What is the structure of neuroscience? I analyzed thousands of itineraries at the last SfN meeting (anonymized). Here is the resulting t-Sne map of the Topics. High res version and code: 10.6084/m9.figshare.8061401. Huge thanks to Society for Neuroscience (SfN). Paper soon out at Neuron.

Fascinating talk by Pinglei Bao and Doris Tsao providing a radically different way of thinking about IT cortex organization in terms of selectivity being an emergent property of object low-dimensional features combinations. #VSS2019

Two postdoctoral positions are available in my lab. More information can be found here: labs.uab.edu/kwon/images/kw…

1/ Congratulations to Pinglei Bao Pinglei Bao for a remarkable finding: IT cortex contains a coarse map of object space repeated 3 times. The maps comprise the known face & body networks plus two new networks. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Heard a great talk today by [email protected] on Neurodesk. NeuroDesk really solves a lot of problems in managing neuroimaging software and is so elegant! I'm encouraging everyone in human neuroscience to give it a try and convince their IT to install it! neurodesk.org

Monday morning at #SFN2024: What can we learn when monkeys watch The Grand Budapest Hotel? Join Wei Jin to explore fMRI and ephys experiments with humans and macaques, examining how the brain responds during movie watching. Poster board H10.

Monday morning at #SFN2024: Does the macaque IT cortex also contain food-selective areas like in humans? Come hear Baoqi Gong present his fMRI and ephys experiments on food-selective areas in the macaque IT. Poster board H11.

Tuesday afternoon at #SFN2024: How do neurons in category-selective regions respond to preferred and non-preferred categories? Join Yipeng Li as he presents his extensive Neuropixels recordings to uncover the general coding schemes of the IT neurons Poster board H1.

1/10 Very excited to announce that my thesis project is now a preprint! We present the first detailed study of mental imagery in human ventral temporal cortex, bringing together the interests of Doris Tsao and Ueli Rutishauser. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

In a new study published in Neuron, a team of Yale School of Medicine researchers led by @neural_nandy & Monika Jadi showed that visual clutter 👁️ affects the efficiency of information flow in the brain! 🧠 Yale Neuroscience Yale Psychiatry Yale Psychology Read More Here 👇 news.yale.edu/2024/10/22/vis…

#VSS2025 The B-Lab from Peking University will be presenting the following talks and posters at VSS this year. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to attend in person due to visa issues—but my thoughts are with all my friends and colleagues at the conference.

Born too late to explore the earth. Born too early to explore the galaxy. Born just in time to explore the brain.

Science consists of measurement, explanation and prediction. A deep network isn't a theory because it doesn't explain, it merely predicts. x.com/talyarkoni/sta…
