@StphTphsn1 @taherehtoosi Let me (mis)use @taherehtoosi's tweet on her great study, to also draw attention to our approach to bistable perception based on reinforcement learning and decision-making models (which I think brings a complementary perspective): x.com/neuroprinciple…

Happy to share my first post-doc paper with Peter Dayan just published at @NeuroCellPress "Multistability, Perceptual Value, and Internal Foraging" Paper (free access before Oct 18th): authors.elsevier.com/a/1ffq33BtfH1Y… No access? Email me at neuron2022@shervinsafavi.org 🧵👇

How does our brain excel at complex object recognition, yet get fooled by simple illusory contours? What unifying principle governs all Gestalt laws of perceptual organization? We may have an answer: integration of learned priors through feedback. New paper with Ken Miller! 🧵

📢 We have a new notebook that demoes DPAD (@NatureNeuro 2024) in public neural-behavioral data from start to finish, answers FAQs, & gives best practice tips! Check it out! 🔗 Link is in the repo: github.com/ShanechiLab/DP… 🙌 Thanks @Vahidi_Parsa & @MaryamShanechi! Paper 🧵⬇️

Excited that our paper made the cover of @NatureNeuro! We developed DPAD, an AI framework for dynamical modeling of neural-behavioral data and dissociating behaviorally relevant neural dynamics. 📜nature.com/articles/s4159… 💻github.com/ShanechiLab/DP… 👏@omidsani

Check out our new preprint where we analyzed the dynamics of over ten thousand neurons across 223 brain areas and uncovered a surprising universal principle that describes the organization of intrinsic timescales across the entire mouse brain, including subcortical structures!
Yanliang Shi@YanliangShi

Excited to share our new preprint on the brain-wide organization of intrinsic timescales at single neuron resolution. Work w/ @roxana_zeraati, @IntlBrainLab, @SelfOrgAnna, @EngelTatiana: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Here is a #tweeprint:

New preprint (arxiv.org/abs/2507.06136) w/ @sam_kelemen, @jgonicor, & Sérgio Pequito! We introduce individualized generative linear models of FC, revealing how direct and monosynaptic SC motifs give rise to FC & uncover structural "linchpins" and "fulcrums" of brain dynamics.

There's a PhD opening in Shervin's (@neuroprinciples) new lab at TU Dresden! I think this is one of the best opportunities to work on computational cogsci/neuro. Find out more: docs.google.com/document/d/1qy…

Can we efficiently learn models of collective dynamics in multimodal discrete-continuous time-series, e.g. spike-LFP? We develop a new multimodal subspace identification method to do so & enable causal multimodal decoding! 👏@ParimaAhmadi @omidsani J Neural Eng paper, code,🧵⬇️
