How does the brain work? Scientists are closer to the answer with the largest wiring diagram and functional map of a mammalian brain to date. 🧵

absolutely love this. if you are an ambitious technologist or scientist looking for important problems to work on, this should be your first port of call! (+ lots of intersection with things we are doing at ARIA)

Amazing to see productized BCIs continuing to mature, and now working well for someone who is locked in! BCIs will improve many, many lives in the years to come.

Today, we are launching the first publicly available AI Scientist, via the FutureHouse Platform. Our AI Scientist agents can perform a wide variety of scientific tasks better than humans. By chaining them together, we've already started to discover new biology really fast. With

Fantastic week at the ARIA Summit. Felt like a nexus of the most ambitious ideas + optimistic builders from both sides of the Atlantic. Probably the most bullish I’ve felt on the UK in a decade

Just back from the ARIA Summit in London and there was a, dare I say, Silicon Valley energy in the air. Bold ambition. Civilization-scale thinking. A bias toward real-world impact over ivory tower abstraction. Optimistic about the future of the UK!

From a personal perspective, the inaugural ARIA summit was super special. But hearing all the vignettes of exciting conversations across different fields and spaces… that’s the real magic. These blogs/reactions capture that well

Piano pedals of the brain? New paper in Science this week teaches us how how emotion echoes across species. A groundbreaking paper by Kauvar, Deisseroth and colleagues hit a powerful chord in the world of neuroscience. Spoiler alert: our emotional responses, whether in mice or

🎉🌱So thrilled to announce nine teams we’re backing in our Synthetic Plants programme at ARIA. I can't wait to work with this exciting group as we lay the foundations for breakthroughs in synthetic biology, with potentially transformative benefits for the UK + world 🌍

our newest opp space on ‘innate immunity’ just dropped!! 🎤 so cool to see all the awesome bio spaces our incredible new pd’s are building. reach out to Brian Wang if working on innate immunity

Big post today: a two-hour interview with Ilan Gur on the metascience experiment that is ARIA Ilan was fantastically open. I had a blast. I can only hope he had half as much fun. Huge thanks to Asimov Press for setting this up!

Is 10 bits/s our speed limit? "It appears likely that most of the neurons in the CNS contribute to sensorimotor processing for feedback control." Bingo. If you take a more encompassing view of 'information' to include sensorimotor, the 'paradox' goes away
