Timothy A Currier
Postdoctoral Scholar, Neurobiology
BioTim grew up outside Boston, MA and earned his undergraduate degree at Hamilton College in upstate New York. In his graduate work with Kathy Nagel at NYU, Tim identified neurons in the fly central brain that facilitate airflow-guided orienting behavior. Tim joined the Clandinin Lab in late 2020, where he has been working with Tom to explore how synaptic connectivity, gene expression, and developmental experience work together to define the diverse functional roles of neurons in the fly visual system.

Can Dong
Postdoctoral Scholar, Neurobiology
BioMy research focuses on the cognitive mechanisms underpinning learning and memory and asks the following questions: 1) What are the neural bases for flexible coding of the brain and how do experiences shape these processes? 2) How do cross-brain-region activities influence memory encoding and recall? 3) Develop new techniques/methods to reintroduce the normal activity in the malfunctioned brains.
Durin my postdoc, I will work on spatial and social memory integration in the hippocampus to understand the mechanism of flexible coding in healthy and diseased brains.
