Thanks for your interest! Briefly it is a reconfigurable maze that we can change into very different types of mazes without having to move the mouse into different space. Please check out this page for more detailed descriptions: jieyusz.github.io/publication/...

It's Emx1-CRE Pals1fl/fl, but I think Esco2fl/fl can do the same thing.

These mice without cortex or hippocampus maintain a good repertoire of functions! Me too, I always enjoy the philosophical discussions about the role of cortex :p

It's an indigo bunting! First time for me seeing them on the east coast.

Very timely after today's talks!

The 10 bits/s is a proposed magnitude: so anything between 1-100 bits/s would fall into that range. We also quoted this paper and discussed the likely inflation of that number (39 bits/s), more details in Appendix A.2!

Rare bird alert! A clay-colored sparrow and a female common yellow throat were observed on campus, in front of the Chen Neuroscience Research building.

Acorn woodpeckers working hard on the campus trees.

Baby fox squirrels play fighting on the tree near Beckman mall

A female coyote (confirmed by observations of urination patterns) in front of the newly built Resnick center.

A snowy egret testing the water temperature in the lily pond. Taken yesterday!

Thank you for posting about this, fellow bird lover!
