✨E11 Bio is hiring a Chief of Staff / Project Manager! This unique role blends scientific project management with day-to-day operations—and gives you a front-row seat and bird’s-eye view as we advance the field of connectomics toward mammalian brains. jobs.lever.co/convergentrese…

The federal government presented no evidence Ozturk had committed any crime. She was wrongfully, unlawfully, immorally detained for publishing an op-ed, which is a quintessentially American act. Thank god for our independent judiciary. cnn.com/2025/05/09/us/…

Devastating loss for neuroscience and ultimately for AI safety. Hearing that Lichtman's NIH grant to scale up EM connectomics by 10x beyond MICrONS was just canceled. Essential work for scaling EM to whole brains and for training a large workforce to support connectomics.

Wouldn't it be great if we could not only image large connectomic volumes, but also completely reconstruct them? And if a whole mouse brain project didn't cost billions? With the PATHFINDER preprint (biorxiv.org/content/10.110…), we preview a future where it doesn't have to.

🥳 Congrats to my friends & colleagues at E11 Bio for getting this out! I use Volara all the time for tasks such as distributed sampling of point clouds from segmentation volumes and many other operations.

Thank you to everyone who joined us HHMI | Janelia this week to explore the modeling and analysis of connectomes. Your contributions are helping unravel the complexity of neural circuits and push the limits of brain science! 🧠🔬 #Connectomics #Neuroscience #BrainScience

What a fantastic conference! Big thanks to all the organizers.

MIT News featured the origin story of Focused Research Organizations and E11 Bio coming out of Ed Boyden's lab with Adam Marblestone Sam Rodriques Andrew Payne Thomas Kalil news.mit.edu/2025/former-mi…

Excited to share project specifying a research direction I think will be particularly fruitful for theory-driven cognitive science that aims to explain natural behavior! We're calling this direction "Naturalistic Computational Cognitive Science"

This summer we welcome Julia Lyudchik and Jakob Troidl to the team! Julia did her PhD at Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) where she developed methods for brain tissue visualization and reconstruction using light microscopy: LIONESS, CATS and LICONN. Jakob is a PhD

‼️🕚New paper alert with Usha Bhalla: Leveraging the Sequential Nature of Language for Interpretability (openreview.net/pdf?id=hgPf1ki…)! 1/n

Excited to present our paper at #UAI2025 on Thursday 🇧🇷 Can we predict which datasets transfer best when downstream decisions, not just predictions, matter? Can we know this before learning? We introduce OTD³, a new dataset distance for PtO tasks arxiv.org/pdf/2409.06997

Anyone knows adam?

Anyone planning to attend MICCAI in Korea in person this year ? If you do, pls dm me.

E11 welcomes Michelle Wu to our brain mapping and molecular barcoding team! Michelle just finished her BASc in Biomedical Engineering at University of Toronto. Her research experience includes UofT, the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, and a previous year with us at E11. We're

🚨 New paper alert! 💥Segmenting anatomical curvilinear structures is challenging. 🚀The paper introduces a novel Frenet–Serret Framebased decomposition, that transforms 3D curvilinear structures into cylindrical primitives for data-efficient learning! ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/11081…

Looking for PhD positions in the AI+HCI space? Want to work on research around LLM evals, tooling, interfaces and optimization? Contact us! We’re hiring one PhD student for the upcoming year.
