility from recent sessions. The Bureau of Labor Statistics' February Consumer Price Index (CPI) this week showed another surge in prices even before Russia escalated its attacks in Ukraine. The headline CPI — soaring 7.9% over last year — underscored the sticky inflationary pressures reverberating across the U.S. economy, with everything from groceries to rents and airline fares getting more expensive for everyday consumers. Asked about its stance on disinformation, Telegram spokesperson Remi Vaughn told AFP: "As noted by our CEO, the sheer volume of information being shared on channels makes it extremely difficult to verify, so it's important that users double-check what they read." Telegram was co-founded by Pavel and Nikolai Durov, the brothers who had previously created VKontakte. VK is Russia’s equivalent of Facebook, a social network used for public and private messaging, audio and video sharing as well as online gaming. In January, SimpleWeb reported that VK was Russia’s fourth most-visited website, after Yandex, YouTube and Google’s Russian-language homepage. In 2016, Forbes’ Michael Solomon described Pavel Durov (pictured, below) as the “Mark Zuckerberg of Russia.” The regulator said it has been undertaking several campaigns to educate the investors to be vigilant while taking investment decisions based on stock tips.
