🚨Very happy that my PhD work is now out in @nature.com! We discovered that evolution, by acting in the midbrain, shifted the threshold to escape in Peromyscus mice, to fine-tune defensive strategies in different environments www.nature.com/articles/s41... This was a truly collaborative effort! 🧵⬇️

Remember when in March of 2020 Trump said he didn't want to test people for COVID because he liked the numbers the way they were? That, but for climate.

National Climate Assessment Authors Are Dismissed by Trump Administration (Gift Article)

The Trump administration told researchers it was “releasing” them from their roles. It puts the future of the assessment, which is required by Congress, in doubt.

How do different sensory signals combine in the computation of cognitive maps? I’m thrilled to share our new preprint, in which we investigate this question in the context of the head-direction system: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Joint visual-vestibular computation of head direction and reflexive eye movement

Several cognitive maps have been identified, but what sensory signals drive them and how these are combined are not well understood. One such map, the head-direction representation, is believed to be ...
