Only 7 days left to apply for our postdoc position! Join us in London and dissect the mechanisms of multisensory integration. Unlimited: coffee + rich tea biscuits. Severely limited: enthusiasm for rich tea biscuits. App: shorturl.at/QFTs5 Lab: coen-lab.com

Excited to share our updated preprint on the neural basis of foraging decisions! This work was co-led by Michael Bukwich (twitterless, now at UCL) and me, with major contributions from co-authors, and the incredible animation is by @KJHerr23. (1/12) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Animals can learn to use all kinds of brain-computer interfaces, from controlling single neurons to large populations of neurons in motor ctx. How do they do this? Thrilled to be finally sharing our research on this question, now up on biorxiv! 🧵

RatInABox🐀📦- which began accidentally from some old code I had lying around - grew to become a massive toolkit for navigational research. It's immensely gratifying to see it finally published and being used in such a variety of ways across the field. elifesciences.org/articles/85274

This paper is now out at @NatureComms! nature.com/articles/s4146… Thanks to helpful reviewer comments, we've added more analyses about the effects of ketamine on MEC since the preprint (1/2)
Lisa Giocomo@lisa_giocomo

New paper on how ketamine impacts the neural circuits that support navigation! Congratulations to Kei Masuda and team (Yanjun Sun and @EmilyAeryJones) for a fantastic study on a very novel topic for the lab! 🧵below! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Cognitive models of behavior are a key part of neuroscience. But discovering them is hard! Neural networks are powerful models. But interpreting them cognitively is hard! We explore automatically learning interpretable models using "Disentangled RNNs" biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

RatInABox just passed 100 stars⭐️on Github which is a perfectly arbitrary milestone at which to announce a new feature, thanks to a contribution by community member @SynapticSage: RiaB is now compatible with the OpenAIs “gym” API. This is big for RL users. Let me explain...🧵

Now out @CurrentBiology. Our work using calcium imaging to study visual processing in the octopus brain! cell.com/current-biolog…
Cris Niell@cris_niell

Very excited to share our new preprint on visual processing in the octopus! Led by Judit Pungor @traceofpink, together with @jsongco_ and @climbing_octo, we measured the functional organization of visual responses in the octopus brain. 🐙👁️ biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 1/n
