Attractors are usually not mechanisms - new blog post: open.substack.com/pub/kording/...

Are you at the @cnsorg.bsky.social conference? Do you like networks? Brain-like networks? Pretty and structure rich networks? 🙇‍♂️🧠🕸 Come to my Poster 204 this afternoon (or anytime today)!! The poster is right next to the coffee! ☕️ 😉 #CNS2025 #CNS2025Florence 🇮🇹🍝

Doing this might make you smarter ... (www.vice.com/en/article/d...) News coverage of our study on unsupervised learning in mice by @zhong-lin.bsky.social + @marius10p.bsky.social #neuroscience #AI www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I recently had the great pleasure of interviewing Michael Bruchas about an absolutely banger recent paper from his group that tracked down cells in the brainstem that subtlety and precisely control the output of the locus coeruleus. Check out my interview here. I hope you like it as much as I did!

I'd put these on the NeuroAI vision board: @tyrellturing.bsky.social's Deep learning framework www.nature.com/articles/s41... @tonyzador.bsky.social's Next-gen AI through neuroAI www.nature.com/articles/s41... @adriendoerig.bsky.social's Neuroconnectionist framework www.nature.com/articles/s41...

🧠🌡️ New preprint out! BRAIN TEMPERATURE may be a key factor in understanding and treating Alzheimer’s disease and brain cancer: doi.org/10.31219/osf... 'Temperature matters: Insights into brain thermoregulation and its impact on neural activity and health'

Neural models for detection and classification of brain states and transitions www.nature.com/articles/s42... #neuroscience

rdcu.be/ehyfl Finally we see our work published! w/ Arnau Manasanch, @ldallap.bsky.social and Mavi Sanchez-Vives!

Riemannian Geometry for the classification of brain states with intracortical brain-computer interfaces arxiv.org/abs/2504.05534

Despite species and task differences, timescales of these reward history signals (as well as intrinsic timescales) follow the same pattern of cortical hierarchy across different species. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

1/7 Our paper on individual variability in decision-making is finally out in @nature.com! Inspired by the classic work by Mante and Sussillo, we trained many rats to solve context-dependent decision-making, and we found that different brains use different neural mechanisms to solve the same task!

www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... "What do neural travelling waves tell us about information flow?" A new preprint is out, with Antoine Grimaldi, Fredo Chavane and @martinavinck.bsky.social

I didn't know this one! The first manifoldian (as in a description of neural population covariance patterns) plot I am aware of is by Gilles Laurent's group www.cell.com/neuron/fullt...

Trajectories in state space are shown in Figures 3 & 4 of Stable propagation of synchronous spiking in cortical neural networks (Diesmann et al, Nature, 1999).

Se inaugura el Centro de Neurociencias Cajal (CNC), que englobará al @institutocajal.bsky.social y al CINC bajo el paraguas del @ci2a.bsky.social. El traslado del Instituto Cajal a sus nuevas instalaciones en Alcalá de Henares se hará en los próximos meses www.ciencia.gob.es/Noticias/202...

Agents meet neuroscience. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

It's finally out! Visual experience orthogonalizes visual cortical responses Training in a visual task changes V1 tuning curves in odd ways. This effect is explained by a simple convex transformation. It orthogonalizes the population, making it easier to decode. 10.1016/j.celrep.2025.115235

What's the right way to think about modularity in the brain? This devilish 😈 question is a big part of my research now, and it started with this paper with @solarpunkgabs.bsky.social, finally published after the first preprint in 2021! 🤖🧠🧪 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

**The ultimate systems #neuroscience paper!** Recording every spike, every stimulus, every action during person's first half of life to predict second half? The future of papers and neuro, are we almost there yet? That would great discussion to have online. www.thetransmitter.org/systems-neur...

The human 🧠 has two halves that make our behaviors and thoughts more efficient. How the asymmetry of the brain halves contributes to human cognition, examined @wanb.bsky.social & @sofievalk.bsky.social in their study in Nature Communications: www.cbs.mpg.de/2316389/2024...

Super pumped to say that this paper, which takes us another step closer to a proper foundation model for neural data, will be coming out at #NeurIPS2024. Big thanks to Liam Paninski and @colehurwitz.bsky.social for letting me be a part of this amazing project!

This study shows that spike sequences carry information beyond what rates and latency to first spike do: www.nature.com/articles/s41... My reactions: 1) Cool to see this in humans. 2) Are people still surprised that spike times carry information beyond rates/first-spike latency?!?!?! 🧠📈 🧪

Fun fact: The citation classic review on thalamocortical oscillations by Steriade, McCormick, & Sejnowski may have been finalized in my very office. Barbara Jones, who occupied this space for over 30 years, shared this story with me. Sadly, Barbara is no longer with us to confirm.

This seems reminiscent of the ideas on population coding, with a new algorithmic twist. www.nature.com/articles/350...

Important paper! www.biorxiv.org/content/bior... Im not sure the Discussion fully delineates its radical implications. No more... * Place cells * Grid cells, splitter cells, border cells * Mirror neurons * Reward neurons * Conflict cells (continued)

".. one of the most important warnings a student of the brain must absorb. We are deceived at every level by our introspection." Francis Crick 1979

I'm heading to #SfN24 and will be there for the entire conference. I'll be presenting my work on Saturday, so feel free to stop by if you're interested in bridging local dynamics to a global scale! Looking forward to seeing you all there!
