Josh Siegle and I are thrilled to be chairing the first workshop on "Bridging the gap between cell types and spike trains"! We see this as the key link between population-level descriptions of dynamics and real mechanistic understanding from cell types. celltypestospikesworkshop.github.io/2026/

The Cowley Group at CSHL has an opening for a bioAI PhD student to start Fall 2026 to work on closed-loop AI models for visual processing (see below). You *must* have a Master's degree in a quant/eng/cs field. www.cshl.edu/phd-program/... Please reach out to me if interested! I'll be at Cosyne.

Psyched to announce our COSYNE workshop on social behaviors (Mar 17th, Cascais). We have a stellar lineup of speakers on topics from animal cooperation and aggression to the social dynamics of LLM agents. Co-organized with Libby Zhang (Allen Institute + UW). cosyne-social-behavior.github.io

So excited to see this work on data-driven selection of overlapping community detection algorithms out! I started working on this as an undergrad many years ago, thanks to @anniegbryant.bsky.social for leading the final push!

From engineering targeted therapies for brain tumors to studying neural resilience in aging, the 2025 Neurosciences Postdoctoral Scholars are exploring bold new questions in neuroscience. Meet the researchers and learn about their innovative projects: neuroscience.stanford.edu/news/meet-20...

Excited to share our NeurIPS spotlight paper that develops cell-type dynamical systems to understand the effects of neural perturbations, and roles of distinct cell classes in a neural circuit! Joint work w/ @dikshagup.bsky.social , Carlos Brody, @jpillowtime.bsky.social . (Details below)
