Remembering Barbara Finlay, 'maverick' of evolutionary neuroscience
23/10/2026 | 9 mins.Finlay, who died on 12 September, championed the idea that developmental constraints dictate how evolution sculpts brains, a concept she used to model the timing of hundreds of events and align them across mammalian species.What to do when traditional mechanistic approaches no longer work
19/10/2026 | 8 mins.Many complex behaviors have stubbornly resisted mechanistic explanations. Deciphering them will require new approaches—and perhaps a new concept of “understanding.”How new technologies can bring primatologists and systems neuroscientists together
15/10/2026 | 6 mins.The two groups study the same behavioral phenomena yet rarely interact or read each other’s work—a mutual blind spot that weakens both fields. New technologies offer a chance to bring them together.This paper changed my life: A first glimpse into the 'middle' of brain processing
14/10/2026 | 3 mins.Work by Jeffrey Moran and Robert Desimone showed that monkeys could focus their attention on different stimuli in their visual field without shifting their gaze. Their work marked a key milestone in the emergence of cognitive neuroscience.Creating community through grant support
14/10/2026 | 6 mins.Fiona Sanderson, a senior program manager at the Brain Canada Foundation, shares how she got into grant administration and how she helps connect researchers with funding and one another.
