What neural mechanisms underlie flexible decision-making? How are these mechanisms altered by genetic mutations? I am recruiting a PhD student to combine experiments and computational methods at @sidb_edinburgh in beautiful Edinburgh! Feel free to get in touch with any questions!

I am honored to be selected as a 2023 @SFARIorg BTI fellow and absolutely thrilled to be among this extraordinary group of scientists! This is a life changing award. My future lab will explore a deep connection between motor cognition and developmental challenges seen in autism.

Oh no, I can't believe I only thanked @brody_lab for the environment! I also want to thank my wonderful Mentor, Carlos Brody himself!!! We worked on a lot of this together, and it was super-fun to do so! Carlos was an inexhaustible source of guidance, wisdom and support! 🙏 🙏 🙏

Very proud to have been a part of this monumental effort by @marinopagan . It's hard to overstate the scope of Marino's innovations to produce this paper. He's also super fun to work with and I'm looking forward to collaborating when he gets his own lab.

👇This is a huge generalization of "Mante, Sussillo." There are different solutions to recurrent gating, & @marinopagan showed that neural pulse-evoked trajectories explain individual behavior. Marino is on the job market. You'd be nuts not to hire such a talented scientist!

Second, with the support of a @SFARIorg Bridge to Independence Award, I am extremely excited to use this task, and these systems and computational approaches to study the role of genetic mutations in cognitive flexibility in rat models of autism! sfari.org/2021/08/19/sfa… 16/16

I am super excited about two future directions for this research. First, I will use high-density probes to record large neural populations across brain areas as rats solve the task, and to directly study recurrent dynamics using latent-based approaches (e.g. LFADS + PLNDE). 15/16
