A new study proposes that sensory systems are internally modulated to match predictable changes in stimulus caused by movement. This principle extends to multiple species, from rodents to primates. @jongant scim.ag/4qXHsSl

Excited to share my new paper! We propose that a shared computational principle governs how both rodents and primates optimize their sensory neurons during locomotion. science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…

Locomotion optimizes sensory representations through a computational principle shared by rodents...

Behavior modulates the activity of sensory systems in multiple ways: from gain changes in individual neurons to changing interactions in neural populations. These effects are not universal; while...

Janelia creates big datasets that are valuable resources for neuroscientists—but digging into that data takes a lot of computational power. On the @AWSCloud blog, Konrad Rokicki explains how his team has used cloud computing to scale up data analysis. aws.amazon.com/blogs/archite…
