📣Excited to share our preprint on excitatory morphological cell types in mouse visual cortex led by Marissa Weis. In this paper, we describe a set of principles that capture the morphological diversity excitatory neurons. A thread: (1/10) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Meet us at the Pint of Science Germany e.V. in #Göttingen for a cold pint of beer and lots of science: May 22 with Zurna Ahmed 🏳️‍🌈, May 23 with Julia Fischer & Lena Ackermann (lenaackermann.bsky.social), May 24 with Richard Vogg & Baptiste Sadoughi. Full program: pintofscience.de/events/goettin…

I am very excited to talk about lemurs and deep learning this evening at the Pint of Science in Göttingen. #pint23 #pint23DE SFB1528; @sfb1528.bsky.social

had a blast the past 3 days at the Pint of Science Germany e.V.! Great talks, great pints, great fun, with a lot of our very own SFB1528; @sfb1528.bsky.social scientists (a huge yei to eg Zurna Ahmed 🏳️‍🌈 and Richard Vogg for presenting) 🐒🍻 #pint23 #pint23DE

These were two days of fascinating presentations and great discussions. Thank you all for participating in our first SFB1528 #TheoryDays! Special thanks to Fred Wolf, Viola Priesemann, Michael Wibral, Florentin Wörgötter, Alexander Ecker, Richard Vogg, ... (1/2)

Do you want to understand how the brain 🧠 dynamically processes visual stimuli? Join #Sensorium2023 at #NeurIPS2023, where your dynamic model competes 🏆 to predict tens of thousands of neurons in early mouse visual system! 🐭 1/7

📢 Deadline extension for our Sensorium competition to Oct. 15! One more month to join us in finding the best predictive model for neural activity in the mouse primary visual cortex! sensorium-competition.net

I am at NEAT in Osnabrück today and will be at the Bernstein Conference in Berlin later this week. Touch base if you’re up for a chat about science or if you’re interested in postdoc opportunities in our lab.

Just accepted at #ICLR2024 : optimization-based clustering to find functional cell types by synthesizing interpretable Most Discriminative Stimuli (MDS) which allow for fast cell type assignment. Curious🧐? 🧵 below. Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2401.05342 / openreview.net/forum?id=9W6Ka…

Kann Künstliche Intelligenz das Verhalten von Affen analysieren? Der Mathematiker und Informatiker Richard Vogg arbeitet daran, KIs genau das beizubringen. Richard Vogg #scienceslam #slam #wissenschaft #forschung #lernen #wisskomm #ArtificialInteligence

Happy that work from my AWS internship got published! Augmenting data by diffusion-model generated synthetic images helps for downstream vision tasks - but did not outperform simpler and cheaper internet-data retrieval - a baseline we suggest. openreview.net/forum?id=xflYd…

🐒 Can you judge a baboon by its looks?🧐 Join our online survey and help us understand perceptions of male Guinea baboons' physical condition🙌 📱Mobile/tablet: kogetho.shinyapps.io/Baboon_Experim… 💻laptop: kogetho.shinyapps.io/Baboon_Experim… Your input is invaluable! Please share & RT! 🙏

Können Lemuren voneinander lernen? Und wenn ja, wie genau funktioniert das? Das wollte eine Gruppe von Verhaltensforscher*innen herausfinden. Dafür haben sie eine Gruppe von Rotstirnmakis auf Madagaskar beobachtet und 160 Stunden Filmmaterial aufgezeichnet. #scienceslam #wisskomm

Doch die Auswertung des Materials dauert gut 480 Stunden. Und Lemuren so lange zuzusehen, ist anstrengend, egal, wie niedlich sie sind. Hier kommt der Mathematiker und Informatiker Richard Vogg ins Spiel.

This excellent workshop is happening again! I participated two years ago and can highly recommend it!

Congratulations to all our student prize winners and runners up! #EFP2024

Take a look at the Data Skeptic podcast: In the latest episode, I talk with host Kyle Polich about deep learning and how we can use it to analyze the behavior of wild primates 🐒🦧 in videos. You can listen to it wherever you find podcasts, or on YouTube: youtube.com/watch?v=jlMvZ2…
