As the institute director, Quinlan will hold the Clark Leadership Chair in Neuroscience, which was endowed with a gift from the A. James & Alice B. Clark Foundation that was matched by the state’s Maryland E-Nnovation Initiative Fund.
A new study provides, for the first time, measurable physical evidence of diminished neural processing within the brain after a stroke. The study was conducted by Professor Jonathan Simon and his former postdoctoral researcher Christian Brodbeck, among others, and published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
International collaboration including Associate Research Scientist Elie Gurarie uses Arctic-wide data archive of animal movement to ask big-picture questions about effects of a changing world. A research paper describing the archive and case studies appears in the November 6, 2020, issue of the journal Science.
Professor Sean Carroll's new book examines unlikely chain of chance.
NIH’s High-Risk, High-Reward Research Program will fund a project that could transform efforts to understand how neurons are wired.
The President's Postdoctoral Fellowship Program is interested in scholars with the potential to bring to their research and teaching the critical perspective that comes from their educational background or understanding of the experiences of groups historically underrepresented in higher education.
Graduate student John Ficklin, Senior Lecturer Sara Lombardi and Professor Gerald Wilkinson will serve on the Council.
In "Dynamic estimation of auditory temporal response functions via state-space models with Gaussian mixture process noise," published August 19, 2020 in PLOS Computational Biology, researchers including Professor Jonathan Simon develop efficient algorithms for inferring the parameters of a general class of Gaussian mixture process noise models from noisy and limited observations, and utilize them in extracting the neural dynamics that underlie auditory processing from magnetoencephalography (MEG) data in a cocktail party setting.
We congratulate Quentin Gaudry, who was promoted to associate professor with tenure; Beth Parent, who was promoted to principal lecturer; and Bill Fagan, who was named Distinguished University Professor.
