What do moonwalking flies teach us about fear, avoidance, and the brain? Come to my short talk and lab visit in #nyc @ZuckermanBrain @Columbia next Tues 7pm to find out!

Interested in dopaminergic learning, interaction of appetitive and aversive learning systems, & history-dependent modulation of learning? Come by my #cosyne2026 poster tomorrow! Now with a general model also applicable to striatal learning in mammals.

This was such a great project led by the hard-working PhD student @fatima1amin and @syncrostone from Gerber and Litwin-Kumar labs and further collab with @ikadow, @OwaldD, @SalilBidaye labs.
We demonstrate circuit mechanisms for action🏃♀️--> ☹️valence relationships in Drosophila!

🚨🚨My PhD work pre-print🚨🚨
Check it out 👇👇
'Avoidance engages dopaminergic punishment in Drosophila'
It's a great collaborative enterprise and can't thank enough to my mentors and collaborators for the kindest efforts...fingers crossed 🤞🤞

Thank you for this spotlight! @ZuckermanBrain
(1/6) A violinist and former synchronized swimmer, Jasmine Stone has spent a lot of time considering not only how we learn to move, but how our movements inform our learning. 🎻🧠 🏓
📷 Stone explains how brain networks are connected.

Recently wrote an introduction to reinforcement learning for neuroscience that I just put on arXiv for those who might find it useful: arxiv.org/abs/2311.07315
It also includes a Google Colab with all the code: tinyurl.com/4wypnc5d

Very excited to share our recent work w/ @kao_calvin & @GJEHennequin! We investigated when & why motor preparation arises in RNN models of motor control. Is preparation optimal for RNNs performing delayed reaching tasks? Spoiler: it is! (1/5) biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
