Sharing new preprint from our lab: bioRxiv Neuroscience. Led by Paul LaFosse, we show neurons in the awake🧠can filter out inputs: attenuation-by-suppression. Also: real neurons’ activation function share features w/ #ai systems (eg ChatGPT). #neuroscience Comments welcome! 1/15

We have another open postdoc position! Come join a collaborative community at the Laboratory of Sensorimotor Research, NIH. I welcome informal inquiries.

If you’re interested in a postdoc at the NIH, track me down at SfN. My lab has four posters on Saturday afternoon (row Z: 18/19/25/26), and I’ll chair a session on objects and scenes Wednesday morning, room WC147A.

Come see our poster this afternoon (Saturday) at #SfN23 (Z26): suggesting color and form are processed through separate channels in (high-acuity) foveal V1, likely due to the limits of cone sampling. With Bevil Conway and presented by Felix Bartsch.

#SfN23, Society for Neuroscience (SfN): come check out my poster tomorrow (Sunday) morning if you are curious about the relationship between generative modeling and the brain. Work with @jcbyts and Dan Butts. abstractsonline.com/pp8/#!/10892/p…

This paper is so cool: dangeng.github.io/visual_anagram… It shows several kinds of illusions that I had never seen before (e.g., color inversion illusion). It's exciting to see more and more cases like this, where AI opens up new kinds of art, rather than only imitating old forms.

I'm at #NeurIPS23 and I'll be presenting this work on Tue Dec 12, afternoon session (poster #415). Details here: nips.cc/virtual/2023/p… I love chatting about brains, AI, and anything in between. If you're at #NeurIPS23 and care about #NeuroAI, let’s connect! 🧠🤖

Come join a fantastic lab (with great collaborators :) to combine cutting edge neurophysiology and computation to answer fundamental questions about vision at the NIH. [pls RT]

We are recruiting PhD students for this fall, to work at the interface of visual neurophysiology and machine learning. Are you enthusiastic (and ideally knowledgable :) about both? Send me an email!

Looking forward to #sfn2024! I'll talk on Sat PM and the lab will have posters on Mon PM from Aarron J Phensy @LenaShindy Lara Hagopian & Teagan Bullock. Thanks to dr. christine liu on blue sky for flyer production!!

Excited to release what we’ve been working on at Amaranth Foundation, our latest whitepaper, NeuroAI for AI safety! A detailed, ambitious roadmap for how neuroscience research can help build safer AI systems while accelerating both virtual neuroscience and neurotech. 1/N

Mine was just canceled too (was supposed to be next week). Horrific -- for NIH and especially all the science that depends on it.
