Excited to publish for the first time in Imaging Neuroscience EiC - our new findings from EEG and pupillometry highlighting parallel working memory systems for audition (& temporal order) and vision (& spatial location). led by Justin Fleming w/ Lab in Multisensory Neuroscience Boston University Hearing Research Center SHBT at Harvard

Come and work with us!

Big news, I just accepted an offer to join Baylor College of Medicine's Dept of Neuroscience as an asst professor!

I start Fall 2024, and I'm looking for phd students, postdocs, and research scientists to join me studying learning in neural populations.

Four weeks until the deadline!

This is unbelievable. How can a country that cares about the future begrudge $300 million to unlock the secrets of the mind and cure the most devastating ailments of the soul? This is 0.0035% of the federal budget. If you make 100k a year, this works out to $3.50. A coffee to

Great new contribution to foraging theory from the McGinley Lab!!! Excited to dive in - this one has been a long time coming. Congrats to all involved!

A collaborative working group of neuroscience researchers from Carnegie Mellon University and University of Pittsburgh examine what happens in the brain when it’s presented with learning a new task, but also asked to recall a familiar one.

What does rigorous, #fair , and high-quality human #neuroscience look like? This! Excellent video from my friend / colleague Cassie Eng, describing her journey to learn best practices for curly hair in #fNIRS research. Please share!

#couldntbemoreproud ! Way to go Dr Meredith Schmehl, PhD !

Two years ago, my mentee was diagnosed with cancer very young. It was sudden and unexpected. She was determined as heck though and filled with grit. Once things settled a little I offered her a project to work on to keep her distracted with NO timeline. 🧵 1/10

Every female physician felt this in her core.

Absolutely spectacular new work from the Polley Lab (and the legendary kameron clayton) with a detailed analysis of the relationship between sound and facial movements!!! This one will be critical for the field!

Very happy to see this finally out — this work has been in the making for many years, and bringing it all together in models of dynamic neural and behavioral change has been my personal highlight of the AUDADAPT European Research Council (ERC) project

#PittCSD Dr. Hari Bharadwaj will be presenting at the 2024 Senior Vice Chancellor’s Research Seminar series on Friday, April 12th at 12PM! His talk is titled 'Tuning into Clarity: Dissecting Diverse Inner-Ear Pathologies in Hearing Loss'. #PittSHRS

Looking forward to this!

Marius and Carsen are the GOATs. Beautiful new work!

'Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University, the University Hospital Bonn and the University of Bonn have created an open-source platform known as A-SOiD that can learn and predict user-defined behaviors, just from video.'

1/5 NATURE METHODS TWEETPRINT! Do you have a specific, nuanced, or rare set of behaviors you want to extract from video/pose estimation data? Want to extract those better and with a tenth of the training?

Regardless of species, A-SOiD is here to help

Excited to have this out in the world :)

Goal-driven models in neuroscience usually specify the ‘right’ inputs and outputs for neural networks. We go one step further: we look at motor pathways as a controller for limb dynamics. This helps our models generalize much better!

Super excited to share the first preprint from my lab, looking at auditory cortical necessity and categorical learning. This one has been cooking for a while and has really set the stage for several other ongoing projects in the lab (stay tuned)!
