1/N How do neural dynamics in motor cortex interact with those in subcortical networks to flexibly control movement? I’m beyond thrilled to share our work on this problem, led by Eric Kirk @videtide1 with help from Kangjia Cai! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Basal ganglia output is a formidable bottleneck Striatum neurons project to output nuclei in a ratio ~16:1; but their targets outnumber them by up to 150 to 1. New paper on how I got to those numbers & the model of basal ganglia output they imply eneuro.org/content/12/4/E…

Please share around this Job ad : Are you excited about foraging ? do you want to analyse multidimensional large scale behavioural, metabolic and neural data ? I have a job opening for you :D I have an opening for a postdoc in my @IntBioPhysics group. The Postdoc will be…

My lab is hiring a pre-doctoral research assistant to work on the neural computations of foraging, seeking common cross-species algorithms. A @BBSRC funded project in collaboration with @brain_apps & @nathanlepora. Closes May 5th Pls share! jobs.nottingham.ac.uk/vacancy.aspx?r…
