Our lab participated in the third annual retreat of the Special Priority Programme 2411 on cortical and subcortical sensing loops. In this special priority programme of the German Research Foundation (DFG), different groups across Germany focus on studies of cortical-subcortical interactions in mammalian brains. Our lab has been funded by this program, allowing us to[…]

Our lab was invited this year to present our work at the European Primate Veterinarians Annual Meeting, which took place right here in Tuebingen. Ziad gave a special plenary address highlighting the importance of primate investigations in neurobiology, and how the primate animal model is indispensable if we hope to fully understand the function and[…]

Our lab participated in a highly interesting workshop near Bremen this September! The workshop, titled “Cortex structure and function in mouse, monkey, and man” took place at the Hanse-Wissenschaftskolleg Institute for Advanced Study, and it was organized by Udo Ernst and Fred Wolf. The workshop focused on computational and neurobiological investigations of cortical and subcortical[…]
