Julia really enjoyed the Cosyne Workshops in Cascais! Catching up with old friends and new science. 

We had a great time at the Institute retreat at Schloß Beuggen together with the Bartos and Letzkus labs. 

Super excited that our project was chosen for this round of the Allen Institute Open Scope! What a privilege to get incredible two-photon data collected, curated, and delivered! Looking forward to a fun collaboration with Henning Sprekeler, the other PI on this project, and the entire team at the Allen Institute! 

Vanesa Pelcastre Neri  joins as a research assistant. Welcome!!

Had a nice time at the Freiburg christmas market with the early career scientists of the BrainWorlds Initiative

One last but not least for this crazy November: So excited that our SFB/CRC InCode between Freiburg and Berlin will be funded starting April 2024! Can't wait to get to work with this amazing group of researchers!

Chocka is presenting a poster at SfN in Washington! Go see 149.08 on Sunday afternoon to hear about contextual and laminar differences in inter-areal coherence! Also, check out Will and Masato's poster on like-to-like connectivity in V1 explaining image segmentation on Monday morning (212.07)
