OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
I will present recent work from the lab related to active behaviours. First, I will discuss new tools we developed (BonVision; Lopes et al, eLife, 2021) to study active behaviours. I will then discuss recent findings on the responses of visual cortex to sudden perturbations, which suggest that feature selectivity can explain mismatch responses reported in mouse primary visual cortex (Muzzu & Saleem, Cell Reports, 2021). I will discuss our recent discoveries on how the temporal dynamics of visual responses in mouse cortex, and how these are altered by behavioural state at a single cell and population level (Horrocks & Saleem, bioRxiv).
