For all the esteemed scholars out there who prefer gaining knowledge the correct way, hereβs a summary of our upcoming opinion piece, delivered to you by Jesus himself.
But seriously, science communication is about to get a lot worse and better at the same time.

Wanna do neuroscience in Paris but can't find interesting lab?
Want to come do a sabbatical but don't know who to collaborate?
Check this webpage aggregating ~all the neuroscience labs (+200) in Paris.

Congratulations!!
The merch would sell itself. You could finance a Max Planck with it
The Gao Gang > Huberman Lab
Next will come selling supplements
You have officially reached the modern prophet phase: it's only podcasts and seminars from now onwards
G'day connection makers. On **April 16th**, we're hosting Georg Northoff telling us about intrinsic timescales. If it sounds interesting, here's the link to register: cam-ac-uk.zoom.us/meeting/regi...
Forgot to properly tag the person who did all the job π’
@irinapochinok.bsky.social
π thank you!
I did that, Irina did all the rest π
Thatβs true for most of us! π
My most significant contribution to the project. Not even kidding
New paper out in PLOS Computational Biology!
We introduce iSTTC, a robust method to estimate intrinsic neural timescales from single-unit recordings.
Congrats to Irina Pochinok for leading the project!

New preprint from the lab on synapse development in the nascent neocortical hierarchy!
Using mice that label MAGUK proteins developed by Seth Grant we find key differences in the laminar maturation of association and sensory motor cortices, including delayed, cortex-wide maturation of L1 synapses.
Iβm very excited to announce that a part of my PhD thesis project is now a preprint! In this paper, we show how spontaneous activity prior to visual experience shapes neural circuits in the retina. (1/11)
Paper out in @brainbehavimm.bsky.social!
Big congrats to Anne who did all the hard work for this one ππ

Postdoc position in Paris: come help develop new generation human brain computer interfaces β‘π§ π»
Interested? Contact me if you have experience with machine learning (e.g. simulation-based inference, RL, generative/diffusion models) or dynamical systems.

Yes, I agree. And I also think that many of the most commonly used ripple detection algorithms are pretty sloppy
That's why the question about detecting ripples is perhaps my favorite one in CON2PHYS. You'd think is a straightforward thing, and yet..
