An opportunity to work with a great group of people across Harvard, MIT, and UC Berkeley.
Why did consciousness evolve at all? A superb special issue of @royalsocietypublishing.org brings together experts across disciplines to explore the functions of consciousness and why it emerged in some species but not others. @tecumsehfitch.bsky.social royalsocietypublishing.org/rstb/issue/3...

EPFL ELISIR apps now open go.epfl.ch/ELISIR. Fantastic opportunity for young neuroscientists to start an independent lab right after PhD, just like @epfl-brainmind.bsky.social ELISIR group leaders @jamespriestley.bsky.social & @ashleymaynard.bsky.social. www.youtube.com/watch?v=qjPD... 👉 April 1 26
Identifying individual wild animals is key for conservation. The lab of @epfl-brainmind.bsky.social professor Alexander Mathis @trackingskills.bsky.social uses AI and images of Alaskan brown bears to non-invasively identify individuals & their behavior across seasons & years doi.org/10.1016/j.cu...
This is just our second M&M review!
The first one in 2020 was on AI for behavior - and now we discuss advances for jointly modeling behavioral and neural data!! Here is the first www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

You can learn about the work at #sfn2025 on Wednesday afternoon www.abstractsonline.com/pp8/#!/21171...
Great talk by Alessandro Marin Vargas at the #salk motor systems symposium!! www.salk.edu/events/scien...
#SfN2025 @deeplabcut.bsky.social 3 poster on Monday morning. Overall, DeepLabCut 3.0 provides an integrative suite of tools for project management, deep learning for animal pose, and integration with many tools such as #Cebra, DLC2action, kpt-Moseq, etc.

If you’re at SfN, see the poster on DeepLabCut 3 where n Monday 8-12
Swing by to talk to @trackingactions.bsky.social and me this and about the DLC ecosystem!
AI tools like DeepLabCut and SuperAnimal are changing how scientists study movement, helping them understand how brain activity drives behavior.

🧠 The Lipid #Brain Atlas is out now! If you think #lipids are boring and membranes are all the same, prepare to be surprised. Led by @lucafusarbassini.bsky.social with Giovanni D'Angelo's lab, we mapped membrane lipids in the mouse brain at high resolution.

Winter is coming.
The team just picked up the latest data from the Swiss National Parc. Full of goodies - find out more about the first paper from the project: eceo-epfl.github.io/MammAlps/
“Mapping ion channel function” doi.org/10.7554/eLif... isn’t exactly a citation slayer, but it’s still one of my favourites (& my first independent project). Today we push pt 2, where we trace code origin & unite almost all channel models in a common expression. Boom! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

The Neuroscience School for Advanced Studies "Brain Plasticity: Neural Basis of Individuality" led by LIP Director Ulman Lindenberger and Tobias Bonhoeffer @mpiforbi.bsky.social has just ended at San Servolo, Venice! #nsas
I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA

This is one of my favourite things ever. From the awesome @kristorpjensen.bsky.social
Count me in too!
Absolutely, please note this is a dataset and machine learning benchmark article. The behavior study is coming!
We’ll present the first benchmark at @neuripsconf.bsky.social — there is much more to come!
