I'm thrilled to be opening my own lab this Fall at the @maxplanck.de MPI for Brain Research in Frankfurt. The lab is going to investigate the neuronal and genetic underpinnings of behavioral evolution. We are hiring on all levels. Don't hesitate to share widely and reach out if interested.

Our story about flies on carousels is out in @currentbiology.bsky.social! After formally engaging the fantastic @clarahowcroft.bsky.social and integrating helpful reviewer feedback, we present a more concise story with detailed behavioural quantification and cooler videos! doi.org/10.1016/j.cu...

We have a new PhD position available; please spread the word and repost. The project will combine retina recordings, computational modeling, and optogenetics to help further develop vision restoration therapy. See here for more information: retina.uni-goettingen.de/join-the-lab/

1/ How do animals integrate different forms of learning? Our @eyalrozenfeld.bsky.social new study in Science Advances shows that active mechanisms prevent the co-formation of competing memories. Here’s what we found! 🧵👇 science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Highly recommended PhD opportunity in Mainz! Join Carlotta’s lab to work on how animals process and integrate nociceptive stimuli in a collaborative project with Emmanuel Perisse. Apply now! #PhDposition #Neuroscience #Drosophila

FlyWire #Neuroscience data (green) is now in neuronbridge.janelia.org for matching against #Drosophila light #microscopy data (magenta). Thanks to Cristian Goina, Hideo Otsuna, Rob Svirskas, Konrad Rokicki. See a match in the browser, using mixed surface / volume rendering implemented with #threejs.

We're hiring! Please share! Exciting opportunities for #PhD students, #postdocs, and #research assistants to join our team in exploring how the brain prioritizes actions in conflict. #Neuroscience #Drosophila Interested? Reach out! rezavallab.org

Almost late to the party! 🦋
