Writing forces your brain to coordinate memory, reasoning, and meaning-making simultaneously. Every time you write, you rewire toward clearer thinking. Every time you let an LLM do it, you rewire toward consumption.

🎉 @roxana-zeraati.bsky.social has been awarded the @klaus-tschira-stiftung.de Boost Fund! Moving beyond short-term trials to naturalistic scenarios: Roxana will explore how we decide in changing environments. 🔗 www.kyb.tuebingen.mpg.de/zeraati-tsch... #DecisionMaking #ComputationalNeuroscience

Episode #39 in #TheoreticalNeurosciencePodcast: On modeling neural population activity with mean-field models – with Tilo Schwalger theoreticalneuroscience.no/thn39 How can mean‑field models be systematically derived from the underlying microscopic dynamics of individual neurons?

𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 For those in favor or against, it seems like a good one to discuss in the Neuroscience & Philosophy Salon! #neuroskyence doi.org/10.1038/s415...

Cosyne invited me to give a long tutorial (4 hours!) on methods to quantify differences high-d neural recordings across animals, brain regions, deep neural nets, etc. The recording is up on youtube. I hope it inspires more research on this fundamental topic! www.youtube.com/watch?v=n44x...

‪Ever wondered how GABAergic interneurons shape cognition? The IN-CODE consortium's latest NeuroView article introduces a "population approach", shifting the focus from individual interneurons to cooperative networks. Dive into the future of interneuron research here: doi.org/10.1016/j.ne...

The 6x US memory champion – Nelson Dellis – can memorize a deck of cards in 40 seconds and knows the first 10K digits of pi. To figure out how, he let us peak inside his brain. Here is what we learned in our precision brain mapping study www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... youtube.com/shorts/MryMq...

📍🇵🇹 Excited for #cosyne2026! Come see my poster on Saturday if you want to talk drift. My colleagues at @sprekeler.bsky.social's lab also have some great posters coming up: #compneurosky

I tracked every keyword in 22 years of Cosyne abstracts to map how computational neuroscience evolved — from Bayesian brains to neural manifolds to LLMs — and where it's heading next.

RIP redundancy reduction? Beautiful work by Liu & colleagues showing that neural redundancy increases with learning, as predicted by a Bayesian model: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Out now in @plos.org CB: doi.org/10.1371/jour... Neural representations of tasks change over time, even in the absence of changes in task performance. But neurons change tuning at different rates. How does a neuron's stability relate to its interactions with the population? #compneuro #neuroskyence

Kristine's paper "Information theoretic measures of neural and behavioural coupling predict representational drift" is now available on PLOS Comp. Biology. Link: doi.org/10.1371/jour... This work was led by Kristine (former PhD student) while visiting University of Cambridge during her PhD.

I wrote a Comment on neurotheory, and now you can read it! Some thoughts on where neurotheory has and has not taken root within the neuroscience community, how it has shaped those subfields, and where we theorists might look next for fresh adventures. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Let’s talk @storiesofwin.bsky.social. I’m flattered to be among their profiles (coming soon) & I want to elevate the team behind this terrific effort. /1 www.storiesofwin.org
