Petra van Cronenburg<p>🧵 1/3 As you told me before, my very first workshop with children (9 yrs old) in our heritage centre was perfect.

I study how operant or motor memories are formed and how other forms of learning regulate these processes. As spontaneous behavior is required for operant learning, I also study how <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/spontaneity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>spontaneity</span></a> arises in nervous systems.</p><p>Our lab practices <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/openscience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>openscience</span></a></p><p>Disclaimer: Since I got tenure in 2012, my non-tenured co-authors decide where our manuscripts are submitted.</p>
