Visual neuroscientist. Interests in active vision, foveal processing, cortical circuits and optogenetics, computational models, encoding in neural populations
Our very own Lisa Kroell just won the Dissertationspreis #Adlershof 2023! If you know her work and have ever seen one of her impeccable presentations, you know why. Way to go, Lisa! https://t.co/v3jqzbRCU0

Recordings in visual cortex (V1) of mice and marmosets revealed neurons respond to gaze shifts in a sequence, such that new visual input is processed in a “coarse” to “fine” manner

1/ 🧠🔍 New research alert! We've trained a neural network to predict brain responses to images, and then “dissected” the network to examine the selectivity of spatial properties across high-level visual areas. Discover more about our work: https://t.co/lyKsCZpJwj
It’s a wrap! Thank you to everyone who attended the Primate Neurobiology Conference at the @DPZ_eu . Special thanks goes to our keynote speakers @judefmitchell , @PrutYifat and @AldoGenovesio . It was a great experience with fruitful & fun exchanges. Until next year in Tübingen!
Thrilled to see this published. Humans possess very fine motor knowledge of how their eyes move during fixation and use it to infer spatial relations. Vision and motor behavior are inextricably coupled. https://t.co/yRwWfRgqct
Are you interested in discovering how the brain controls movements?
Do you want to do rigorous behavioral experiments combined with neurophysiology?
Would you like to work with these beautiful, gentle animals?
Do you have excellent computational skills?
Please email me your CV.
Excited to present our new preprint! We sequenced 2.4 million marmoset brain cell nuclei across major neocortical and subcortical structures. Here’s what we learned.

This paper by Luke Shaw with Drs. K.H. Wang and @judefmitchell is very cool. @DeepLabCut tracking of marmosets capturing crickets, showing they predictively adapt to cricket velocity and update reaches online with a visuomotor delay of only ~80 ms! https://t.co/6jgyBUpvi1
A dynamic sequence of visual processing initiated by gaze shifts. So proud of this incredible group for everything that we have achieved together over the last few years https://t.co/X63sYJnSIC
Happy to share a preprint on our latest work - measuring visual coding in freely moving mice! @elliott_abe and @CosmouseVision mapped receptive fields and demonstrated the impact of eye/head position. 1/n https://t.co/iWFrpRsZQx
Excited to share our connectomic search for direction selective retinal circuits in primate. We found a candidate ON dsRGC homolog that links starburst amacrine cells to the accessory optic system to complete an evolutionarily ancient circuit for gaze stabilization @jay_neitz
We sought to test whether running modulates primate V1 like it does in mouse, but ended up fascinated by shared gain modulations and their relation to behavior. We think this lays groundwork for extracting general cross-species principles https://t.co/NGPmtNWzxs
