My small tribute to one of my favourite papers ever

we're crowd-sourcing a searchable repository of tangible benefits stemming from federally-funded research. Come enjoy the great stories; or send in an idea; or volunteer to join the team. publicusaresearchbenefits.com please share and re-share so we get more great stories in there!

🚨 Deadline extended! 🚨 A few more days to apply for this PhD project in my lab - come to Edinburgh and study flexible decision-making with us! Please share if you know someone who might be interested 🙂

We are hiring a PhD student to study the neural mechanisms underlying flexible decision-making and individual variability. Please apply and spread the word!

I am hiring a PhD student in my lab in beautiful Edinburgh to keep investigating the neural mechanisms underlying flexible decision-making and individual variability. Email or DM me with any questions, or let's chat at the CoSyNe Main Meeting next week! Apply here: tinyurl.com/2cxr6nbg

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!

A surprising variability in how rats process sounds, evaluate evidence, and make choices underscores the complexity of the brain’s decision-making process, finds a new study in @nature.com from the labs of PNI's Carlos Brody and @jpillowtime.bsky.social. pni.princeton.edu/news/2025/ne...

We are pleased to be partnering with The UKRI AI CDT in Biomedical Innovation at the School of Informatics (University of Edinburgh). These PhD projects have a strong translational focus and seek to develop & apply AI approaches to biomedical domains ✨. Apply by 20 Jan www.ai4biomed.io/how-to-apply/

Thanks to our recent Wellcome funding- we're hiring a Postdoctoral Researcher to explore the mechanisms underlying synaptic RNA capture and selective local protein synthesis. This position has 5 years of funding. Please reach out if you have any questions! elxw.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candid...

There’s just under 2 weeks to apply for our PhD studentships! Join our dynamic community where we provide an annual stipend of £25K, plus tuition fees (inc. international) 🧠. Apply by 26 January and start your journey with us: sidb.org.uk/phds/ @edinburghmedschool.bsky.social

I think Marr levels are a great framework to study mental disorders:1) what computations are altered? 2) What neural mechanisms (at Systems level) cause these altered computations? 3) What are the underlying cellular/molecular changes? We know a lot about 3), little about 1), almost nothing about 2)
