What does it take to successfully run a large, scientific international collaboration? In @NeuroCellPress, we share 20 lessons from the International Brain Laboratory on governance, credit, open science, and more. #Neuroscience #TeamScience #OpenScience authors.elsevier.com/a/1miug3BtfHGn…

New in @NatureNeuro: We developed a flexible model that reveals how animals learn tasks—uncovering stages, sudden insights, and gradual improvements unique to each animal. Learning isn't monotonic, and our model captures that complexity 🐭📊 nature.com/articles/s4159…

Happy to share that our new paper is out in Nature Communications with Zoe Ashwood, @IntlBrainLab, and @jpillowtime! We study how animals switch between internal decision-making states in non-stationary environments using a GLM-HMM framework. nature.com/articles/s4146…

This year’s Brainhack draws inspiration from CON²PHYS: same dataset, same questions, many truths? Expect hacking sessions, mini-presentations, discussions on reproducibility and a welcoming environment for all skill levels. Apply here: pre-cosyne-brainhack.github.io/hackathon2026/…

Pre-COSYNE Brainhack 2026 – Join Us in Lisbon! March 10–11, 2026 • Lisbon, Portugal pre-cosyne-brainhack.github.io/hackathon2026 Kick off COSYNE week with two days of hands-on, team-based hacking around real electrophysiology data, open tools, and reproducible workflows. #cosyne26 #cosyne2026

Deadline extended to 8 November 2025! Follow the steps below to propose a project: internationalbrainlab.org/ibl-core-apply

The deadline to apply to work with the IBL core is nearing: 1st November 2025! Follow these steps to propose a project: internationalbrainlab.com/ibl-core-apply If you have any questions, email info+core@internationalbrainlab.org

We can help with your Neuropixels recordings, multiphoton imaging, data processing, visualisation, management, and more. Applications are due November 1st! internationalbrainlab.com/ibl-core-apply

Want to collaborate with the International Brain Laboratory on your own project? We have funding to work with groups anywhere in the world to do new large-scale projects and we are looking for new partners! Learn more and apply: internationalbrainlab.com/ibl-core-apply

These papers show what collaborative science can achieve: standardized methods, open data, and shared tools driving new insights into the brain. The next discoveries are ahead. Come join us! #Neuroscience #OpenScience #Collaboration
