🧠 Brain Fact #5
Artificial neural networks used in modern AI were originally inspired by how biological neurons connect and process information. Today, neuroscience and AI research continue to influence each other.

🐁 How mice see
Using #DigitalTwins, a research team including Bernstein members @sinzlab.bsky.social, @aecker.bsky.social & Konstantin Willeke has discovered new nerve cells in the mouse visual cortex.

If you're interested in computational approaches, the Savin lab at NYU (among others) will be offering projects using statistical methods & reinforcement learning, and connecting theory and big data. #compneuro
🧠 Brain Fact #4
Even a short period of sleep (like a power nap!) helps the brain reorganize itself and clear space for new ideas — improving its ability to absorb new information and increasing the chance of creative insights 💤
#BrainAwarenessWeek #BernsteinNetwork #CompNeuro
Curious about how brain and body communicate, or how circuit states are regulated over seconds to hours? Read our paper about neuropeptide systems and how they contribute to neural architecture and function

🧠 Brain Fact #3
The brain is remarkably resilient: when some neurons are lost, other neighbouring neurons can reorganize and take over their role to maintain function 🧩
#BrainAwarenessWeek #BernsteinNetwork #CompNeuro
Real expertise. Real students. Real impact. Volunteer to create Computational Neuroscience course material on time series analysis and signal processing.
We are building out a new curriculum day for our #ComputationalNeuroscience course focused on time series analysis and #SignalProcessing. We're looking for 5-10 volunteer contributors w #CompNeuro & #DSP experience.
This is a #volunteer position. Learn more & apply: neuromatch.io/volunteer/
🪰 A collaboration including Bernstein member Frederic Römschied (European Neuroscience Institute Göttingen has shown that fruit flies can adapt their social behavior and learn from these experiences.

🧠 Brain Fact #2
Many neuroscience theories suggest the brain constantly predicts incoming sensory information and updates its predictions if they turn out wrong. Computational models help understand how these predictions arise in neural circuits 🔮

A stylized graphic of a lightbulb with a brain inside. Next to it, the following text: "Your brain runs on ~20 watts — less energy than many household light bulbs!".
🧠 Brain Fact #1
Did you know? The human brain uses only about 20 watts of power — while performing computations that still challenge today’s supercomputers 💡
For #BrainAwarenessWeek, we're sharing insights from #CompNeuro research across the #BernsteinNetwork. What are your favorite brain facts?
