Masaki Kashiwara has won the 2025 Abel Prize “for his fundamental contributions to algebraic analysis and representation theory.”

In 1956, 26-year-old Edsger Dijkstra invented a classic path-finding algorithm while out with his fiancée at a café in Amsterdam. It all happened in his head: “Without pencil and paper you are almost forced to avoid all avoidable complexities,” he said. quantamagazine.org/computer-scien…

🚨IT'S HAPPENING🚨 a woman who cannot speak now speaks through her brain, in real time, with her own voice. no typing, delay, or sounds made. just neural intent to streaming speech this isn’t prediction. it’s embodiment 1/

I'm always impressed when I read an article about work I was involved in that summarizes better than what I feel capable of : brainpost.co/weekly-brainpo…

New results! Working memory is read out via a theta (3-6 Hz) traveling wave sweeping across cortex. Working memory readout varies with frontal theta rhythms biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #neuroscience

After 7 years, thrilled to finally share our #MICrONS functional connectomics results! We recorded activity from ~75K neurons in visual cortex in a single mouse, then mapped its wiring using electron microscopy. To systematically characterize neuron function, we built the first

Our new paper is out in Science. What is the synaptic plasticity rule in the brain, we asked. It turns out there are multiple, even within individual neurons. Congrats Jake! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

A theme is emerging: attempts to reduce brain functions to a few things (like an ion channel) aren’t working. A similar story exists for anesthesia - knockout all the putative things and anesthesia still works. “Lists of things” is not the way. The alternative? /1

セロトニン神経の活動を説明する上で「強化子（好子）の予測に対するアプローチ」という考え方を示した論文。 予想外の好子には、セトロニンの活動が活発になる一方で、予想外の嫌子にはセロトニンの活動は活発にならない。 いやはや。実に生物的だし、ABAでも重要な視点。 nature.com/articles/s4158…

Out now! Sharing the old tweeprint nature.com/articles/s4159…

Today marks a big milestone for me. I'm launching LawZero - LoiZéro, a nonprofit focusing on a new safe-by-design approach to AI that could both accelerate scientific discovery and provide a safeguard against the dangers of agentic AI.

Our study on the impact of altered serotonin (5-HT) signalling on developing sensory cortex is now live Nature Communications We use longitudinal in vivo imaging of 5-HT & neural activity to show that this neuromodulator is buffered in early life to promote bottom-up instruction.
