We are recruiting postdoctoral fellows to study the neurobiology of collective behavior in schooling fish, using virtual reality and brain-wide imaging in Danionella. If you have experience in systems neuroscience and interest in neuroethology, please reach out (and share!)

it was fun to write this with Jo-Hsien Yu and Julia Napoli, and share our thoughts about this emerging field of study

Published today in Current Biology: How can individual brains share information to produce a single, coherent behavior? UC San Diego neurobiologists led by Matt Lovett-Barron's lab have uncovered the roots of group behavior in the brains of schooling fish. go.ucsd.edu/3zV7nmU

Climate change is rapidly reshaping our oceans, stressing the nervous systems of marine organisms that have evolved over millions of years. 🌊📈 Scientists now face a critical question. How does marine life sense and respond to their changing world? 🧵

Excited for this collaboration and new direction for our lab, to study marine neurobiology in our rapidly changing oceans today.ucsd.edu/story/uc-san-d…

my PhD work is officially out ✨ we wanted to see if vagus nerve stimulation could improve sensory perception once animal’s performance stabilized

Congratulations Katie Martin !!
