As we continue to celebrate #50yearsofCell, we are thrilled to present a focus issue on Neuroscience out now!! 👉cell.com/cell/current In this issue, we present content reflecting on the progress of the field, highlighting emerging topics, and paving the way toward many more

Earlier this year we got a new lab logo -- it illustrates the core questions we are interested in. Measuring behavior, and linking it to the brain and body with a particular interest in muscles as well muscle spindles. We focus on proprioception, motor control & skill learning.

The 11th Annual Neurosciences Symposium is here! We're exploring the co-evolution of AI and neuroscience—a thriving space of innovation and discovery. #BrainsAndMachines

In this perspective we discuss task-driven & data-driven models as well as how they pave the way towards causal neuroscience. We focus on the vision, sensorimotor control and language processing.

I'm super excited to share some results from the Science PRIMA retinal prosthesis clinical trial, including that it's exceeded its main efficacy endpoint with a mean acuity improvement of 4.6 EDTRS lines. Trial participants are almost completely blind due to macular degeneration.

Science's PRIMA retinal prosthesis clinical trial results in STAT!

📢 New lab preprint 📢 We provide the first description of string pulling by the common marmoset. I think this will prove a valuable paradigm for studying the neural basis of reaching and grasping as well as bimanual coordination with these creatures. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Our deepest thanks to the Swiss Academy of Medical Sciences for awarding Alexander Mathis and me (EPFL) the Robert Bing Prize 2024 alongside Susanne Wegener (University of Zurich ). Us for our joint work bridging machine learning and behavioral neurobiological research into sensorimotor

Check out the call for DeepLabCut workshops around the world!

🚀 We are very excited to continue to build on this work; if you haven’t checked it out, the code keeps getting better and expanding. We thank the The Kavli Foundation for supporting this alongside DeepLabCut 🦄 - a core package in AmadeusGPT 💪 Have a package you want to leverage

Welcome Camille E. Proulx and Emily Schafer, PhD to Neuro-X!

🚀 Introducing PICLe: a framework for in-context named-entity detection (NED) using pseudo-annotated demonstrations. 🎯 No human labeling needed—yet it outperforms few-shot learning with human annotations! #AI #NLProc #LLMs #ICL #NER

Great first study of PhD student Sepideh Mamooler!
