Back to Bluesky to share the most exciting news: my postdoctoral research is now published in Neuron!
We used cricket hunting to show how ethological learning persistently rewires juvenile (but not adult!) visual circuits by co-opting homeostatic plasticity.

Ethological learning during the critical period resets synaptic setpoints in mouse binocular visual cortex
Bissen et al. show that prey capture learning profoundly reshapes visual cortical
circuitry and function during developmental critical periods, but not in adulthood.
These learning-induced structural ...
