🚨First preprint from the lab!! All credit goes to Francesca Greenstreet & Hernando Martinez who co-led this project. tinyurl.com/47w98a6b We show that movement-related striatal dopamine signals encode an action prediction error, a value free teaching signal. 🧵👇 1/25

Do you want to do a postdoc in London at the fabulous SWC with me and Dr. Chunyu Ann Duan ? Do you have expertise in rodent behavior, neurophysiology and/or imaging? Interested in economics? decision-making? Multiplayer games? Let's chat in DC #sfn #neuroscience #postdoc

Please spread the word about a great opportunity at UC Davis for a computational and/or cognitive neuroscientist. Based at the Center for Neuroscience with space directly adjacent to Charan Ranganath and Mark Goldman! Need to apply by November 15 to guarantee review.

Will you be at #SfN23? Stop by our posters and talks! Stay tuned for more details 👀 Society for Neuroscience (SfN)

Have you ever done a dense grid search over neural network hyperparameters? Like a *really dense* grid search? It looks like this (!!). Blueish colors correspond to hyperparameters for which training converges, redish colors to hyperparameters for which training diverges.

Want to flexibly manipulate many cortical regions, but don't know how to build a random access optogenetics system? We present Zapit: an #opensource hardware and user-friendly software system to make this technology more widely available. Our preprint: doi.org/10.1101/2024.0…

Come work with us at SWC! Multiple postdoc positions (both theory & experiment) are available in my group, to study computational & neural principles of statistical learning in the brain (of mice, rats, humans). Apply until March 18. Please share! ucl.ac.uk/work-at-ucl/se…

Finally! This is the version of record; it's also the version to read, thanks to the review process at eLife. The finding was out of reach before macaque Neuropixels. eLife - the journal: Direct observation of the neural computations underlying a single decision doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…

“You can’t just be confident, you have to be confident about something.” Research led by Erlich Lab and Xiaoyue Zhu set out to disentangle the different kinds of confidence by designing a perceptual gambling task for rodents. ⬇️ sainsburywellcome.org/web/blog/decod…
