Don't forget to apply to the Cajal course in Computational Neuroscience! Deadline March 28!👇

In a recent Article, Roxana Zeraati, Tatiana Engel and Anna Levina present a Bayesian method for unbiased estimation of timescales from different types of experimental data. nature.com/articles/s4358…

Our Bayesian method for estimation of timescales (w/ Anna Levina and Tatiana Engel) is now out Nature Computational Science, with exciting new additions to our initial preprint. Here is a 🧵

Please join us in the beautiful Norwegian fjords to learn about Computational Neuroscience. deadline for applications: 30 April 2022 compneuronrsn.org Benjamin Dunn Kavli Neuroscience FENS The Kavli Foundation Norwegian Research School in Neuroscience (NRSN)

a bit late but finally finished the COSYNE2022 blogpost. In it: 1. some works I found particularly interesting at the main conference 2. musings on "how to conference" 3. a report about our (best!) workshop on neural timescales with Roxana Zeraati rdgao.com/blog/2022/03/2…

Bernstein conference continues! Since one poster was not enough come by today to poster III-2 at 12h45 This one is all about neuron densities in the cortex and why they are lognormal! 🧠🦠

Postdoc position in Sompolinsky Group: If you are interested in doing exciting postdoc research at Harvard at the forefront of computational neuroscience and the interface between natural and artificial intelligence, send application and 3 letters to [email protected]

Our work on manifold geometric theory underlying fast learning of novel concepts led by Ben Sorcher of the Ganguli Lab is out. pnas.org/doi/pdf/10.107… We apply our theory to object manifold representations in deep neural network (DNN) and in macaque IT cortex.

🎉Applications are open for our #workshop on the theory of neural networks in Les Houches (France) from 20.-24.02.23, organised w/ SueYeon Chung & @marc_mezard. Check out our fantastic set of speakers from neuro & ML and apply until Dec 1st statphysneuro.github.io (and pls retweet!)

We're going to be at #NeurIPS2022 with two papers: (1) one on the application of the mean-field theory in fitting spiking networks (SNNs) to neuronal recordings, and (2) another on a unifying framework for different models of memory storage. 1/3

Today's the last day to apply for the CAJAL Machine Learning in Neuroscience summer school in beautiful Lisbon, Portugal. Please apply! cajal-training.org/on-site/artifi… Co-organizers: Gonzalo de Polavieja Gonzalo de Polavieja & Memming Park Il Memming Park

Math in comp neuro summer camp!! Apply now!!! 10-28/July in lovely Norway (amazing/middle of nowhere). No tuition and room/board/food(good) is covered. Great experience/speakers/students/activities!!!! “fire together, wire together” Do it! compneuronrsn.org

Excited to announce RL at Harvard 2023, a one-day workshop on RL broadly construed. Date: August 29th, see rlandthebrain.com for more. Submit your abstracts now! Hope you enjoy what Paul Masset, @jzavatoneveth, Kenneth Blum, Sam Gershman, and I have put together!

Time for a tweeprint of our latest paper! We found that neuron densities follow a lognormal distribution within and across cerebral cortical areas in several species! 🧠🐒🐁🧍 🧵

We got the cover at Cerebral Cortex! 🤩 The issue: academic.oup.com/cercor/issue/3… The paper: doi.org/10.1093/cercor…

Very excited to announce openings for my first 2 lab members Chalmers University of Technology 1️⃣ PhD in theory of ML bias [chalmers.se/om-chalmers/ar…] 2️⃣ Postdoc in ML theory [chalmers.se/om-chalmers/ar…] Beautiful campus, a liveable city near an archipelago 🛶 Work closely with me to shape the lab! 🌱

Thrilled to share our new preprint on optimal replay protocols for continual learning using stat phys + control theory! Very excited about this direction 🚀

And the 2025 Onsager prize goes to …. Jean-Philippe Bouchaud, Leticia Cugliandolo, and Jorge Kurchan! Their works on out of equilibrium dynamics are so beautiful, influential and important - real gems. Huge congratulations ! aps.org/funding-recogn…
