OxTalks is Changing
On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Sub-second Striatum Neuromodulatory Signaling on Multiple Spatial Scales During Learning and Action
Dr Mark Howe is Assistant Professor at the Dept of Psychological and Brain Sciences, Boston University. His laboratory aims to understand how neural dynamics in the basal ganglia contribute to motivating, selecting, and learning adaptive actions and how these dynamics become compromised in disorders such as Parkinson’s Disease. They employ a range of in-vivo optical approaches in mouse models to investigate cell type and neurotransmitter specific signals on multiple spatial and temporal scales during behavior. Dr Howe’s talk will describe evidence for spatiotemporal variations in sub-second dopaminergic and cholinergic signals in striatum which may mediate distinct functions in movement control and learning.
