Our work on individual differences in monkeys and RNNs is out on Nat Comms! nature.com/articles/s4146… A huge thanks to Aldo Battista Fabio Stefanini Satoshi Tsujimoto aldo genovesio and Stefano Fusi for the massive work! A brief recap 👇🧵

'A First Course In Random Matrix Theory' by J.P Bouchard & Marc Potters (2020) is the best introduction to random matrix theory I've seen: cambridge.org/core/books/fir…

Observing the birth of an abstract representation with disentangled variables in human HPC!! Now published in Nature. Great collaboration with Hristos Courellis Juri Minxha @amamelak Ueli Rutishauser and others

Happy to have been part of this journey as a TA and have spent such memorable moments with all the amazing students.

Dr. James Rankin, a mathematician and neuroscientist, needs your help! James has been suffering from severe chronic illness due to Long COVID since late 2022. My fellow scientists, please help spread the information and send prayers to James. urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https…

Neuroscience + Artificial Intelligence = NeuroAI. In this new scitech front, #AI and #neuroscience experts are melding their fields into a more powerful hybrid. Columbia University’s Nikolaus Kriegeskorte, Ken Miller and Richard Zemel are on the forefront: zuckermaninstitute.columbia.edu/neuroscience-a…

What is the nature of sensory prediction error signals in the neocortex? Our research published in nature reveals that these error signals are amplified responses to unexpected inputs, mediated by a cooperative thalamocortical circuit mechanism! 1/4 nature.com/articles/s4158…
