"In Search of Transcriptomic Correlates of Neuronal Firing-Rate Adaptation across Subtypes, Regions, and Species: A Patch-seq Analysis" doi.org/10.1101/2024.1… A new paper from our team! This work was completed in Wang's lab in collaboration with Yijie Kang and others.

In summary, the dPC framework explains when top-down signals are inhibitory vs. excitatory. It unifies diverse findings and offers testable predictions. We hope this opens new paths for theoretical and experimental work on predictive coding. #Neuroscience #PredictiveCoding

In Paper 2, our dPC model explains omission responses (doi.org/10.1016/j.hear…), mismatch negativity (doi.org/10.1126/scienc…), and oddball effects (doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2…). It predicts nPE neurons for deviance detection—confirmed in data.

We’re excited to share two new preprints proposing a theoretical work on Duet Prediction Coding (dPC) Part1: 🔗 biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Part2: 🔗 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Who could have imagined that a small idea could snowboall over three years into a multi-scale study, spanning from single genes to cross-species comparisons? We hope the methodology here will serve as a paradigm for leveraging genetic data in electrophysiological research.

I just attended a great conference, but can’t help feeling disillusioned when I see certain organizing decisions, originally intended to promote diversity, going off to a strange direction. (1/7)

Excited to share our recent work "Flexible gating between subspaces in a neural network model of internally guided task switching", just out on @NatureComms! 🧵👇

Our work on individual differences in monkeys and RNNs is out on Nat Comms! nature.com/articles/s4146… A huge thanks to @aldo_battista @faffofratello Satoshi Tsujimoto @AldoGenovesio and @StefanoFusi2 for the massive work! A brief recap 👇🧵

Neuroscientists can now record neural activity at an unprecedented scale, and have mapped out connectomes and transcriptomes at single-cell resolution. How do we incorporate them into brain-wide models? Check out our @CosyneMeeting @Cosyne2024 workshop: sites.google.com/view/brainwide…
