#PhDone! 🎓 Congratulations Dr Shivangi Verma! 🎊 @shivangiv10.bsky.social from Prof Vatsala Thirumalai's lab successfully defended her thesis! 🧵👇Check out the thread to learn more about her work on understanding how neuronal networks are sculpted in the cerebellum during development 🧠 (1/5)

Applications are still open for NS&B 2025! We will run from June 8- July 21. Applications are due FEB 1st. Financial assistance is available an applications are need blind. For more info see mbl.edu/nsb.

Current students at IISER Mohali interviewed our alumnus @rhythmicspikes.bsky.social . Lovely interview and a good example of how serendipity can lead to discoveries and a fun career. manthanmagazine.wordpress.com/2025/01/06/i...

Check out @shivangiv10.bsky.social latest insights on how synaptic pruning relates to finessing the sensory-motor mismatch and why it’s important for #behavior. Loved the experimental design and approach 👏🏽 🧠👩🏽‍🔬

Big paper from @paigel.bsky.social in our lab: Sensory feedback is always crucial for proper development, right? Wrong! Crazier still, the motor system is the slowest part of a developing reflex circuit! Surprises abound in this bluetorial c’mon along…. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... 1/19

Developmental synaptic pruning in the olivo-cerebellar circuit sculpts predictive processing https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.01.01.630979v1

Excited to share the preprint of my PhD work in Vatsala's lab at NCBS_Bangalore! Find more about why removing synaptic connections during development is just as important as making new ones!!🧠✂️ #zebrafish #cerebellum #Neuroscience
