New paper out in @NatureComms!
Combining in vivo cell-attached, extracellular, and whole-cell recordings during behavior with a spiking RNN we show how a diversity of neural response types contributes to network function and task performance.

We have an opening for a postdoc position. Research questions will be in the field of auditory systems neuroscience, with the broad goal of dissecting the neuronal circuits for sensory processing, perception, and learning. For more info, check https://t.co/r8vNSJ6cKS
@Jared_Boyce We’ve never had a single Black science laureate, ever. Its typically not discussed because its commonplace, a known, a given. As more doors of access are opened to us to reach for the upper echelons of science, I hope this changes one day…
Sharing b/c:
1) If you're part of an underrepresented group & picked up on this - you're not imagining it.
2) It's sad to hear trainees describing familiar challenges. We can & must do better. These interactions tell you a lot about a field's culture. Let's improve it

Our lab has SEVEN presentations on the last/best day of SfN. Come start your day with us in S106, and spend the afternoon at posters G27-G31. We've got vision, audition(!), learning, memory, sequential decisions, disease models, and lots of neural populations. See you there!
We're coming to the home stretch of #SfN2024#SfN24 ! As you finalize your schedules for Tuesday and Wednesday, make sure to add two posters from @aolab_neuro:
Hey if you are still around #Sfn24 this afternoon and interested in cell type-specific cortex and striatum concurrent recordings during trial and error learning, come check out our work
@YttriLab@SfNtweets#sfn2024
Kanaka Rajan @KanakaRajanPhD sat down with @OliviaGieger to discuss how art can help explain complex ideas without diluting the science.

On Thursday August 1 we will be back with one of our most popular days of #BINW24. 🧠
NeuroRacism is all about the ways in which racism within our society can be perpetuated through neuroscience. This year we build on this premise with a panel discussion. ✊🏾✨

✨So fortunate to have mentored these two exceptionally talented junior researchers! Farewell to Jade Toth who is heading to the Neuroscience PhD program @Columbia and Aaron Zeng who is off to the EECS PhD program @MIT this fall! Can't wait to see what they do next!
We’re making a $600 million gift to the country’s 4 historically Black medical schools - which will help diversify the medical field, address racial health and wealth equity, & save lives. https://t.co/hg1ZFgRsV4
