🚨 We’re hiring a postdoc! 🚨 Excited for our new NiCE grant with @lauerlab.bsky.social @batwoman123.bsky.social 🎉We use a comparative approach, two-photon imaging & optogenetics to identify why bats🦇 and deer mice resist noise but lab mice don't. If you're interested, please DM or e-mail me!

Two-photon imaging in awake bats reveals that the inferior colliculus encodes vocalization categories as categorical primitives—spatially clustered, category-selective neurons that enable early, efficient, and structured processing @kishoreneuro.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Work from @kishoreneuro.bsky.social and Moss labs shows that the 🦇 midbrain contains spatially clustered neurons that categorize vocalizations, suggesting our brains may start making sense of communication sounds earlier in the auditory pathway❗️Kudos to Jenni for leading such exceptional work 👏🏽

🦇👂🧠Our first bat paper is out! 🧠👂🦇 How do bats tell navigation from social calls? Led by the fearless Dr. Jenni Lawlor, we used 2P imaging to show that the auditory midbrain encodes categorical primitives. Check it out @natneuro.nature.com: rdcu.be/ehEgz

Wrote this short piece for our university newsletter (the Hub) in defense of curiosity and the partnership between Universities and federal government

Thrilled to share our work in ScienceAdvances: “Chronic ethanol exposure produces sex-dependent impairments in value computations in the striatum.” Huge thanks to Tricia @janaklab.bsky.social, Daeyeol @ungteoriz.bsky.social, Angela, and my friend Robin! www.science.org/doi/full/10....

Researchers for first time use brain activity to determine why mice make mistakes. Article link: tinyurl.com/bdcra73e "We could tell if the animal was making a mistake or just wanted to give the other option a shot," says senior author Kishore Kuchibhotla. @kishoreneuro.bsky.social

Thrilled to share the latest paper from the lab! Huge congrats to first author Dr. Celine Drieu and the amazing team of Ziyi Zhu, Sarah Elnozahy, Joy Wang, Aaron Wang, and Kylie Fuller! Lots of fun stuff in the paper so check it out - and let us know what you think :)
