You know English. You don’t know Malayalam. You decide to learn it by listening to podcasts that are purely in Malayalam. What will happen? A thread about language models, meaning, understanding etc…. Plus, you get to learn Malayalam :-) 1/N

My 1st PhD paper w. Neuronal Networks of Memory (Battaglia lab) & Martin Vinck is finally out 🎉! We present a new method for neural data analysis: "SpikeShip: A method for fast, unsupervised discovery of high-dimensional neural spiking patterns" doi.org/10.1371/journa… 1/10

I am happy to share that our paper is now published under open access in the Neural Networks journal. sciencedirect.com/science/articl… I'd like to thank Martin Vinck and Felix Effenberger for their supervision and the reviewers for their insightful feedback.

Do you want to do a phd on #speech and #song and how we use our brain for it #electrophysiology #neuroimaging #motor #rhythm ? Come work with us at the Max Planck Institute for Empirical Aesthetics ! Apply here and contact me for questions. e-recruiting.pro/jobposting/759… Please forward to everyone interested!

If you're interested in the mechanisms of top-down attention - at the level of inter-areal interactions, feedforward/feedback pathways, cortical layers and cell-types - check out our new study finally out in @Neuron cell.com/neuron/fulltex… 1/n

sometimes for electrophysiological signals, mean spectral power in specific frequency bands is computed, often with a kind of normalization. ➡️ demo how to get different ratios of low & high freq power without any oscillatory contribution (by changing 1/f-exp. & spectral knee).

Israel has a consulate in LA. Showing up to a Jewish school in LA with Palestinian flags is *not* about Palestine. It is about harassing Jews in the hopes of driving us out or underground. Palestine is just the excuse.

Come have a look at Marius Schneider (EBBS young investigator award) poster at #123 at 14:00 on Friday where we describe a biophysically realistic model/theory of top-down selective attention that explains many neurophysiological findings in the literature #FENSForum2024

Are you curious about how attention coordinates selective information processing in biophysically realistic, spiking neural networks? Come to my poster P123 this afternoon. #FENS2024 #FENSForum2024

Apply and get ready for three super exciting weeks of comp neuro with Spiros and lots of other great people!

My #AI4Neuro magnum opus: Discovery of spiking network model parameters constrained by neural recordings, using simulation-based inference & generative “AI”. (aka the answer to “how the f did you end up in Tübingen?”) Here's what we have in store: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Very important paper! Check out the supplement where they also discuss more general problems such as confusing oscillatory with sensory-evoked activity or broadband activity, which I think is a very common problem.

I am excited to announce our workshop at the upcoming Bernstein Conference 2024 Bernstein Network Computational Neuroscience How much biological inspiration makes a system "neuromorphic"? What can we learn from Neuroscience breakthroughs and Machine Learning success? link: tinyurl.com/5yzskcpd 1/n

neuroscience paper in 2045: "we recorded 5 million neurons in V1 with Neuropixels 9.0 probes while head-fixed mice watched Gabor flickers..."

I am so happy to see that my interview is out! I had such a blast talking with my friend fannimelles on her podcast. Here I tried explaining a bit the experience of solo travelling as a blind person, as well as making some really bad jokes. Please check it out and enjoy her

🚨Preprint Alert New work with Martin Vinck We elucidate the architectural bias that enables CNNs to predict early visual cortex responses in macaques and humans even without optimization of convolutional kernels. 🧠🤖

Excited for the poster session at #Cosyne tonight! Come check out the two posters I am involved in—one on neural representations and generalization in mice & RL agents trained on the same foraging task, and another on selective attention in spiking networks
