*Very* excited to see the last study of my PhD making the cover of @ScienceMagazine on the macaques of @CayoSantiagoPR.

We show that ecological disturbances can alter selective pressures on social ties leading to persistent societal changes.

@CamilleTestard @Nature Such a privilege to be working with @CamilleTestard for almost 10 years. Dream team !!! 👩‍🔬🧬👨‍🔬

[Camille Testard @CamilleTestard]

So immensely proud to see my PhD work out today in @Nature!

Combining neuroscience and ethology to an unprecedented degree in primates, we uncover neural signatures of social support and grooming reciprocity—building blocks of relationships.

*THRILLED* to share our latest work with @seb_trem & co in @MichaelLouisPl1 ’s lab!

Primates maintain long-term bonds through grooming and social support. How?

Here, we reveal neural signatures of natural social behavior in freely-moving macaques.

@NicoleCRust @jcbyts @CamilleTestard I would argue that knowing whether an area is visual or auditory is a “what”, not a “how” question.

Eg. We didn’t learn through Hubel&Wiesel’s ephys that V1 is visual. We learned it through prior lesion studies. They showed “how” through ephys based on prior “what” knowledge.

@CamilleTestard *Dobzhansky, not Darwin. (I guess causal attributions can be wrong sometimes?!) 😜

[Seb Tremblay @seb_trem]

@CamilleTestard Thanks everyone for the heated debate! Just to add some oil on the fire 🔥 ...

To quote Darwin🦜:

"Nothing in neurophysiology makes sense, except in the light of causation!"

happy to chat in person at SFN!

Great blog post by @anne_churchland about our recent work with @CamilleTestard.

**NEW PREPRINT ALERT** co-authored w/ @seb_trem (yes, 2nd in a week!!)

We show that inferring a brain area’s function from neural recordings alone can be misleading, with severe consequences to the field of neuroscience.

*Thrilled* to share our latest work with @seb_trem!

Pioneering work in rodents from @anne_churchland's group showed that spontaneous movements dominate neural dynamics across the whole brain. Is this also the case in macaque monkeys ?
