Hey everyone! We will be hosting the talk "Defining life through the use of hyperstructures" (part 2) during tomorrow's ERA townhall meeting (discord.com/events/1086903…) from 1300-1400 GMT! Please feel free to stop by! Catch you there!

Distributed and dynamical communication: a mechanism for flexible cortico-cortical interactions and its functional roles in visual attention nature.com/articles/s4200… #neuroscience

Check out our new paper with Joanna Chang Matt Perich Lee E Miller Juan Álvaro Gallego We show that what you learn & how you learn it can lead to important differences in neural activity structure + these differences play an important role in later adaptation nature.com/articles/s4146…

Hey everyone! Going to ALife 2024 either digitally or in person? We're hosting a number of fun events where you can network with other early career researchers! Including our very own MINICON! Read more about it (and much more) on our new website here: sites.google.com/view/emergingr…

Very much enjoying my time at #disi2024! Great Interdisciplinary convos... plus we got this cool tee shirt designed by Gabriel J Severino.

Reasons to come to this event: 1. It's totally free. 2. You get to start your ALIFE Conference 2025 experience a day early. 3. We have a line-up of really inspiring and experienced speakers giving FREE career advice. 4. A great opportunity to mix and network with folk. 5. It's totally free.

So excited for this!

Going to ALIFE Conference 2025 2024? We are organizing a MINICON the day before ALIFE 2024 on July 21st Copenhagen. Come meet and connect with other early career researchers! Stop by anytime during the event! Sign up and read more about it here: eventbrite.co.uk/e/emerging-res…

Gabriel Severino studies the nontrivial interaction between olfactory sensing and respiration need of creatures in evolutionary adaptation #ALIFE2024 ALIFE Conference 2025

Super honored my paper would be recognized!!

🐝🧠🤖 Curious about how bees think, why human reason might be social, or the challenges in developing AI that understands our world? Last month, I was lucky to learn about these topics and more Diverse Intelligences Summer Institute #DISI in Scotland. A few reflections below: linkedin.com/pulse/explorin…

We are recruiting two postdocs for an interdisciplinary NSF-funded project in collective behavior. Joint project with Seth Frey, now on 🦋🦋🦋(UC Davis), Dalton Conley (Princeton University), Ofer Tchernichovski(The City University of New York) and Nori Jacoby (Cornell University). Please forward this thread to relevant people! 1/n

Checkout our new paper!! Hot off the theoretical press...

We present Panda: a foundation model for nonlinear dynamics pretrained on 20,000 chaotic ODE discovered via evolutionary search. Panda zero-shot forecasts unseen ODE best-in-class, and can forecast PDE despite having never seen them during training (1/8) arxiv.org/abs/2505.13755

📣 New review! Dynamical systems and low-dimensional geometric structures in phase space help rationalize how embryos develop form and function, from large datasets. We focus on morphogenesis, cell differentiation, and their interconnection. Alex Plum sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
