Sharing this here a bit late, but @vstaros.bsky.social and I wrote a little something about our experience contributing to the @sbi-devs.bsky.social (simulation-based inference) hackathon. @mlcolab.org @mackelab.bsky.social
We were obviously very hungry while writing.
Why study the fruit fly brain? Tech giants spend billions on gigantic neural networks, but there’s a fruit fly with only 130_000 neurons that can do so much more and runs on less power than a quartz watch.
We are organising the First International Conference on Probabilistic Numerics (ProbNum 2025) at EURECOM in southern France in Sep 2025. Topics: AI, ML, Stat, Sim, and Numerics. Reposts very much appreciated!

Quick intro 👋! I help scientists use ML in their research. My background is in structural biology, but I now mostly post about FOSS topics. I've worked on tools for manifolds and autodiff, but these days I mostly focus on tools for Bayesian analysis, e.g. ArviZ. In my free time, I powerlift.
Hello BlueSky! At the ML ⇌ Science Colaboratory, part of the @ml4science.bsky.social cluster @unituebingen.bsky.social , we are working to accelerate scientific discovery with #MachineLearning through workshops, consultations, cooperations, and software. Follow our work here or at mlcolab.org
