Kilosort4 is now fully released in #python and we have a new logo! github.com/MouseLand/Kilo… w/ Shashwat Sridhar, Jacob Pennington and Carsen Stringer @[email protected]. #kilosort


Rutgers postdocs - Join us on March 28 from 3-5pm to hear from your peers about their research and learn how to launch your lab as a new PI! Biomedical PostDoc Professional Development and Presentation Days (PD3) Office of Postdoctoral Advancement at Rutgers Rutgers Postdoctoral Association Register here rutgers.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_er…



We love natural behavior! Our new review highlights recent work from Cris Niell, BBO lab | small things on small heads & others. Is natural behavioral all we need to understand brains? We say no & hypothesize why training critters can be hard. Pls post your training thoughts below. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

We are hiring! A 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗱𝗼𝗰 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 is available in the medicine.utah.edu/ophthalmology/… Moran Eye Center to lead studies on retinal circuits and diseases. Apply here: utah.peopleadmin.com/postings/163086 or reach out to meet in-person at #ARVO2024.

Excited to share our review on natural visual behavior and active sensing by SkybergRolf at Current Opinion in Neurobiology. There are a lot of important visual computations that get engaged once an animal is actively interacting with the environment! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…


How monkeys 'really' see the world! Wireless eye-tracking in marmosets. Incredible game changing work by VIKRAM PAL SINGH showing the dynamics of active vision in a free-moving primate Jingwen Li Jude Mitchell biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Thanks #TheBRAINInitiative for funding!






📅 Save-the-date: 22. Oct! We are excited to welcome Prof. Dr. Parker Phil Parker as our next MPLS speaker. Hosted by @BerkutayMert, the talk will give insights into the neural basis of natural visual 👁️ behaviors in psychiatric conditions🧠 This event is open to everyone!


Thrilled to be awarded the NIH Director new innovator award (DP2). I'm so excited for all the cool things we'll be working on. As always, thanks to mentors, Rutgers University and my home Rutgers CABM for all the support. With this, we're hiring! Reach out for postdocs if you're curious


When we enter a new environment, we use visual input to rapidly build an internal model of the local spatial environment. How does our brain do this? We review past literature and suggest some new ways forward in our new review in Current Biology: authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S09…
