    Finally, the (belated) lab anniversary party! I'm blessed to have these brilliant, kind, fun & caring people in the lab. I love them all. We've had a wonderful year of doing science (building stuff mainly!) & growing up together. To many more years of science & fun at LIM lab!

    As 2019 is fading away & life is marking 1y, I'd like to express how grateful I am to have such wonderful teammates in the lab,& supportive colleagues . 1 burning thought: I constantly wake up to "oh sh* haven't replied email X yet". My apologies to all, 🙈

    Last year, I was feeling v conflicted about Twitter, so I hid behind LIM Lab, which was not born yet! Now I'm only 1 member of this great team, & it's just wrong to pretend to be the whole lab. I still feel conflicted but I'll be me,& the lab will have their own collective handle

    Check this video - a cool and simple "lego" demonstration, to explain how much faster a group of caterpillars can travel than an individual caterpillar.

    Anne, what you are showing here is super cool! but an alternative: with Nick Roy and we looked into lapses in parametric wm task: if you build a model that includes all history i.e. sensory, reward, action then it explains 95% of the lapses!

    and this figure is from Stopfer, Jayaraman & Laurent, Neuron 2003. "Intensity versus Identity Coding in an Olfactory System", & Laurent had talked about neural trajectories (spatiotemporal activity patterns) in population dynamics of olfactory neurons in fish & insects since 96.

    What's mystery behind controversial temp dynamics of activity during short-term memory in diff exp? & Orhan show how spectrum of dynamics (persistent,sequential or chaotic) can emerge from diff constraints on a network.this is what we need more!

    Just applied for the 20th visa since the start of my PhD 14 yrs ago. All for academic purposes. 20x3(d)+60 (US greencard)=120days preparing applications ~ 1/2yr (adjusted for wkends) of sabbatical somewhere nice with no mental burden. ,
