And we are on Twitter! The Doctoral School in Neuroscience EPFL is constantly looking for the brightest young minds interested in studying all things #neuroscience! #PhDposition Check out our website:epfl.ch/education/phd/…

Our latest study illustrates the encoding of dozens of Descending Neurons driving walking and grooming. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

I am looking for an enthusiastic Ph.D. student for a legged robot and manipulation project at my group at KU Leuven, Belgium. Research at the intersection of control and mechanical design. The Ph.D. position is fully funded. Interested? Apply here: kuleuven.be/personeel/jobs…

I'm excited to share our (me, Femke Hurtak,Sibo Wang-Chen @wangchen.bsky.social, Pavan Ramdya) latest work uncovering how networks of descending neurons transform command-like signals into population-based behavioral control. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… (1/n)

The Couzin-Fuchs lab is recruiting a PhD student/ PostDoc to join our research on the neural basis of social plasticity in swarm-forming locusts, with Centre for the Adv Study of Collective Behaviour, Neurobiology Konstanz, More details at: couzin-fuchs-lab.com/new-positions

If you are headed to Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Neuronal Circuits this week, be sure to check out two exciting projects from the lab: First, on Thursday, Session 1, Poster 76 Matthias Durrieu will talk about object learning in flies

Second, on Saturday morning, Session 7, 9AM Victor Lobato Rios will talk about the neural mechanisms of learned sociability. He discovered that animals' default state toward one another is fear. They learn to suppress this fearful response through experience

Conspecific sociability is regulated by associative learning circuits biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #biorxiv_neursci

Being raised alone makes flies afraid of one another! But exposure to other flies makes them become sociable. Victor Lobato Rios found and recorded specific learning circuits in the brain that regulate this transition. Read more in our new preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
