 Effects of the Environment on Rhythmic Motor Systems\n\nLecture Abstract: 
 A fundamental problem in neuroscience is understanding how the properties 
 of individual neurons and synapses contribute to neuronal circuit dynamics
  and behavior. Computational and experimental studies demonstrate that the
  same physiological output can arise from multiple\, degenerate solutions\
 , and individual animals with similar behavior can have different sets of 
 underlying circuit parameters. We study the resilience of individual anima
 ls to perturbations such as temperature and high potassium concentrations.
  Our present work is designed to understand differential resilience in nat
 ural\, wild - caught animals in response to environmental challenges\, and
  shows long - lasting influences of the animals’ temperature history.\n\nE

 ghted in Nassim\, MIT Press\, 2018 Lessons from the Lobster\, Eve Marder’s
  Work in Neuroscience. Marder was instrumental in demonstrating that neuro
 nal circuits are not “hard-wired” but can be reconfigured by neuromodulato
 ry neurons and substances\, and in developing the dynamic clamp and models
  of intrinsic homeostasis. Marder now studies how similar network performa
 nce can arise from different sets of underlying network parameters\, with 
 its relevance for differential resilience in the population to challenges 
 such as environmental temperature.\n\n \n
