Ayomide completed a degree in Biology and received a College of Natural Sciences Graduates of Distinction award.  Congratulations, Ayomide!  Ayomide will continue in her role as a valuable member of our research team as she prepares her medical school applications.

Sean’s and John’s new paper showing that grid cell co-activity patterns remain stable during overnight sleep and reflect grid field overlap from waking behaviors is now out in Nature Neuroscience! A complementary study from the Mosers’ group was published in the same issue.
