The Flavell lab is proud of the accomplishments of lab member Sreeparna Pradhan, who is a K. Lisa Yang Brain-Body Fellow for 2022-2024. Read more about Dr. Pradhan’s work here, as profiled on the Yang Tan Collective’s website.
🪱As the worm turns: A new pre-print study from the Flavell lab uses calcium imaging to track how neurons in a navigating C. elegans nematode encode its navigation strategies, incorporate sensory information and control locomotion.https://t.co/6ieGmyfJ2B #neuroscience — MIT Picower Institute (@MIT_Picower) August 12, 2024
🚀Our latest Flavell lab @MIT_Picower preprint is live on bioRxiv! Aligning and annotating diverse cell types in complex tissues is a major challenge. We introduce 3 deep neural nets to automate this process in freely-moving C. elegans. 🧵: https://t.co/RT5SAsUaPf — Alicia KY. Lu (@mindvance_) July 24, 2024

Congratulations to our @mitbrainandcog award winners Professor Steve Flavell (Excellence in Graduate Mentorship), Research Scientist David Stoppel (Angus MacDonald Award for Excellence in Undergraduate Teaching) and Laboratory Administrator Rhonda Valenti (Go-to Person)! pic.twitter.com/2gwq27INld — MIT Picower [...]
How do brains produce complex, context-dependent behavior? In a new review, Steven Flavell and Talya Kramer highlight rapid progress in mapping not only connectivity, but also function and activity in C. elegans and drosophila https://t.co/9gFZZpkwys #neuroscience @MITbrainandcog pic.twitter.com/75ea2xNbZT — MIT [...]
As a research scholar, Eric explored how neurons and neural circuits work together to generate behavior with Prof. Steven Flavell at @MIT_Picower. Now, he’s pursuing a PhD in biomedical engineering. pic.twitter.com/sDWHbDFHju — MIT Brain and Cognitive Sciences (@mitbrainandcog) February 13, 2024
