The material offers a concise look at how early nervous system organization may influence behavioral coordination, with implications for understanding the evolution of perception and orientation. For mental health practitioners and social service professionals, it highlights how complex sensory integration can emerge in simple organisms, informing theories about how early neural architectures support adaptive responses to the environment.

Hello! A brief #introduction - I’m an Asst Prof at Boston Children’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School. I study organizational principles of #neuralNetworks. We study #neuralCircuits underlying #motorControl, #sensoryIntegration, and #decisionMaking across species. We also develop methods for synapse-resolution #connectomics. Looking forward to learning more!
