Audrey Sederberg joins the Stanley Lab
Audrey has her PhD from Princeton University in theoretical biophysics, where she analyzed the structure of correlated variability in developing visual cortical circuits and constructed models that explored the role of inhibition in these circuits. Since then, She has worked in the MacLean and Palmer labs at the University of Chicago, where she used two-photon … More Audrey Sederberg joins the Stanley Lab

Research Fellowships from the DFG (German Research Foundation) are intended to enable researchers at an early stage of their scientific career to carry out a clearly defined research project at a place of their choice abroad or to acquaint themselves with new scientific research methods. The duration of funding is up to 2 … More Post-Doc Chris Waiblinger receives German Research Fellowship
New publication – Information Coding through Adaptive Gating of Synchronized Thalamic Bursting
It has been posited that the regulation of burst/tonic firing in the thalamus could function as a mechanism for controlling not only how much but what kind of information is conveyed to downstream cortical targets. Yet how this gating mechanism is adaptively modulated on fast timescales by ongoing sensory inputs … More New publication – Information Coding through Adaptive Gating of Synchronized Thalamic Bursting
