I don't know why but "science™️" cracked me up =))))

Claude Code for Scientists Abundant code without the sharp edges

Why yes this is very helpful for me as an undergrad. I like the way the methods that Patrick laid, how to aid research using AI and its pros vs cons

I wrote a blog post in memorial of David C. Marr, a neuroscientist of previous century on the topic of Marr's Tri-level Analysis, its revised form and the birth of Mechanistic Interpretability.

Applications for 2026 entry to the Gatsby Bridging Programme (7-week maths summer school) will open on 19 Jan and close on 16 Feb. Designed for students who wish to pursue a postgrad research degree in theoretical neuroscience or foundational machine learning but whose degree programme lacks a strong maths focus. Applications from students in underrepresented groups in STEM strongly encouraged. A small number of bursaries available. Register for the information webinar on 23 Jan.

📢 Applications open on 19 Jan for the 7-week #Mathematics #SummerSchool in London. You will develop the maths skills and intuition necessary to enter the #TheoreticalNeuroscience / #MachineLearning field.

I meant *turned out to not be entirely correct:)

Electronic Computer Project In late 1945, the Institute for Advanced Study embarked on a project that departed from the realm of the purely theoretical. With no laboratory facilities, the Institute was not, at first sight, an ob...

Another fun fact I reckoned to be influential on modern computer system, is that Von Neumann architecture was inspired by the understanding about the brain at that time (although later on it turned out to not be).

One thing I found fascinating (or it could be a marketing strategy), is that in some GG DeepMind's paper, they briefly introduced the elements of neuroscience.
E.g: Nested Learning (2025), Contrastive Predictive Learning (2018), ...

No, it's definitely not, despite in 2004, COSYNE was founded to be separated from NIPS, there's a lot of ongoing research on both ends, making independent and intertwined contributions to other one.

Better artificial intelligence does not mean better models of biology Deep neural networks (DNNs) once showed increasing alignment with primate perception as they improved on vision benchmarks, raising hopes that advances in artificial intelligence (AI) would naturally ...

Published @cp-trendscognsci.bsky.social with @drewlinsley.bsky.social & @tonyfeng.bsky.social: As vision models scale to human/superhuman accuracy, they’re becoming worse models of primate vision—benchmark engineering isn’t neuroscience. @carneyinstitute.bsky.social @browncopsy.bsky.social

Any update or reflection for 2026?

I'm totally agree with this statement!

"If I wanted to bolster the case for a specific theory of creativity, the neuroscience literature might be worth mentioning, but it isn’t something to spend lots of time on otherwise—it’s pretty weak evidence, ..."

Leveraging insights from neuroscience to build adaptive artificial intelligence Nature Neuroscience - Adaptive intelligence envisions AI that, like animals, learns online, generalizes and adapts quickly. This Perspective reviews biological foundations, progress in AI and...

Interested in the latest advances in neuroscience (neural dynamics and internal models) and how they can be leveraged to build smarter, adaptive AI?

This point by @earlkmiller.bsky.social is very much obvious from a mainstream deep learning perspective. Why would neurons specialize?

Hello Dr. Goodman, I'm Huy, an undergrad studying AI/CS in Vietnam. Your computational neuroscience work is fascinating. Could you share more about MSCA fellowship eligibility and potential research areas? Happy to continue via email/DM if appropriate.
