At #SfN2023, Renan Costa in Lucas Pinto’s lab presents on cortex-wide activity patterns, differentiating between posterior brain regions involved in evidence accumulation and anterior ones involved in working memory. Cool & relevant to cognitive deficits in schizophrenia. VV8 now

Very excited to join the fantastic group @lucasmpinto and everybody else at the lab helped put together! I can't thank enough my previous mentors, Alexandre Dittrich, Jocelaine Silveira, Jack Byrne, and so many other mentors and colleagues, for shaping the scientist I am today!

Congratulations to Dr. Renan Costa @costamrenan, mentored by Dr. John Byrne, for successfully defending his dissertation, entitled “Analysis of the Distributed Representation of Operant Memory in Aplysia” !! 🎉

@costamrenan et al. identify low-dimensional motor modules in the neuronal population underlying Aplysia feeding, pointing to a temporal shift in module recruitment as the primary signature of operant learning. @neuromdauth https://t.co/kMdurN0ans
