Our lab is seeking a lab coordinator to work under the supervision of the Principal Investigator, James Knierim.

Yuxi recently presented her work, “Activity in the rat lateral entorhinal cortex under context-dependent odor-place rule reversals”, at a Junior Scientist Workshop on mechanistic cognitive neuroscience at Janelia.

Pel recently attended the OIST Computational Neuroscience course in Okinawa, Japan to learn the application of current pose estimation and behavioral clustering models (B-SOiD and deeplabcut) to the head-scanning behavior she is investigating for her graduate work.

Yotaro was one of 100 recipients to receive a 2023 Quad Fellowship supporting outstanding STEM master’s and doctoral students from Australia, Japan, India and the United States. He attended a summit with other recipients in Melbourne, Australia in June to promote interdisciplinary and cross-cultural interaction and collaboration over a range of STEM topics. Well done,...

Congratulations to Noah Cowan (Engineering), James Knierim (Medicine) and Amy Bastian (Medicine)  for their One Neuro Discovery grant awarded in May 2023. This award will fund research investigating whether path integration recalibration requires the cerebellum in rats, and whether this process is impaired in humans with cerebellar ataxia.
