    At the Boston University Journal Club
    meeting this week (2007-9-20) we are going to talk about recent developments in calcium biology and how they impact previous models of calcium signalling. These models have been used to explain sensorimotor timing and how the times of reward delivery are learned.

    Eric Anderson will present his research on the topic.
