Many fungi disperse across the globe through air, but the atmosphere is a harsh environment. Does travelling through the atmosphere impose selective pressure on fungi? Very happy to share our latest article on fungal spore air dispersal! authors.elsevier.com/c/1h-9w6ExPykq…

⭐️Hi all, If you have nothing to do in DC on Sunday PM, I’m presenting a poster. I will talk about how head motion is represented in visual cortex and what are the sources of this signal. Let’s catch up 🍻. Looking forward to meeting you there. #Sfn23

Please apply! There are a lot of theory/computation people at Allen that you can work with! We work on projects at the interface of Machine Learning, Statistical Physics, and Neuroscience using one-of-a-kind datasets and contributing to design theory-driven experiments.

🚨Applications are now open🚨 for the Junior Scientists Workshop on Recent Advances in Theoretical Neuroscience at ICTP (June 2024). Check out the list of invited speakers 👇 (orga with Sebastian Goldt, Alessandro Ingrosso and Francesca Mastrogiuseppe) indico.ictp.it/event/10481/

I am super happy to be giving a talk at this theoretical neuroscience workshop. I am looking forward to it. Please apply! It would be so much fun.

Headed to Lisbon for #Cosyne24! If you're around, check out Victor Buendía's poster tonight (1-021). We're exploring how electron microscopy reconstruction of mouse visual cortex informs mechanistic models of feature selectivity. Your thoughts are welcome!

Luca Trevisan, a beautiful mind - friends, colleagues & students remember the brilliant academic gifted also with great humility and kindness, who sadly passed away yesterday unibocconi.it/en/news/luca-t…

A simple mathematical model perfectly captures the shape and statistics of hippocampal place fields in mouse, rat, and bat, in one, two, and three dimensions. With निश्चल and Yoram Burak. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

🚨Preprint‼️ 1/ Predicting neural activity is notoriously difficult and requires complicated models. Here we develop simple “minimodels” which explain 70% of neural variance in V1! 🐭🐒 #neuroai Carsen Stringer @[email protected] Marius Pachitariu @[email protected] Miguel Núñez 🇲🇽 Paper: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Recording 🔬 :

It's been hard to find the words, but here goes: I have been given the wonderful opportunity to start as an assistant professor CU Anschutz Medical Campus in July 2025. That also means opportunities for postdocs & grad students interested in models of motor circuits (simonsfoundation.org/people/laureli…).

Recruiting postdocs! Please get in touch if you wanna discuss projects on biologically plausible learning through TUM's global postdoctoral fellowship tum.de/en/about-tum/c…

Computational neuroscientists 👉 join us to explore new modeling & analysis methods to gather insights from connectomic data and uncover the mysteries of the nervous system 🧠 🏨 Hotel + meals + registration covered Apply by Dec. 3 @ janelia.news/NCR25 @HHMINews

🚨Thrilled to share our latest work with Alessandro Sanzeni, N. Brunel, and M. Scanziani! In this study, we explored how head movement are encoded in mouse primary visual cortex and identified the main source of this signal reaching V1: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Thread coming soon!

I am excited to share the last work of my postdoc as a Swartz Fellow at NYU on the dynamic routing of large-scale cognitive networks in the neocortex! 🌐🧠 Here's a quick breakdown below : 🧵 preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
