Thrilled to see my 1st postdoc work online! 🥳🍻 w/ Rémi Proville Chris Rodgers srdjan ostojic & Y Boubenec Cognition ENS 👇a thread summarizing the results & motivation Tag along if you like context-dependent behavior, multi-region RNNs and communication subspaces 1/18

New result! A theory of Adrian Duszkiewicz's data, where we model distributions of tuning curves. -Random connection brings symmetry 🌈 -SVD revealed the distribution of Fourier coefficients 🥳 -The model is a null-hypothesis usable anywhere in the brain With Adrien Peyrache 🪐😴⚡️ and Adrian Duszkiewicz

Excited to announce that I'm starting my group UCL with Wellcome funding in 2023. We'll investigate audiovisual integration with the latest electrophysiology and optogenetic tools. DM me if you'd like to join as a postdoc, student, or tech. Or say hello at 329.23. #SfN2022

📃 New preprint from Yves Boubenec's group in collaboration with srdjan ostojic! We show that category-specific population activity in A1 enhances task-relevant sounds upon task engagement. More here: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Proud to share this innovative work by our lab, spearheaded by Célian Bimbard! Turns our that a lot of the auditory-evoked responses in V1 can be explained by animals’ movements and internal state. nature.com/articles/s4159…

Honoured and excited to kickstart my lab at IIT (cncs.iit.it) in the fall sponsored by the HT-ECF! Lab website and recruiting at all levels coming soon - DM me if interested in cracking the genetic and functional architecture of cortical circuits

Now published in Neuron! What is the role of cortex in combining auditory and visual information to localize objects in space? Find out here: doi.org/10.1016/j.neur… Work with Timothy SIT, Miles Wells, Matteo Carandini, and Kenneth D Harris

Our lab at UCL (ucl.ac.uk/cortexlab) is looking for a Research Technician in computational and experimental #neuroscience. Ideal for those who wish to gain research experience before considering PhD studies. More info: ucl.ac.uk/cortexlab/posi…. Deadline: 20 June.

Delighted to announce the free online 2023 UCL #Neuropixels course. Day 1 (17 Oct) covers the basics. Day 2 (18 Oct) does a deep dive into 4 hot topics: the 2.0 release, Kilosort 4, chronic recording methods & analysis. For more info and to register: ucl.ac.uk/neuropixels/tr…

The Coen Lab is hiring a post doc at UCL! Help us dissect the neural circuits underlying audiovisual integration with state of the art behaviour, ephys, and optogenetic tools, and free coffee of course ;) Job ad: t.ly/S_WY coen-lab.com

🚨Another pre-print alert!🚨Here we use the electrophysiology data from the Brain Wide Map as well as widefield data to investigate the question “Where in the brain is prior knowledge represented?” Recordings in 267 brain regions from 121 mice (1/8) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

⚡️Announcing️Lightning Pose⚡️ A pose estimation method that learns from both labeled images and a lot of unlabeled videos, via inductive biases like temporal smoothness, posture feasibility, and multi-view consistency. Preprint: tinyurl.com/litpose

Going to SfN this year? Join us for a workshop on how to use our Brainwide Map dataset to test your own hypotheses! For more information and to register, visit internationalbrainlab.org/sfn2023

The time it takes to publish can vary considerably between fields and journals. Fill out this anonymous survey to help us quantify this. Results will be made publicly available. shorturl.at/hpYZ3

UnitMatch tracks neurons across multiple electrophysiological recording sessions. It relies on the spike waveform and allows tracking even when functional properties change such as during memory formation. Enny Matteo Carandini Kenneth D Harris nature.com/articles/s4159…

[1/5] Our paper “Tracking neurons across days with high-density probes” is now out in Nature Methods! rdcu.be/dVhCN UnitMatch is a software for chronic electrophysiology that will automatically track neurons for months!

Only 7 days left to apply for our postdoc position! Join us in London and dissect the mechanisms of multisensory integration. Unlimited: coffee + rich tea biscuits. Severely limited: enthusiasm for rich tea biscuits. App: shorturl.at/QFTs5 Lab: coen-lab.com

The French assembly just voted in a 50€/animal tax for living animals used for scientific or educational purposes, which is doubled for every re-use of the same animal. Promoting ethical practices in experimental research is really great, but… 1/2

How does blood flow relate to brain activity? We discovered that it reflects two neural populations affected oppositely by arousal. Together, they explain neurovascular coupling in all brain regions and brain states! Out in Nature: rdcu.be/fdC2A UCL Brain Sciences
