Hello, world! I have some work I’m very excited to share with you. We've been cooking it over the past four years, starting when I was confined to a studio apartment during Covid lockdowns. Collab w/ @jmacshine @eli_j_muller @DrBreaky @LabEthan doi: 10.1101/2024.06.22.600219

New banger from @DrBMunn and co. TL/DR: coarse-graining multi-species calcium data allows us to link across scales and make some inferences about how information processing might work in the brain. Super fun collab with @eli_j_muller @DrBreaky & Ethan Scott

A thing we did finally came out @Nature! 100% the result of the extraordinary vision and hard work of PhD student @SuppAnya, who slogged through years of thankless technique building before making some important sleep discoveries. nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Thanks to @BaierLab for including me. We've reviewed the regions, neurons, and connections of zebrafish vision, highlighting the parallel (thus the plural "systems") and converging processing of diverse stimuli, also touching on plasticity and context. annualreviews.org/content/jo…

When I was a postdoc, you could have reviewed zebrafish vision with 50 citations. Now, 200 is woefully inadequate. Apologies for all the worthy studies that we couldn't fit and for the necessary focus with which we've covered this exciting, expanding field.
