fantastic opportunity to join the lab of our amazing new Group Leader @RuedigerSarah in investigating the neuronal basis of visually guided behaviour!
25 Nov 2024
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!!

new paper published in @ScienceMagazine from @MacAskillAF in @uclnpp @uclbiosciences @UCLLifeSciences. How mice make decisions using hidden state inference.
22 Nov 2024
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

Congrats to @KorteNils in Attwell lab for their exciting new paper in @NatureNeuro - they find that treating Alzheimers disease model mice with a calcium channel blocker alleviates many of the key symptoms associated with brain blood flow and hypoxia. nature.com/articles/s41593-0…

Why does #brain asymmetry exist? What might happen if that asymmetry were lost?
@uclcdb's Stephen Wilson & @uclnpp's Isaac Bianco hope to provide some answers, using #zebrafish, supported by @wellcometrust's Discovery Research Awards
