Neuroscience researcher @DukeNeuro studying motor learning and the cerebellum. Views are my own.

If you are a current post-doc or senior graduate student interested in the helping advance future cerebellar therapeutics, check out the @RaynorProject - with an upcoming conference exploring these ideas. A few more days left to apply! https://t.co/iKGi0DsEhZ

[David J. Herzfeld @herzfeldd]

Check out the amazing work of @SillitoeLab @HeijdenLab showing unique codes for movement disorders in cerebellum! Their work in @eLife is https://t.co/Dnssa7oJQa with a brief write-up on how this could open the doors to future therapeutics by yours truly https://t.co/gnK5njH5Fg

[Sillitoe Lab @SillitoeLab]

Check out our new work exploring how movement disorders are encoded in the firing patterns of cerebellar nuclei neurons; and how inducing those firing patterns can reproduce the phenotypes, ranging from #dystonia to #tremor and #ataxia

Excited to share new work with @steve_lisberger and @MatiJoshua1 on rate and synchrony codes in the cerebellum during pursuit. Long story made short - we see little evidence for synchrony in general, synchrony modulation during movement, or synchrony effects in downstream neurons

Just arrived at #SfN2022, so it seems like the time to announce that I’lll be starting my lab at the King’s CDN @dev_neuro next spring on a @wellcometrust fellowship. Science is a team sport, and I feel humbled by the support I’ve gotten from mentors and friends over the years.

[David J. Herzfeld @herzfeldd]

@reziliusReza Check out my poster at SfN, Reza! We are labeling cerebellar units using layer, waveform, and regularity properties (and then we validate the labeling with CCGs with known Purkinje cells and mouse optogenetics). Fun stuff!

[Akshay Markanday @AkshayMarkanday]

..Yes, these rarely firing complex spikes are actually rich with information!
Check out our latest work https://t.co/QD4FcVS4DC on #cerebellar complex spikes at #PLOSBiology for more details.

P.S. Shoutout to Junya Inoue for his great efforts! 👏👏

[COURT HULL @theHullLab]

New preprint review, "The Cerebellar Cortex". We'd love to get feedback before it goes to production at Annu. Rev. Neurosci.! https://t.co/97IgHJYBMU

[David J. Herzfeld @herzfeldd]

@KordingLab @reziliusReza Thanks so much, Konrad! 🙏

[David J. Herzfeld @herzfeldd]

@mjaztwit Such kind words, @mjaztwit! Thank you. 🙏

[David J. Herzfeld @herzfeldd]

@schoppik I'll definitely take you up on that! Thanks so much! Thankfully @steve_lisberger has already given me some great Steve-style feedback. I can barely imagine how well the research statement will read with feedback from TWO Steves!

[David J. Herzfeld @herzfeldd]

Yep! I am officially on the TT position job market! Both excited and nervous to begin this new adventure.

[Reza Shadmehr @reziliusReza]

If you are looking to hire a bright young neuroscientist and engineer, one of the best that I have ever mentored, David Herzfeld @herzfeldd is looking for an opportunity to start his lab.

[David J. Herzfeld @herzfeldd]

Exciting work from @reziliusReza and @esedaghatnejad! This is an incredibly hard problem for cerebellar research - really looking forward to trying this new package!

[Reza Shadmehr @reziliusReza]

Spike detection in the cerebellum can be difficult because complex spikes vary in waveform from one event to the next. To help, 3 labs came together and pooled data from 3 species, 300+ recordings, and developed a tool called #Psort, a free software.

I'm really grateful to be able to share our (@jangjihoon_1, @KoenVdvoorde, @hannahsheahan, Lonneke Teunissen, @herzfeldd, @reziliusReza) new work out at @NatureHumBehav - where we investigate why people don't fully adapt to sensorimotor perturbations: https://t.co/tZQCXA2lkp

[Scott Albert @_scottalbert]

How do changes in explicit strategy impact implicit learning? We've (@reziliusReza @jangjihoon_1 @adrianhaith @blamlab @vdellamaggiore @TaloLerner) been thinking about that here:

Come shape the future of neuroscience! My home department of Physiology & Biophysics at the University of Colorado SOM is hiring a new Chair. Such a wonderful place to work, live, grow. rt ok! https://t.co/RGLhC1s9po

[David J. Herzfeld @herzfeldd]

Great new work led by Nathan Hall and @steve_lisberger on the trials and tribulations of spike sorting multichannel data. Worth a read for suggestions about how to look at and evaluate the output of multiple sorters (especially important if you are using multicontact probes).

Evaluation and resolution of many challenges of neural spike-sorting: a new sorter https://t.co/MzNZCEG50n #biorxiv_neursci

[David J. Herzfeld @herzfeldd]

I'm super excited to host Dr. Abigail Person (@personal_neuro) as she "visits" @DukeNeuro today. Looking forward to what I'm sure will be an amazing talk at 12PM Eastern on how the cerebellum contributes to arm movements!
