New preprint by Rishi Maran Eli Muller "Analyzing the Brain's Dynamic Response to Targeted Stimulation using Generative Modeling" A review/perspective on why new mechanisms may be found by modeling brain stimulation dynamics 🧠⚡️ arxiv.org/abs/2407.19737 Quick summary 👇

So excited for this work to be finally out. Thanks to all the co-authors for putting up with me and letting me talk about tennis 🎾!

I am absolutely stoked to share our new study on multiscale neural dynamics across species and behaviour + network simulations exploring their benefits! The best lab going around! Captained by THE Mac Shine 🙌

Back when I started my research group, I wanted to build Michael Breakspear-esque computational models of the brain, but I knew I needed some help. In stepped a brilliant young physicist Eli Muller. We were off to the races, but I had some extra funding - what to do?

We are hiring! Aurina Arnatkevičiūtė and I are jointly looking for a talented Postdoc in Systems and Comp Neuro at Monash (AUS). If you like neuroimaging 🧠, comp models 💻, genetics 🧬, brain disorders 🤕, and/or evolution 🐵🐭, this could be the job for you!! careers.pageuppeople.com/513/cw/en/job/…

Applications for this (well-paid) postdoctoral position in our group in Sydney, Australia close in a few days. Anyone interested in complex systems and/or neural dynamics 👀👇

New preprint! Why are long-range connectomic interactions in the cortex dominant in shaping dynamics in some experiments but apparently negligible in others? We (w/ Rishi M, Eli Muller) address this by studying a new hybrid model of cortical dynamics. arxiv.org/abs/2506.19800
