Decoding intelligence. We are a hub at University of Washington in computational neuroscience research, spanning scales, function and mechanisms of the brain.



What problems are neuroscientists🧠 at the biggest neuro conference in the world spending their careers working to solve? Do you see a person or topic you recognize at #SfN24?👀 #neuroscience

Looking forward to hosting Samuele Virgili (@sam_virgili) for his talk "Perturbative approach to the retina: Probing feature selectivity of retinal ganglion cells during complex stimulation"! 📢Join us on 10/9, 1:30 pm, Health Sci Blg G328, UW Seattle.

University of Washington biochemist David Baker has won the 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his pioneering work designing new proteins that can neutralize viruses, target cancer cells, and more. Read more from @uwmedicine: go.uw.edu/2024NobelPrize #NobelPrize #GoHuskies

BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2024 #NobelPrize in Physics to John J. Hopfield and Geoffrey E. Hinton “for foundational discoveries and inventions that enable machine learning with artificial neural networks.”



Blown away by these last two days at the @AllenInstitute and @UW. Here the researchers are not only doing the next big thing, but also pondering the next 5 steps that will change the world. It's breathtaking. Let me tell you a bit about what saw that got me so excited.
