Really excited to be chasing mice with robots with this awesome group of collaborators! @malcolmmaciver @DanielDombeck

Excited to share iMRSIV, immersive VR goggles for mice: https://t.co/eaNZwXEm3E
This work was enabled by the great team assembled, as it required both creativity and technical prowess: Dom Pinke, Greg Dobos, Gabe Dara, @DanielDombeck

Objects don’t just move, fall, and bounce—they also transform, as when logs burn or ice cubes melt. In a new paper @PsychScience, we (@talboger & @chazfirestone) explore mental representation of state-changes—and find that your mind 'melts ice' in memory! https://t.co/Gv8FirlSNq

Combined, our results show that the way auditory cortex encodes sounds shapes what we hear!

Thanks for reading, and to the people that helped make this happen: @samplingRage, Eugenio Piasini, Aaron Williams, @neurokath, Linda Garami, Ann Hermundstad, and @neimarkgeffen!

How do different environments affect how we hear?

We find that the way neurons adapt to background sounds shapes the way mice perceive sounds in different environments! (1/8)

But how does neuronal gain control affect behavior?

We found that gain is affected by the contrast of the background, but also find that when cortical gain is high, mice are better at detecting targets, and get worse when gain is low. (7/8)

@danielrossen Saw you are in Nashville the day before St. Vincent... redux? http://t.co/LoUQFm3Gzh
