Thanks to everyone who came to my @CortexClub Work In Progress (WIP) talk today. Lots of great questions and suggestions!
If you didn't get to see my work at SFN, here's your chance! I will be presenting as part of Oxford's Cortex Club on Friday at 1:00 pm
With #SFN2024 coming to an end, I just wanted to say thank you to everyone that came to see my poster! There were some really insightful comments and suggestions that I'm excited to take on board
Always great see my work being showcased by @BrukerFM at @SfNtweets, reaching a wide range of people in academia and industry.
If YOU want to work together to communicate your science/technology to large audiences simply and effectively, get in touch!
If you are at @SfNtweets, check out my poster tomorrow AM on my PhD work so far with the brilliant @MichaelBLynn_ and @ArminLak.
Come see how we combine optogenetics, multi-NP probe insertions and complex behavior to investigate how perceptual signals propagate through the brain.

If you are at #sfn2024, come check poster M17 this afternoon to see how we used gated deep neural networks and all-optical experiments during learning to unveil a new role of cortical serotonin. A collaboration between @SaxeLab @stefsmlab @Interneuron_Dev @paqio and Trevor Sharp

Three days of brainstorming, useful discussions, team building & fun with amazing lab members. In vivo daily experiments and childcare duties made it hard to organise this before. The very first of very many LakLab retreats to come. The team has amazing cooks (except for me 😂)
With #FENS2024 coming to an end, I want to say thank you to everyone that came to see my poster! There were so many great questions and useful bits of feedback. I'm excited to dive into them when I get back to Oxford, so stay tuned for what happens next with the project!

Excited to share our updated preprint characterizing a novel, slow recurrent circuit motif in raphe!

Check out our FENS poster on perceptual signals in subcortical networks, led by fantastic DPhil student @NeuroRussell!
(PS03-27AM-115) @NeuroRussell @MichaelBLynn_ on cortico-cortical vs cortico-striatal signal propagation during decision making.
If you are attending @SLBconference today, check out my FIRST conference poster (A21) presented by @paqio. If you do all-optical interrogation, these results WILL be relevant to how you design experiments moving forwards.
Multiphoton microscopy, opto tagging, Neuropixels and complex behaviour. What more could you want?
New job for 2024? Lak Lab @UniofOxford is hiring a (senior) tech/lab manager. Needed: neuro enthusiasm, lab or software skills & a relevant degree (undergrad or PhD). Contract 4 years, salary based on experience. Come work with my favourate people. Happy holidays & Plz RT.
