New paper out in @NatureComms! Combining in vivo cell-attached, extracellular, and whole-cell recordings during behavior with a spiking RNN we show how a diversity of neural response types contributes to network function and task performance. nature.com/articles/s4146…

@neuroamyo Congratulations, Amy! So well-deserved! 🎉🎉🎉

Honored to be part of the inaugural cohort of American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE) Emerging Leaders! aimbe.org/aimbe-selects-… So excited to learn from those shaping the future of medical and biological engineering as part of the program.

@ucsdbiosciences @lovett_barron Congrats @katie_a_martin ! ✨

The Helen Hay Whitney Foundation has selected UC San Diego School of Biological Sciences Postdoctoral Scholar Katie Martin as a recipient of a 2024 biomedical fellowship. Details: go.ucsd.edu/4f7MDZb

Do you want to promote an inclusive and diverse @CosyneMeeting? Join the 2025 Cosyne DEIA Committee! We need students, postdocs, and faculty to help! For questions, contact @lukesjulson or @denisejcai. Please RT! #DEIA" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">cosyne.org/#DEIA

Exciting news! 🎉 @HHMINEWS Gilliam Fellowship applications opened yesterday. If you're a 2nd or 3rd yr PhD student (& U.S. citizen) passionate about science & building an inclusive scientific community, check out my application guide! 🌐🔬 #HHMIGilliam yaelcourtney.com/resources-and-…

We have an opening for a postdoc position. Research questions will be in the field of auditory systems neuroscience, with the broad goal of dissecting the neuronal circuits for sensory processing, perception, and learning. For more info, check brainsoundlab.com

The call for #Cosyne25 workshop proposals is now live! cosyne.org/workshops-call Deadline: October 4th, 2024 Your workshop chairs this year are myself and @g_lajoie_ Please RT! @CosyneMeeting @EngelTatiana @thefrankslab

Not for the first time, all Nobel Prizes in scientific disciplines this year have been awarded to men

@Jared_Boyce We’ve never had a single Black science laureate, ever. Its typically not discussed because its commonplace, a known, a given. As more doors of access are opened to us to reach for the upper echelons of science, I hope this changes one day…

Sharing b/c: 1) If you're part of an underrepresented group & picked up on this - you're not imagining it. 2) It's sad to hear trainees describing familiar challenges. We can & must do better. These interactions tell you a lot about a field's culture. Let's improve it 3/3

Our lab has SEVEN presentations on the last/best day of SfN. Come start your day with us in S106, and spend the afternoon at posters G27-G31. We've got vision, audition(!), learning, memory, sequential decisions, disease models, and lots of neural populations. See you there!

We're coming to the home stretch of #SfN2024 #SfN24 ! As you finalize your schedules for Tuesday and Wednesday, make sure to add two posters from @aolab_neuro:

Hey if you are still around #Sfn24 this afternoon and interested in cell type-specific cortex and striatum concurrent recordings during trial and error learning, come check out our work @YttriLab @SfNtweets #sfn2024

Kanaka Rajan @KanakaRajanPhD sat down with @OliviaGieger to discuss how art can help explain complex ideas without diluting the science. thetransmitter.org/craft-and-care…

Stop by our posters at SfN this year! @SfNtweets

@neuroamyo Happy Birthday Amy! Looks like a beautiful trip!

A sign that you've been in the Pacific Northwest for a while: you decide to celebrate your birthday with a week of hiking 😂⛰️

On Thursday August 1 we will be back with one of our most popular days of #BINW24. 🧠 NeuroRacism is all about the ways in which racism within our society can be perpetuated through neuroscience. This year we build on this premise with a panel discussion. ✊🏾✨ 🧵(1/2)

@iaahmed123 Aww, it was great catching up and meeting your beautiful family!

✨So fortunate to have mentored these two exceptionally talented junior researchers! Farewell to Jade Toth who is heading to the Neuroscience PhD program @Columbia and Aaron Zeng who is off to the EECS PhD program @MIT this fall! Can't wait to see what they do next!

We’re making a $600 million gift to the country’s 4 historically Black medical schools - which will help diversify the medical field, address racial health and wealth equity, & save lives. bloombg.org/4fyWbwz
