DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Bassam Atallah\nhosted by Maximilian Jösch\nAbstract:
  Learning to predict when and what will happen next is central to behaving
  adaptively. Make predictions is arguably the core function of the brain a
 s an organ. I will present work using two distinct behavioral tasks in mic
 e carefully designed to dissect neural correlate of prediction. Prediction
  of Time: Dopaminergic activity in the substantia nigra pars compacta pred
 icts and controls temporal judgments. These results hint towards why our p
 erception of time is modulated by hedonic state ('time flies when you are 
 having fun'). Prediction of a Sensory Sequence: Here I will share prelimin
 ary data that suggests even the earliest stages of our primal olfactory sy
 stem\, do not merely encode the world\, they integrate predictions only on
 e synapse from the periphery.
