https://t.co/WhfjFcVcNZ is hiring! We're looking for a postdoc and/or biostatistician with a neuroscience/EEG analysis/strong stats background & a passionate interest in unraveling the links between postoperative delirium, long term cognitive decline and dementia! Please RT
Very excited about this landmark study led by Drew Schreiner @schreinerdrew along with DIBS faculty network members John Pearson and Rich Mooney!
Opto & chemogenetic exploration of birdsong circuits guided by a computational framework. 🤩 Congratulations!
Where, exactly, does learning happen in the brain?
Out now @Nature , we identify a synaptic locus of birdsong learning and show that the circuit can be tuned to make birds learn faster, but at a cost.🧵 #neuroscience
