New graduate student positions available for Fall 2023
Neural computation of cognitive behaviors by whole-brain single-neuron recording of zebrafish behaving in virtual reality The central question of Lin Lab is – how does the brain produce adaptive, flexible behavior? We take a multi-disciplinary and holistic (systems) approach to answer this question. We combine whole-brain neural imaging and computational tools on behaving animal models…
