I'm on the academic job market! I design and analyze probabilistic machine-learning methods---motivated by real-world scientific constraints, and developed in collaboration with scientists in biology, chemistry, and physics. A few highlights of my research areas are:

Motor control friends. I have an optotrak. It used to be $50k. I will never use it. Anyone need one?

Yep me tonight

They're close. Put them over the top!

This is such a well-written piece by Xiao-Jing. Highly recommended for anyone interested in the latest ideas about population coding in the brain, mice vs monkeys, sensory vs prefrontal areas, and distributed processing vs functional specialization. Very accessible to non-experts.

Strange thing that's fun: if you're watching a TV show, during the end credits, stop randomly and pick a name you've never heard of. Google them. So many stories of show business, sad, boring, or incredible. Example from tonight - I'd never heard of Mimi Schir. Led to this, ikar.org/events/mimi-...

The six faculty positions open at UNC Biology also include 2 openings for Teaching Assistant Professors or Teaching Associate Professors. We seek instructors with expertise from any area of biology 1/n unc.peopleadmin.com/postings/307...

The fiscal year is over. So how was the NIH appropriation committed? A long thread with institute by institute results about where the money went.

We will have an NHP position open at @westernu.ca this year. Posting is coming soon. If you're interested about our setup and the opportunities here, feel free to get in touch.

Duke community: DIBS has announced revival of its seed grant programs with a round of Germinators! These are specifically for grad students and postdocs - they are the PIs of the awards - to propose 1-year, interdisciplinary research projects in the brain sciences. RFP: dibs.duke.edu/2025-germina...

Rare hard money gig. Emory and ATL neuroscience community are excellent.

Done - I hope everyone else comments as well. Only 2 days left.

BREAKING: luckily no bones. Gentle camel. But so, so tall.

Any faculty at UCLA out there - have you received any info from the school or NIH about this?

New preprint! How can you remember an image you saw once, even after seeing thousands of them? We find a role for humble mid-level visual cortex in high-capacity, one-shot learning. doi.org/10.1101/2025.09.22.677855 🧵🧪1/

Ed Kravitz passed away yesterday. He was a remarkable scientist and mentor- brilliant, curious, creative, and kind. I am grateful to have learned from him. His legacy will endure through his science and through the many people he inspired. We will miss you, Ed.

Kliph always with the historical perspective when it comes to comedy. Worth reading.

New funding opportunity from the BRAIN Initiative! Applications due Oct 28! grants.nih.gov/grants/guide...

I've only read the abstract and I already know this paper is so very correct 👀

Really good article on the tensions between Neuralink and the academic labs that created the field of BCI - where they are, how they got there, and how the commercialization and the research are diverging. Well done. Especially good if you're new to this and want an intro to the issues & history.

Updated update I downloaded the data from NIH Reporter too soon. The large end of the month update had not occurred. Here are the results as of this morning. NIH grants management staff have been busy making awards. 1/2
