Very grateful to the Ruth Chiquet Prize committee for recognizing our efforts and to the FMI community for their invaluable support in this project.
This year's Ruth Chiquet Prize goes to @solygamagda.bsky.social, who sent a video message, for her work on how the brain detects sensory mismatches. Read more at: www.fmi.ch/news-events/...

A new preprint from our lab with @zelechowski.bsky.social & @georgkeller.bsky.social !
Using wireless EEG + VR, we recorded visuomotor mismatch responses in freely moving humans.
Huge thanks to all participants, Keller Lab members and FMI facilities!

Dynamic basal ganglia output signals license and suppress forelimb movements - Nature
Basal ganglia output neurons fire dynamically in bidirectional and movement-specific patterns to license forelimb movements.

A few words on our latest paper and where we're heading next ⬇️
What happens when our senses defy expectations—like hearing a delayed step? A study by Magdalena Solyga and @georgkeller.bsky.social revealed how the brain handles sensory surprises, with insights that could aid psychiatric diagnosis and tracking. www.fmi.ch/news-events/...
How the brain detects surprises — and why it could matter for mental health
What happens in the brain when our senses don’t match our expectations — for example, when we take a step, but there’s no sound or the sound is delayed or distorted? A new study led by FMI neuroscient...

Consistent with the work of @jeremiahycohen.bsky.social and @mishaahrens.bsky.social labs, we find that serotonin axons in mouse visual cortex appear to signal recent visuomotor uncertainty (and unlike norepinephrine axons, they have no visuomotor mismatch responses) www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Activity in serotonergic axons in visuomotor areas of cortex is modulated by the recent history of visuomotor coupling
Visuomotor experience is necessary for the development of normal function of visual cortex (Attinger et al., 2017) and likely establishes a balance between movement-related predictions and sensory sig...
