Developmental synaptic pruning in the olivo-cerebellar circuit sculpts predictive processing https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.01.01.630979v1
Excited to share the preprint of my PhD work in Vatsala's lab at NCBS_Bangalore!
Find more about why removing synaptic connections during development is just as important as making new ones!!🧠✂️

#PhDone! 🎓 Congratulations Dr Shivangi Verma! 🎊
@shivangiv10.bsky.social from Prof Vatsala Thirumalai's lab successfully defended her thesis!
🧵👇Check out the thread to learn more about her work on understanding how neuronal networks are sculpted in the cerebellum during development 🧠

Check out @shivangiv10.bsky.social latest insights on how synaptic pruning relates to finessing the sensory-motor mismatch and why it’s important for #behavior.
Loved the experimental design and approach 👏🏽

Big paper from @paigel.bsky.social in our lab:
Sensory feedback is always crucial for proper development, right? Wrong!
Crazier still, the motor system is the slowest part of a developing reflex circuit!
Surprises abound in this bluetorial c’mon along….

Sensation is dispensable for the maturation of the vestibulo-ocular reflex
Vertebrates stabilize gaze using a neural circuit that transforms sensed instability into compensatory counterrotation of the eyes. Sensory feedback tunes this vestibulo-ocular reflex throughout life....
