Alan Dias is a Postdoctoral fellow from @MLankarany's lab @KBI_UHN. His research focuses on identifying biomarkers in #epilepsy and developing computational methods to identify where seizures occur in the brain. #TraineeTuesdays

Meet Alan Diaz (@adiazmontl), a postdoctoral fellow and computer science engineer @KBI_UHN and the first to be featured in our new #TeamUHN series! Read about his role, what he’s passionate about and what drives him to contribute to health research > uhnresearch.ca/news/alan-diaz… @UHN

@RichCompNeuro @cognemo_andreea @neurodidact @KarvelisPovilas Many thanks @RichCompNeuro, @cognemo_andreea, @neurodidact, @KarvelisPovilas .

I had the chance to talk about my work at the @KCNHub. Amazing to see the great potential across @KBI_UHN and @CAMH_KCNI. Thanks #KrembilSquared for the opportunity!

I'm excited to announce our new paper in @CellReports, a truly interdisciplinary project between @DrValiante @Jeremie_Neuro @moradi_homeira and myself. We asked a fundamental question: can lost neural heterogeneity be pathological? A #Tweeprint 🧵(1/7) cell.com/cell-reports/f…

@CAN_ACN ended gloriously. The #Canadian #neuroscience community is rich and welcoming. The @KBI_UHN took part consistently at #poster and #admin levels. See you in #Montreal 2023 @francesskinner @Jeremie_Neuro @RichCompNeuro @DrValiante @karunsinghneuro @MLankarany @giuliobonif
