Feature-specific inhibitory connectivity augments the accuracy of cortical representations To interpret complex sensory scenes, animals exploit statistical regularities to infer missing features and suppress redundant or ambiguous information. Cortical microcircuits might contribute to this...

I continue to think interneuron circuits are an untapped inspiration in neural network design for context-dependent computation.

Hippocampal representations drift in stable multisensory environments - Nature Tracking of individual place cells in mouse CA1 shows that representational drift is not influenced by changes in environment or behaviour, and is lower for more excitable place cells.

Ooh I just saw this and signed up for the alerts too!

Adult human brains have between 86-100 billion neurons and every single one is unique - like snowflakes! ❄️

This image of the Cartwheel and its companion galaxies is a composite from Webb’s Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) and Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI), which reveals details that are difficult to see in the individual images alone. This galaxy formed as the result of a high-speed collision that occurred about 400 million years ago. The Cartwheel is composed of two rings, a bright inner ring and a colorful outer ring. Both rings expand outward from the center of the collision like shockwaves.

James Webb Telescope unveils Cartwheel Galaxy, located about 500 million light-years away in the Sculptor constellation. New images coming soon. Stay tuned! Inspired to explore cosmos with a telescope? Get your own telescope here 👉 amzn.to/49g9lvS #SpaceInspiration #AmazonAffiliate
