Thanks to highly competent reviewers, this is a more rigorous improved version. I hope colleagues consider the counterfactual scenario in Discussion. Direct observation of the neural computations underlying a single decision elifesciences.org/reviewed-prepr… [wrong link in earlier post]

This fact played a big role in my recovery from cortical chauvinism. Those ignoring the cerebellum are missing a big piece of the puzzle.

Happy to share a new preprint by the brilliant and indefatigable Miguel Vivar-Lazo. The first of several stories we want to tell with this rich dataset, which features joint measurements of choice, reaction time, and confidence along with ensemble recordings from LIP...

Inspiring!

Couldn't agree more. So frustrating that we don't have more mechanisms for retaining our most experienced, knowledgeable, and skilled scientists. Just seems stupid strategically.

🚨 I am looking for a postdoc! We'll get into multi-site neuropixel recordings and closed-loop stimulation in NHPs performing tasks related to attention, self-control, and decision-making. DMs/emails with questions are welcome. Please share and RT! utaustin.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/UTstaff/job/AU…

We are sharing this important commentary with the research community as a Commentary piece just published in the Journal of Neuroscience (SfN Journals), written by several of us (just as representatives). Also relevant to #SimCo2024. jneurosci.org/content/44/37/…

Hello all! Please give this a read - and amplify! #SimCo2024 #ThankAMonkey #EndSufferingThruScience jneurosci.org/content/44/37/…

There's a box missing: Does it go away after spinning around three times and lifting your pencil? ----> The ephys gods were unhappy.

I'll also be an "expert" at the neuropixels booth on Sunday afternoon from 2:30–3:30pm to offer advice on using neuropixels-nhp probes. Stop by and say hello!

Proud that the last of my PhD work is finally out, with co-first author Natalie Steinemann. And check out the great insight article from Bharath Talluri and Hendrikje Nienborg: tinyurl.com/57aeuawm. Below I highlight two findings of the paper that I think are particularly noteworthy.

The long gestating final chapter of my thesis is out in SfN Journals this week as a featured cover article. Thanks to all my coauthors Goris Lab Gabe Stine Eero Simoncelli Tony Movshon and Richard Perez. Short preview below 1/7: doi.org/10.1523/JNEURO…

Thank you to all our incredible attendees for your engagement and openness throughout the week. We hope you enjoyed the opportunity to connect with fresh ideas and build new professional relationships! #rcpneuromod
