Our research builds on our traditional strengths in the fields of neuroscience, physiology, and biophysics, and embraces new fields that reflect our diverse scientific pursuits.
🔬 This Thursday: Greg Field, PhD (@UCLA Ophthalmology) on "Efficient coding and early visual processing" — exploring how the visual system processes signals and the surprising diversity of cell types. Co-hosted by the Vision Training Grant. Don't miss it!

Excited to share our Department of Neurobiology and Biophysics' new visual identity! Three panels capturing the essence of our work:
🔬 Cellular level
🧬 Molecular level
📊 Systems level
All inspired by the stunning PNW - trees, mountains, and water reflecting where science meets nature.

🎨 What a beautiful day! NBIO's inaugural Art Swap filled the Temy Kennedy Conference Room with incredible creativity and vibrant energy. Much of the art was created by former PBIO Research Scientist Paul Newman. Amazing to see science and art come together! #ArtSwap #ScienceAndArt #CommunityNBIO

🤔 Thinking about transitioning to industry but not sure how? The CNC hosted an event last week to share some tips. Bing Brunton showed us how to retool a CV into an industry-appropriate resume & CNC alum Anatoly Buchin shared wisdom gained from his career trajectory and recent job search. 🧠
