Summer Workshop on the Dynamic Brain 2025

Description

The 2025 Summer Workshop on the Dynamic Brain is an intensive, project-based residential course with a focus on the neurobiology of sensory processing, coding, and neural population dynamics. This program is intended for researchers at the graduate and postdoctoral level with an interest in developing the intersection of their scientific knowledge and their computational skills.

Applications for 2025 will open by December 1, 2024.

Platforms accelerate our work

Surgery

This team performs a variety of surgical procedures, including stereotaxic injections and implanting chronic cranial windows and Neuropixels probes.

Explore platform

Multi-Neuropixels Electrophysiology

This platform implements pioneering technology for highly reproducible, targeted, brain-wide, cell-type-specific electrophysiology to record neural activity from defined neuron types across the brain. Analysis and quality control of the electrophysiology data are fully automated.

Explore platform

Brain-Wide Anatomy at Cellular Resolution

This platform combines innovative histology, microscopy, image handling, and machine learning to map the morphology and molecular identity of individual neurons across the whole brain at high throughput.

Explore platform

Fiber Photometry

This platform enables optical measurement of neural activity and neurotransmitter release in populations of neurons to study neural circuit dynamics in behaving animals.

Explore platform

Behavior

The Behavior platform uses advanced technology to implement a standardized, modular, multi-task virtual reality gymnasium for mice, with the goal to study brain function across different behaviors at scale.
