Interested in doing a Ph.D. to work on building models of the brain/behavior? Consider applying to graduate schools at CU Anschutz:
1. Neuroscience www.cuanschutz.edu/graduate-pro...
2. Bioengineering engineering.ucdenver.edu/bioengineeri...

You could work with several comp neuro PIs, including me.

Excited to share my latest work with @jonathanamichaels.bsky.social @diedrichsenjorn.bsky.social & @andpru.bsky.social!
We asked: How does the motor cortex account for arm posture when generating movement?

Compositional neural dynamics during reaching
The complex mechanics of the arm make the neural control of reaching inherently posture dependent. Because previous reaching studies confound reach direction with final posture, it remains unknown how...

We’re excited about this project! We present a model of motor savings without the need for context.

Excited to share my latest work with @oliviercodol.bsky.social, supervised by @jonathanamichaels.bsky.social and @paulgribble.bsky.social, where we introduce a context-free model of savings in motor learning:

A Context-Free Model of Savings in Motor Learning
Learning to adapt voluntary movements to an external perturbation, whether mechanical or visual, is faster during a second encounter than during the first. The mechanisms underlying this phenomenon, k...
