Presenting a poster at #SfNConnectome21: (P291.09) Internal models of task structure shape mesolimbic and dorsomedial striatal dopamine. Drop by for the live session tomorrow (12 Jan) 11-11:30am EST or see (and hear) the poster at any time during the conference. Society for Neuroscience (SfN)

I’ve used pyControl a fair bit, both back in Oxford and now for a project here at Janelia. It’s always been a pleasure to use - don’t know of a better python-based approach for running behaviour!

You may not always get what you see. Interested to know why? Join Mark Walton and your ViDA community to learn and hear about asymmetric reporting and updating value by dopamine during inference-guided choice.

Excited to (finally!) have the last big chunk of my PhD work with Mark Walton up online in preprint form: Nucleus accumbens D1-receptors regulate and focus transitions to reward-seeking action biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

For all my mates in the UK that are attending #ViDA2021 here is the adapted time schedule. Tagging some of you so you can RT😊 Steph Cragg Armin Lak Marta Blanco Pozo Tara Diviney

Starting the year right with a new paper on bioRxiv with @nico_neurophys Dario Sarra and Zach Mainen !

Excited to share our Perspective on cerebellar reward signals. We discuss the discovery of these signals and progress we and our colleagues have made on understanding them. Hope you enjoy! #cerebellum4eva

Thanks to you, all the families I posted about have now found their sponsors! 🎉 I need Twitter to do its magic one more time for a very lovely family from Donetsk, one of the most affected regions. The mother was an accountant and she has two very cute kids 8 and 10-year-old.

Fun evening talking about dopamine

Many congrats to our lab head Mark (or we should say Prof Walton)!!🎉🍾

Please spread the word: my old lab, Walton Lab at University of Oxford is looking for a postdoc to work on a very cool foraging project. Can massively endorse both the people and the science. Job ad here: my.corehr.com/pls/uoxrecruit…

We have an RA/tech post in Oxford for rodent neuro. Thomas Akam is also advertising for an RA to work on related projects. Mice making flexible decisions. Hippocampal/frontal recordings/manips. Would could be cooler? my.corehr.com/pls/uoxrecruit… my.corehr.com/pls/uoxrecruit…

For this summer, we will be inviting three undergraduate interns to support our ongoing software development projects for processing large scale movies. Last year's project: openreview.net/forum?id=7iybU… Details below
