David Anderson Vilas Distinguished Achievement Professor of Mathematics University of Wisconsin, Madison   Location: David Rittenhouse Labs, A4   Relating network structure to dynamical properties in biological interaction systems   Models of cellular processes are often represented with networks that describe the interactions between the constituent molecules. These networks are usually incredibly complex. However, hidden […]

Mark Histed Unit on Neural and Computational Behavior NIMH   Cortical sensory processing at the single neuron level: circuits, computations, and behavior   During any behavior, many thousands or millions of neurons in the brain change their activity. To understand how the brain controls behaviors, it is important to identify the computational steps required, and […]

The effect of left hemisphere stroke on statistical language learning   Human learners are known to capitalize on the statistical regularities in their environment in order to acquire both linguistic and non-linguistics patterns. Neuroimaging studies in healthy young adults associate this kind of learning with the left inferior frontal gyrus (LIFG), left arcuate fasciculus, and […]
