We are a behavioral neuroscience research group at the Kavli Institute for Systems Neuroscience at the NTNU in Trondheim, Norway. Our goal is to understand how the brain composes natural behavior in freely moving animals. This includes studying how neurons encode elementary postural features and how the brain orchestrates movement sequences and active sampling of the world. We do this using a combination of 3D motion capture and facial tracking combined with large-scale neural recordings in cortex.
