Ever wanted to explore the driving forces underlying inhibitory neuronal signalling? We did! So, for my MSc in Joseph Raimondo lab, we developed the all-optical approach ORCHID - all-Optical Reporting of CHloride Ion Driving force. Now out in Nature Communications nature.com/articles/s4146…

New Unit paper shows that memory reactivation generates new, adaptive behaviours that reach beyond direct experience, published in nature Scientific Reports! mrcbndu.ox.ac.uk/publications/m… Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences University of Oxford

Countless of hours with rats in a dark room, thousands of lines of code, and 1 doctorate later, a paper in Cell Reports: “Multi-level encoding of reward, effort and choice across the frontal cortex and basal ganglia during cost-benefit decision-making”. A🧵of the take-aways:

My fellow code monkeys (Jordan Juravsky Ryan Ehrlich) and I are excited to release CodeMonkeys: a system for solving SWE-bench issues specifically designed to leverage test-time compute! CodeMonkeys solves 57.4% of issues on SWE-bench Verified. A core component of our system
