Come check out our posters at @ncmsociety.bsky.social next week, presented by Dan and Sujay!
Happy being a part of a number of other collaborations being presented as well.
Unforunately, I've had to cancel my trip to Japan for @ncmsociety.bsky.social for family reasons, but I'm sure it will be a fantastic meeting! See everyone next year.
Watched the splashdown and recovery twice! Amazing what science and a bit of humanity can do.
Don’t you start!
Always ready for an adventure
Lectures finished! Please enjoy this barred owl!
AI review?
This is like a human version of a large language model - writing a good book by copying other people but not understanding why it’s good.
850 Tomahawk missiles could be $3,060,000,000... That is 3 billion sixty million US dollars.
That is 1224 5 year biomedical research grants. Literally, over 6 millennia of biomedical research.
With the rumblings around CIHR wanting to move to one cycle per year not going away, in consultation with a diverse stakeholder group, we have put together a letter for CIHR leadership. Please consider signing this letter and share/RT: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F... @cannabrain.bsky.social

We gave a worm brain control of a fly body and it walked
What did we learn? Nothing, other than deep reinforcement learning is effective
We call it the digital sphinx

Just don’t
This is peak
I don't have time but I feel like I'm going to watch the whole thing
About time!!
This is fantastic!
I'm not at #COSYNE this year, but here's looking back at COSYNE 8 years ago! With special guests @juangallego.bsky.social, @mattperich.bsky.social, and @kordinglab.bsky.social

Someone accidentally published a real case in there.
“The editor acknowledged that the editorial team is at fault for overlooking the fact that our case was real during the review process,”
So weird.
I just realized I’ve been spending hours each day in an unventilated 3D printing room..
Thanks for writing this! Would be curious to hear your thoughts on our recent paper: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
Had a wonderful time as a keynote and debate speaker at Neuroscience Research Day at Western! Fantastic event.
Congrats!
Yes! The key is what feedback is necessary (if any) to allow that input to be intrinsically rewarding (e.g. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...)
Thrilled to finally share this work! 🧠🔊
Using a new reinforcement-free task we show mice (like humans) extract abstract structure from sound (unsupervised) & dCA1 is causally required by building factorised, orthogonal subspaces of abstract rules.
