Bence Ölveczky, PhD
Professor of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, Harvard University

I will discuss research elucidating the neural circuits underlying the acquisition and control of motor skills. Recording and manipulating neural activity in different parts of the brain of rodents trained on various tasks reveals the neural mechanisms and circuit-level logic that enable them to acquire new skills.

Refreshments will be provided!

A small group lunch with the speaker will follow this event. This lunch will be open to Harvard students, fellows, and research assistants. Please indicate on the registration form if you are interested in attending.
