First journal club post: aiming for a weekly update on what I have been reading and annotating (deep dives), what new papers sparked my interest and joined the reading list (new papers on deck) and an attempt to make sense of it all.

Journal Club: Cell-type-specific dendritic integration and canonical cortical circuits
Dendrites are not passive cables dutifully delivering synaptic inputs to the soma, but active computational elements that shape what neurons respond to and when.

This is so awesome!! With all feeds filled with politics and conflict, it's refreshing to be able to focus on science

Wow, Iāve just found a Bluesky channel that lets you see only posts with links to scientific papers and get a feed that focuses on the science discussions around them. This is transformative!

Understanding this kind of schematic pattern learning and transfer will be key, IMO, to moving towards models of what we might call "higher-order cognition" or "reasoning". š§ š š§Ŗ

This can be an argument for why normative modeling (optimization) may fail beyond the sensory areas of the brain. In the case of ANN models, there wonāt be a finite set of loss functions that can lead to learning the whole range of neural dynamics, due to the unboundedness of real-world scenarios.
