Super excited to share a newest cross-species collaboration on causal role of the mediodorsal thalamus on belief volatility/paranoia. Phil Corlett, Praveen Suthaharan, Summer Thompson, Vincent Costa Stephanie Groman Chris Mathys, friend of abundance Rudebeck Lab, and more not on X! cell.com/cell-reports/f…

Super excited to share new work! Fully automated platform (scalable) for studying cooperation in freely moving marms. Hope many will adopt this platform. Multi-PI collab work w/ Anirvan Nandy and Monka Jadi. Led by super talented Olivia Meisner . doi.org/10.7554/eLife.… eLife - the journal

Nice write up of our “face preference in SC” paper by the NIH. Thanks! Published today in Neuron: cell.com/neuron/fulltex… #tweeprint here: x.com/leorkatz/statu…

New paper in The Royal Society. Amazing work by Dori Grijseels. Data from 40+ monkeys shows that turn-taking is not a coupled oscillator but stochastic. A features-based model more accurately accounts for the vocal behavior, including in multicaller contexts royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

Excited to have our paper on semantic encoding during language comprehension out in Nature this week! nature.com/articles/s4158…

OpEd in InsideSources by Doris Tsao, Tony Zador and I laying out the case for support of the BRAIN initiative. On the cusp of so much, this really matters. Critical Brain Research Faces a Massive Funding Shortfall dcjournal.com/critical-brain…

We have news: #S4SN2025 will be from September 23rd to 26th 2025 in beautiful Lisbon, Portugal! ☀️ Stay tuned for more info and mark your calendars! 🗓️

Thrilled to share a new paper just out in Cell Reports, led by the awesome Sachira Denagamage (recent graduate from Yale Interdepartmental Neuroscience Program)!! We find evidence for widespread pre-saccadic receptive field remapping in area V2: cell.com/cell-reports/f…

A very thoughtfully written Preview of our recent work by ⁦⁦Erin Rich⁩ and Joe Simon! cell.com/neuron/abstrac…

A bit late to the party, but I’m very excited to share the first publication from my thesis work at Caltech ! nature nature.com/articles/s4158… x.com/uelirutishause…

Deadline to register for SimCo 2024 is 8/28 (1 week to go!). We are nearly at max capacity, so only a few seats are left. Register now and come join us for another incredible meeting focused on NHP brain research simiancollective.com/2024-conference SimianCollective

Scott Imbrie, who has two implants in the motor regions of his cerebral cortex, gives a tribute to Sliman Bensmaia at #SimCo24.

Moving talk from Michelle about how basic neuroscience research changed her life. She had debilitating tremors for more than 50 years and after her DBS surgery they stopped "like a light switch." #SimCo24

Open #postdocposition! Come work with me on NIH BRAIN funded research to discover the functional role & neural basis of rapid turns during olfactory search. Please share! Video: youtube.com/watch?v=clV18e… Paper: cell.com/current-biolog… With Bing Wen Brunton, Michael Dickinson

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/…
