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…

Check out this preprint and 🧵 on mapping the "zone of uncertainty" using HCP News data and employing gradient-based🌈 and spectral clustering methods. Work led by @RoyHaast and Jason Kai. Comments/suggestions welcome!🧠🔬

Beyond grateful to share two co-first author papers that came out in nature!! With Amit Vinograd, we provide causal evidence for a line attractor in the mammalian brain! And with Mengyu Liu 刘孟宇, we show that line attractors might be a common mechanism for emotions beyond anger!

I'm super excited to share this paper just preprinted by my group! We used a ton of post-mortem datasets (bulk RNAseq, snRNAseq, FISH, LCMseq) from PsychEncode cohorts to try to understand what's happening to GABAergic interneuron subtypes in human schizophrenia.

Congrats to @SMestern, Ph.D. student at Western University, for winning the MapMySpikes challenge! His tool, PatchOTDA, excelled in mapping electrophysiological data to molecular properties. 🧠🏆 More on his tool and the MapMySpikes challenge: alleninstitute.org/news/canadian-…

Excited to share my latest work with @[email protected] and Andrew Pruszynski. In this work, we ask whether motor sequence learning is motoric at all! Check out the 🧵version of the abstract: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 1/n

🚨 Exciting news! Wataru Inoue & tim bussey have received CIHR funding to explore the role of the prefrontal cortex in behavioral selection under stress. This research could unlock new insights into how stress impacts decision-making! 🧠💡#Neuroscience #Stress

Last week, I may have DEI’d too close to the sun and attracted anti-NIH folks to my profile who then claimed that my research is useless and a waste of time and money. I beg to differ! Allow me to explain in lay terms how my research in mice is relevant to human health: 🧵

The Hypothalamus, a phylogenetically ancient brain region where action potentials and hormones interface to produce hybrid signalling cascades; ultimately enabling our responses to stress. Check Hiro's paper. Amazing work led by Wataru Inoue. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
