AP Histology: MATLAB pipeline to process mouse histology images, including atlas alignment and annotation in CCF space.
Major updates now available: github.com/petersaj/AP_histo…
Out now in Current Biology: "Striatal visual responses increase prior to visuomotor learning"

How do the basal ganglia turn what you see into what you do?
New preprint w/ @kennethd_harris, @flicker_fusion & Matteo Carandini: we recorded across striatum, GPe & SNr in a Go/No-Go task. Striatum encodes which stimulus, GPe & SNr encode whether to act.

UCL Neuropixels Course 2022 - October 19
Join us for an online, one-day, soup to nuts set of talks focusing on the latest practicalities of using Neuropixels probes.
Free and open to all levels.

UCL Neuropixels Course 2022 - October 19
Free, online, one-day overview of practical Neuropixels use. Registration extended until Oct 11 5pm (UK).

The Peters Lab is now open at Oxford and ready to build a team!
We'll study how the brain learns and controls behavior, especially in the cortex-basal ganglia-thalamus circuit.

Neuropixels Trajectory Explorer, now also for rats: github.com/petersaj/neuropix…
Neuropixels trajectory explorer updates: atlas is now scaled and rotated to provide a closer match to an average mouse with a leveled bregma/lambda = more accurate to hit small/deep structures
(matlab) github.com/petersaj/neuropix…
Neuropixels trajectory explorer: plan Neuropixels trajectories in the mouse brain (in Matlab or as application) github.com/petersaj/neuropix…
(upgrades from previous version include CCF scaling, buttons, removed dependencies)

Postdoc job alert: we are looking for those fascinated by neuronal signals, precise behavior and models that bridge the gap between these. We promise stimulating science, fun and diversity. Also, Oxford's best view and free coffee! Apply here: my.corehr.com/pls/uoxrecruit…
