💬 We’d love to hear from you!
How useful would this be in your workflow if we provide it as an open-source tool? Anything else in the wishlist?
Comment here, send a DM, or drop me an email, and please share this within your network! 🙏

✨ Planned features include:
- A user-friendly Python interface to automate processing of Bonsai outputs for seamless integration with analysis tools (e.g. movement, pose-tracking, etc.)
- Alignment tools for synchronising pose-tracking, Bonsai, and Neuropixels data using common xarray structures

Do you use Bonsai and Harp for behaviour acquisition? How easy has it been to interface the outputs with your analysis pipeline?
We’re building a high-level Python interface to streamline Bonsai/Harp integration and align data streams. Nearly there, we’d love your input!

We’re having lots of fun designing tasks to study neural circuits of spatial orientation in mice, and we’re looking for PhD candidates to join the adventure!

Email me to learn more or apply for a PhD with us: www.keshavarzilab.com

🗓️ Deadline for expressions of interest: 30 October.

Only 10 days left to apply for the postdoc position in our lab 👇

Very excited to be part of this! Come join our session tomorrow afternoon if you're at #NeuroFrance2025!

We’re hiring a postdoc with slice patch-clamp expertise to study head direction circuits and plasticity during spatial learning. Ideal for a neurophysiologist excited to combine ex vivo and in vivo approaches. Come join us in beautiful Cambridge! 🐭🧭🧠
📝 Apply by 9 June: www.jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/51282/

This has been a fantastic collaboration. Check out the features and send feedback! We can't wait to contribute further to movement development.

Only 10 days left to apply for our RA positions! Whether you're interested in ex vivo patch-clamp + optogenetics or programming + in vivo ephys and behaviour, we have a spot for you—especially if you're passionate about neural circuits and spatial cognition. Don't miss out!

Delighted to be here at the Annual Adrian Lecture at PDN in Cambridge - Professor Botond Roska (Switzerland), and the title of his lecture is "Cell types as windows into brain function and treatment”. Hosted by @sepikeshavarzi.bsky.social
