Another step toward a foundation model of the mouse brain: "Neural Encoding and Decoding at Scale (NEDS)" Trained on neural and behavioral data from 70+ mice, NEDS achieves state-of-the-art prediction of behavior (decoding) and neural responses (encoding) on held-out animals.

Thrilled to share our state-of-the-art method for in vivo cell-type classification and brain region localization, NEMO, which is now now a spotlight at #ICLR2025! We use NEMO to characterize the electrophysiological diversity of cell-types across the entire mouse brain. 🐭 🧠

Checkout our poster tomorrow! 3 PM to 5:30 PM, Hall 3 + Hall 2B #550

Neural Encoding and Decoding at Scale (NEDS) is now accepted to #ICML2025 as a spotlight (top 2.6%)! 🧠

POSSM shows that monkey-to-human transfer works 🤯 This could change how we train neuro-foundation models. Multi-species pretraining! POYO x SSM = POSSM 🧠⚡ A big step toward real-time, generalizable brain decoders at scale.
