OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Neural circuits underlying motor skill learning and execution
Please contact Lukas Krone (lukas.krone@dpag.ox.ac.uk) if you’d like to arrange individual meetings with Prof. Bence Ölveczky.
Change of Venue: Small Lecture Theatre, Sherrington Building
I will introduce a motor skill learning paradigm that trains stereotyped complex motor sequences in rodents. By recording and manipulating neural activity in the basal ganglia, motor cortex and thalamus, we delineate the logic by which these circuits work together to promote the acquisition and control of task-specific motor sequences.
