@UCL neuroscientist studying the development of sensorimotor networks. Love of action potentials, spinal circuits and all things plasticity. Views are my own.
Adding to proof that inhibition is really everything
Our paper is finally out on our experimentally-driven neuromechanical model to explain how spinal inhibition makes you do things faster! cell.com/cell-reports/f…
Activity of spinal RORβ neurons is related to functional improvements following combination treatment after complete SCI | PNAS pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…
Last few days to apply to come work with our team- deadline 11th April. See details below.
Come join our lab as Postdoctoral Fellow in the heart of London! The project will investigate the maturation of spinal circuits and their plasticity within chronic widespread pain states. Apply here: ucl.ac.uk/work-at-ucl/se… until 11th April.

Last week to apply for a PhD position in my lab to dissect the cortico-spinal circuits for hindlimb control in healthy and Huntington mice. Email me CV, cover letter at the latest by Jan 22.
Postdoc opportunity to study cortical oscillations. It comes with unknown pleasures. Spread the word! url.td/RMdJi
This is a great opportunity to set up a lab in a wonderful city and a brilliant and collaborative scientific environment
We’re recruiting to a permanent/tenured, Lectureship/Assistant Prof in Pharmacology & Therapeutics at University of Galway. Applications by 29th May. Full details available at linkedin.com/jobs/view/lect… and universityofgalway.ie/about-us/jobs/. Pls RT & forward to anyone who may be interested
A new method to simultaneously detect hundreds of biomolecules in single cells within intact tissues could allow scientists to track the patterns of these molecules during development, aging & disease to understand how they contribute to these processes: janelia.org/news/new-techn…

New year, new job? In the context of visceral pain & naked mole-rats, we're recruiting 2 x PDRA and 1 x RA as detailed 👇 #Neuroscience
🚨 Excited to announce that we are hiring 🚨 If bowel disease, pain, & naked mole-rats are your thing then we have the perfect opportunity for you 😃 This @ChatGPTapp image shows a naked mole-rat with visceral pain, but they actually appear resistant #PainResearch
📢📢📢 Big paper out from the lab today! We show how motor circuits across cortex and thalamus do sensory planning and how this improves reaching.
Can the motor system use sensory expectations to prepare for unexpected events? Excited to share my latest work with @andpru – where we establish that sensory expectations shape neural population dynamics in motor circuits! 🧵 and paper below 1/
