📢 Applications are open! Join colleagues HHMI | Janelia to explore analysis and modeling of #connectomes to derive insights and solve biological problems. Learn more + apply by Dec. 3 @ janelia.news/NCR25 @HHMINews Srini Turaga Julijana Gjorgjieva #computationalbiology

An incredible lineup of speakers at our workshop "Data-Driven Discovery: AI and Modeling in Biology"! Join us virtually at the Allen Institute from Sept 23-25, 2024—here are the agenda and live stream: alleninstitute.org/events/data-dr…

What is the relationship between the connectome and the functional properties of the brain? In my new paper we address this relationship in C. elegans using a connectome-constrained whole-brain model to capture how neurons respond to perturbation biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Come join us @cmuneurosci ! We're recruiting a new Assistant Professor in the Neuroscience Institute: apply.interfolio.com/151921

today's V4 neuron, high frequency texture detector up top. Seems like the block image fills in out-of-RF statistics to place pixels somewhere.

We are excited to share our new method, SNOPS (Spiking Network Optimization using Population Statistics), published in Nature Computational Science. It was led by ShenghaoWu, with Chengcheng Huang, Adam Snyder, Matt Smith, and Brent Doiron. nature.com/articles/s4358… (1/n)

today's V4 neuron: "complicated curve detector"

Are you a senior PhD student doing exciting work in the fields of neuroscience and/or cancer? Apply for this brand new symposium we’re organizing at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory! Hoping to have a good turnout from glial and neuroimmunology enthusiasts!

Here it is! A huge milestone in neuroscience – the complete connectome of the fly brain from the FlyWire team (FlyWire). In this special issue, we have 9 research articles. I’ll try to summarize them in a couple threads starting here 🧵

Our work (w/ Jonathan Pillow Max Aragon, @Murthylab) analyzing the whole-brain fly connectome was just published in Nature: nature.com/articles/s4158…. For a summary see our tweet thread on our pre-print. FlyWire

Are you a computational neuroscientist on the job market? Apply to come work with an amazing community Yale Neuroscience! Open search for computational and theoretical neuro candidates, deadline 11/30. Always happy to chat if you have questions about the dept or environment!

Can neuro-inspired ANN architectures be useful for motor control in quadruped robots? We translate neural circuits in the limbs and spinal cord of mammals into an ANN architecture controlling quadruped locomotion. w/ Venkatesh, Lerrel Pinto, @neurograce

📢 #Rastermap paper out now, easily explore and visualize your neural recordings 🐭🐒🐟 and ANNs 🤖 nature.com/articles/s4159…. Updates from preprint include analyses of primate data and IBL task data. Video tutorial: youtu.be/oQHq7yUWn2k #Neuroscience #MachineLearning

today's V4 neuron: sharp edges with green background. not sure what to make of the repeated edges outside the classic RF (top left).

Very happy to share a new paper that will appear in UniReps proceedings (unireps.org/2024). I show how two popular neural network comparison methods - CKA and RSA - can sometimes be equivalent, i.e. produce the exact same value. links below 👇
