The Conway Lab (NIH) and Butts Lab (UMD) are seeking a brilliant postdoc to study high-acuity vision combining large-scale electrophys and deep computational modeling. Prior experience (broadly speaking) is recommended: please email Dan Butts with CV and brief research statement.

The sky is rarely green. Why? It was fun confronting this surprising question with the BBC

The sky can be beautiful fiery colours at sunset 🌅 & a cool blue during the day 🩵 but why is the sky never green? 💚 CrowdScience took a trip to The Artic Circle to find out. With @bevilconway.bsky.social Producer: @hfishaay.bsky.social www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Why is there more than one retinotopic visual area? Spencer developed a data-driven analysis tool that sheds some light. The results are neat, helping resolve a puzzle abt monkey & human V4 & implying that spatial maps across the cortex carry information about color. Congrats Spencer, a rising star!

Happy to share our new paper, just released in the Journal of Neuroscience! Here we use a novel tool to discover new interactions between color, spatial frequency, eccentricity, and visual area in macaque monkey fMRI data. www.jneurosci.org/content/45/2... #neuroskyence #neuroscience #Science
