I am looking to hire a great postdoc to join our lab in sunny Eugene at the University of Oregon for fun behavioral/fMRI experiments on sensorimotor control in young and older adults. Please share/get in touch if interested! pages.uoregon.edu/mmar/
I am recruiting graduate students for the experimental side of my lab @mcgill.ca for admission in Fall 2026!
Get in touch if you're interested in how brain circuits implement distributed computation, including dopamine-based distributed RL and probabilistic representations.
Thread coming soon, but be the first to read the latest from @franziau.bsky.social!
Thrilled that our paper is out today in Nature!

Basal ganglia output is a formidable bottleneck
Striatum neurons project to output nuclei in a ratio ~16:1; but their targets outnumber them by up to 150 to 1.
New paper from me, on how I got to those numbers & the model of basal ganglia output they imply

1/ Why do patients with late-stage cancer lose motivation & sink into apathy?
🔥 Our new Science paper shows chronic inflammation activates a cytokine-sensing brain circuit that lowers motivation. Huge team effort: Aelita Zhu, Sarah Starosta, Pignatelli & Janowitz labs! 🧵

We're disappointed to see Ben Barres's powerful book "The Autobiography of a Transgender Scientist" among the ~400 titles removed from the Naval Academy Library. Needless to say, we're proud to have published his book and will keep it — and his memory — alive.
Now out in JNP: journals.physiology.org/doi/full/10....

New preprint out! We developed a behavioural platform for the kinematic analysis of skilled whole body behaviour. Very fun collaboration with Christopher Black, @liamebrowne.bsky.social and Rob Brownstone.
Inspired by @sciencehomecoming.bsky.social , I wrote an op ed for my hometown newspaper (the Lexington Herald-Leader) about the importance of protecting science and universities from destruction by the government. Think about writing one of your own! www.kentucky.com/opinion/op-e...
Check out my postdoc work at Ariel Levine’s lab, hot and fresh, describing how you build a dorsal horn!

Gorgeous image and a wonderful thread from @rbrianroome.bsky.social on our new work 🥳
Best figure I've seen to demonstrate that climate change and migration are tightly linked. You can't ignore one and think you'll be able to prevent the other. It's either delusional or plain cruel.
The brain drain is opening
This is good for trainees, glad if they can find ways to pursue their dreams.
Applications are now open! 3-week courses: Comp Neuro and Deep Learning. 2-week courses: NeuroAI and Comp Tools for Climate Science.
🚨 Neuromatch Academy Course Applications are OPEN for 2025!! 🚨
Get your application in early to be a student or teaching assistant for this year’s courses!
Applications are due Sunday, March 23.
