Ode to the original language model, or: Give me literally Anything* instead of Large Language Models (LLMs) *(no predictive coding either!) By Lady Byronadrea LLMartin 1/n

🎉New Paper Alert!🎉 Really excited that this collaboration is finally out! It shows that combining oscillatory dynamics with hierarchical predictive frameworks generates speech perception that is robust to temporal distortions: similarly to human behavior and more so than current ASR models.

Paper out with Atser Damsma, Mitchell de Roo, @kbdoelling.bsky.social & Pilou Bazin! Neural synchronisation 🧠 to the beat 🥁 shifts with tempo. We can model this shift with entrainment & evoked models! Do evoked responses explain more than we thought? 💃 Paper: doi.org/10.1093/cerc...

#ComputationalScience should be open to everyone. At Neuromatch, we run global courses with team activities, TAs, learning pods, and projects…but we also share all the learning materials to everyone. 🤓 #OpenSource #OpenAccess & #Free ➡️ neuromatch.io/open-educati... #OpenScience #OpenEducation

The Pasteur Institute opens its Doctoral Program app. There are 5 projects focused on Hearing and my team is involved two of them! 1) neural oscillatory dynamics in temporal processing of speech 2) Algorithms for speech intelligibility in cochlear implants DM me if interested! www.pasteur.fr/ppu

🔔 Reminder! 🧠🔎 Why do we fall for fake news? Join philosophers & neuroscientists to explore how our brains shape our perception of truth. 📅 March 15, 2 PM | Hall Duclaux | Institut Pasteur 🎟 Free, registration required: www.eventbrite.fr/e/comprendre...

periodically I look around at the state of the internet and the way it is clearly contributing to making the world worse in so many ways, and I think back to dicking around in a computer lab in the early 00s and how full of promise it all felt, and I feel sad it didn't have to be this way

!! Job alert !! Our department is anticipating the opening of an exciting new faculty position in Scientific Machine Learning, with a possible focus on neuroscience, for the 2025-2026 academic year. Info: neuro-team-femto.github.io/2024/04/19/f... Deadline: May 2025. Start date: Sept 2025.

Congratulations to Michelle D. Jones-London, Ph.D., for being awarded the Dolores Shockley Diversity and Inclusion Advancement Award! #ACNP2024 1/2

In a @currentbiology.bsky.social paper earlier this year, led by @laurawesseldijk.bsky.social, we analysed Beethoven’s genome with a polygenic index related to musicality, as a way to communicate limits of genetic predictions at the individual level & the complexity of links between DNA & behaviour:

There should be an open repository - like bioRxiv, but much more casual - where people can document their failed projects that aren't worth the trouble of trying to publish. A massive graveyard of hypotheses with rich indexing, focusing on methodological choices. #neuroskyence #psychscisky #science

@andreaeyleen.bsky.social has been awarded a Consolidator Grant by the European Research Council (ERC) for her proposal 'DYNALANG: Integrating structure and statistics in language processing: an ecological neural dynamics and manifolds approach'. Read more on our website: mpi.nl/news/erc-con...

Very happy for my first BlueSky post to highlight our preprint! It's a great collab w @bnmorillon.bsky.social, @luc-arnal.bsky.social, Mathieu Pham Van Cang, Paul Robert. An RNN to make parallel predictions in polyphonic music shows parallelization is key for neural encoding of musical predictions.
