Stuck in Gare de Lyon, as the TGV that was supposed to leave over an hour ago, is still on the platform. However, the station's restaurant did not disappoint!

Delayed post about… delays paper🙃 We derive & simulate a macro linear model driven by long-range axon ✨delays✨ (so very few params) and show it captures key resting EEG features (incl. alpha & coherence) With R Srinivasan, PL Nunez & the amazing @nunezanalyzed.bsky.social doi.org/10.1016/j.ne...

Investigation into sexual harassment at my school - Russia’s hyper-selective top phys-math lyceum, known for brutal academic rigor - to which I unfortunately had smth to contribute. This isn’t unique, many post-Soviet institutions face the same crap. Please have a look if you can (see thread)

🎉Thank you all for joining #BioHackEU25! A special thanks to our online and overseas participants 🙌 staying up late hacking through different projects with us. 👏It has been a great week!! And we look forward to seeing you next year for #BioHackEU26 in Barcelona, Spain!🥳

✨ We're halfway through #BioHackEU25! This afternoon, all projects will present their 🎯 goals and challenges they’ve encountered and seek expertise from participants. Keyword of this year: #Data, #Research, #FAIR and #Metadata

In this preprint, @chris-pinier.bsky.social shows that open-source LLMs can perform abstract reasoning tasks, that LLMs have representations of pattern type in intermediate layers, and that LLM activations correspond to Fixation Related Potentials from participants' EEG. arxiv.org/abs/2508.10057

Small but dedicated @elixir-nl.bsky.social contingent braving 33°C and sunny weather while climbing the ten towers of the Heptapyrgion, hiking down to the Atatürk Museum and the Roman Forum of Thessaloniki (both closed). Still, a very nice way to spend an afternoon [email protected] All Hands.
