Huge congrats to @Karyna_mi for her paper published today in @ScienceMagazine! She found that the hippocampus is really important for a key strategy we use to make decisions called hidden state inference! 🧪 🧠science.org/doi/10.1126/scie… 1/7

New preprint out! We developed a behavioural platform for the kinematic analysis of skilled whole body behaviour. Very fun collaboration with Christopher Black, Liam Browne and Rob Brownstone.

This week we are excited to welcome @MacAskillAF @ucl who will present a seminar on Thursday. He will be hosted by @NEURekaSeminars, a group of PhD students and post-docs who organise informal and discussion-led events.
All welcome, we look forward to seeing you there.

Want to start your own lab at UCL? Then check out this opportunity. I went through the process a few years ago and can only recommend it! A fantastic place to do science, especially because of amazing colleagues and collaborators.
5 Nov 2024
Applications are now open to join our fantastic department @uclbiosciences as a group leader fellow. Come start your independent group at (in our opinion) the best neuroscience department! reach out to @ibianco3 for more info!

Highly recommend @RuedigerSarah lab - asking really exciting and important qs about how we convert sensation to decision making - using all the most fun tech! I did both PhD and postdoc in a new lab - its an amazing environment to do great science with amazing mentorship. apply!!

Join our team! We're investigating how the visual cortex interacts with subcortical structures like the Superior Colliculus and Basal Ganglia to shape sensory processing and behavior in health and neurobehavioral disorders. 🔬👁️ #NeuroscienceJobs #Neuroresearch @uclnpp

We are now going to use these findings to investigate how these changes in hippocampal function might lead to the increased risk of mental illness, and how we might go about designing new treatments to help reverse this increased risk in the future 7/7

Everyone (me) now is worried it's their paper you are reviewing 😅

I was in the middle of a frustrating paper review. Needed a cleanse so I read this new masterpiece from the Magee Lab. cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092…
