Female sperm whales support one another during the birthing journey—behavior that was long considered unique to humans and a few primates. Read now in @science.org: bit.ly/4bIKkeo

Very happy that this paper from our lab is now out in @pnas.org! What happens when the *same* person experiences the *same* information with a *different* interpretation? Nearly the whole 🧠—well, at least nearly all association cortex—changes how it represents that information! tinyurl.com/p8chj2j7

Renormalization in the brain? With @andreasantoro.bsky.social and @jesseba.bsky.social we're organizing a workshop at @cosynemeeting.bsky.social (Lisbon, March 16) on how coarse-graining principles from physics can explain neural computation across scales. nplresearch.github.io/neurorenorm2...

🇮🇹 Un articolo di Davide Risso su Wired Italia racconta il nostro lavoro su reti di ingredienti e combinazioni per caratterizzare cucine del mondo: www.wired.it/article/mate... @wired.it @saumitranetsci.bsky.social @andreasantoro.bsky.social

La matematica del sapore, si può indovinare l’origine di una ricetta dalla combinazione dei suoi ingredienti?

Uno studio di migliaia di ricette da tutto il mondo mostra come diverse cucine seguano schemi ricorrenti. E come questi influenzino le nostre preferenze alimentari

Latest work at #EUSIPCO25!🚀 We bring Topological Signal Processing to the brain 🧠 — showing that edge-based approaches outperform classical GSP in task decoding. Great collab with M.Nurisso & @lordgrilo.bsky.social 🙌 Paper 👉 eusipco2025.org/wp-content/u... #Neuroimaging #SignalProcessing #TSP

Next week (on the 15th and 16th), with @yasserroudi.bsky.social and Federico Turkheimer we will organize a workshop on the "The Topology of Human and Synthetic Minds" Please do join us! (Registration is free but required for access/catering!) lordgrilo.github.io/topology-nat...

🚨🚨 New preprint just dropped! In collaboration with @colltoaction.bsky.social, Cliff Joslyn, @fralotito.bsky.social, Audun Myers, Joshua Pickard, Brenda Praggastis, and Przemysław Szufel, we define a new data sharing standard for higher-order networks. arxiv.org/abs/2507.11520

Thrilled to finally share a huge piece of my PhD project! Our paper “The Topological Architecture of Brain Identity” is now out on bioRxiv: biorxiv.org/content/10.1... 🧵 1/n

New pre-print just dropped, with @doctorjosh.bsky.social, @alicepatania.bsky.social, and Pedro Mediano. In it we ask: when an algebraic topologist and an information theorist talk about "higher-order" structure, are they talking about the same thing? A 🧵1/n arxiv.org/abs/2504.10140

The topology of synergy: linking topological and information-theoretic approaches to higher-order interactions in complex systems

The study of irreducible higher-order interactions has become a core topic of study in complex systems. Two of the most well-developed frameworks, topological data analysis and multivariate informatio...
