Sad to miss #Cosyne26 but make sure to check out @sharlenmoore.bsky.social poster about astrocytes and learning!

Looking forward to this meeting! It’ll be my first time :) applications open until end of April!

🚨 We’re hiring a postdoc! 🚨 Excited for our new NiCE grant with @lauerlab.bsky.social @batwoman123.bsky.social 🎉We use a comparative approach, two-photon imaging & optogenetics to identify why bats🦇 and deer mice resist noise but lab mice don't. If you're interested, please DM or e-mail me!

The Kavli Foundation & #NSF announce four new NiCE grants to study how brains adapt to a changing world - linking genes, cells, behavior, and ecosystems. From bees to bats to jellyfish, check out the 2025 awardees. Learn more here: http://bit.ly/4fYz8vK #KavliNeuro #Neuroscience

Two-photon imaging in awake bats reveals that the inferior colliculus encodes vocalization categories as categorical primitives—spatially clustered, category-selective neurons that enable early, efficient, and structured processing @kishoreneuro.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Work from @kishoreneuro.bsky.social and Moss labs shows that the 🦇 midbrain contains spatially clustered neurons that categorize vocalizations, suggesting our brains may start making sense of communication sounds earlier in the auditory pathway❗️Kudos to Jenni for leading such exceptional work 👏🏽

🦇👂🧠Our first bat paper is out! 🧠👂🦇 How do bats tell navigation from social calls? Led by the fearless Dr. Jenni Lawlor, we used 2P imaging to show that the auditory midbrain encodes categorical primitives. Check it out @natneuro.nature.com: rdcu.be/ehEgz

“That's the thing about research: You don't always know where the payoff will be. But if you stop investing in exploration, you guarantee you will not find it.” From my JHU colleague @kishoreneuro.bsky.social hub.jhu.edu/2025/04/08/k...

Thrilled to share our work in ScienceAdvances: “Chronic ethanol exposure produces sex-dependent impairments in value computations in the striatum.” Huge thanks to Tricia @janaklab.bsky.social, Daeyeol @ungteoriz.bsky.social, Angela, and my friend Robin! www.science.org/doi/full/10....

Chronic ethanol exposure produces sex-dependent impairments in value computations in the striatum

Chronic ethanol exposure disrupts adaptive decision-making and striatal neurocomputations in a sex-dependent manner.

Researchers for first time use brain activity to determine why mice make mistakes. Article link: tinyurl.com/bdcra73e "We could tell if the animal was making a mistake or just wanted to give the other option a shot," says senior author Kishore Kuchibhotla. @kishoreneuro.bsky.social

Thrilled to share the latest paper from the lab! Huge congrats to first author Dr. Celine Drieu and the amazing team of Ziyi Zhu, Sarah Elnozahy, Joy Wang, Aaron Wang, and Kylie Fuller! Lots of fun stuff in the paper so check it out - and let us know what you think :)
