Takaki Komiyama will discuss how cortical circuits maintain information about the value of behavioral options across trials and transform past experience into future choices. The talk draws on longitudinal imaging and circuit manipulation in mice to examine distinct neuronal populations and local and long-range interactions in history-dependent decision-making.

The Schulze Lab at HHMI Janelia seeks a postdoctoral scientist spanning systems neuroscience, computer vision, pose tracking, behavioral machine learning, and virtual reality. The researcher will build closed-loop paradigms and brain-behavior maps to study collective behavior, social cognition, individuality, sex differences, and stress in Danionella fish.
