Congrats to amazing first authors Marili Korympidou Sarah Strauss 🎉 We study how a diverse class of inhibitory neurons contribute to color processing in the retina 📢Key finding: They balance biased color signals biorxiv.org/content/10.110… W/ Anna Vlasits @teulerlab @CellTypist

Retinal waves are known to instruct neural circuit refinement in development. But can they also help train ANNs to better process real-world visual stimuli? YES! Check out the brilliant work of Lilly May biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Now you can watch the discussions/debates on "Is V1 a Cognitive Map?", or "What does V1 do?", on YouTube, youtube.com/watch?v=mJOuWK… while theories and opinions differ, we agree that having falsifiable predictions and having them experimentally tested is the way to go.

This is essentially what we wanted to do in Ran et al. (2020) but couldn’t achieve with the tools available back then, and now, with Jaxley, we are getting much closer.

Greatful to have gotten the opportunity to present in front of such an amazing community. One of the most exciting places to do science in I have ever seen!
