Summer + Barcelona + Modelling behavioral data + Amazing list of faculty Join us!!

New preprint out! 💃 where we show that low-D neural subspaces are not all there is in large-scale neural data. How can we capture other types of computationally relevant structure? With Arthur Pellegrino & Alex Cayco-Gajic. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 1/n

BARCCSYN 2023 is coming up! Registration deadline 15 / 05 / 2023 crm.cat/barccsyn-2023/

Thank you for the invitation! I really enjoyed talking to you guys about rats, brains, RNNs, priors and biases 🙂

What do grid distortions tell us about grid function? Our Neuron Perspective reviews cases of deviations from perfect grid. Treated as a feature, not a bug, we speculate on what they mean. w/ Yahade Figueroa, Liora Las, Dori Derdikman & Nachum Ulanovsky authors.elsevier.com/c/1guwb3BtfH5L…

Pre-print: machine learning for neuroscience We build interpretable biological network reconstructions from electrode recordings with ML and optimal transport. Towards models of mechanisms driving behavior, we focus on single-trial neural activity and trial variability 1/6

Great 9 days! I also learned a lot! 😀

Looking forward to this!

Our Barcelona-based summer school, BAMB! (bambschool.org), just opened applications! Come join us: 16-25th July, to learn how to model behavioral data using RL, Bayesian, latent variable models, RNNs, DDMs & more! #BAMB2024

Members of the #BARCCSYN community & ENS-GNT friends are crossing the Iberian Peninsula by train 🚆 and bus 🚌 to attend CosyneMeeting in a sustainable way! 🌍 #SustainableTravel #cosyne24

Did you miss the last Neural Control of Movement NCM society meeting? You attended, but would like to be reminded about the main discussions? Here is a paper for you: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ej…. Per tradition, written by trainees (I Lacal, A Das, Manuel Molano Mazón, M J Schwaner, J Trach).
