My postdoc work at Isaac Bianco's lab is finally out on @eLife !

Combining #lightsheet volumetric functional imaging and a spiking network simulation, we were able to show that a simple connectivity motif in the #zebrafish #optictectum explains multiple features in ongoing population dynamics, their impact on trial-to-trial variability, and trends in experience dependent behavior.
It is a neat example of how #networkdynamics can explain why neuronal and behavioural responses vary, or how past activity sets the ever-changing background for new input (that, in turn, will make its own long-lasting splash)

Hye my next article will be about the Dawn Chorus. Does anyone study this?

Anyone else interested in #NetworkDynamics so curious to watch the growth of this #Fediverse #Mastodon
