We are happy to announce the recruitment of our new group leader, @fionamuellner.bsky.social. Coming from the Institute of Molecular and Clinical Ophthalmology Basel, Fiona will investigate how neural circuits at the brain’s first central processing stage—the thalamus—shape the way we see. Welcome!
