The MICrONS papers are finally out. Very happy to have been part of this. Joint work of so many labs lead by @andreastolias.bsky.social and Xaq Pitkow. Large scale efforts and data resources like these combined with cutting edge AI methods are great avenues to drive neuroscience forward.

Nature Portfolio@natureportfolio.nature.com · last yr.

A package of research papers from the MICrONS (Machine Intelligence from Cortical Networks) consortium in Nature and Nature Methods provides a detailed map of mouse brain cell structure and connections, offering insights into how they relate to activity in the mouse brain. 🧪

The DFG is funding independent research groups in AI (tinyurl.com/36f5m6kd). If you're interested in coming to Göttingen (Germany) by applying for one of these groups, we have an online event to inform you what the process is and how we could support you (tinyurl.com/yfpeambm). Check it out!

Really exciting about this work that just got accepted to ICLR as an oral. We use implicit networks to find stimulus invariance manifolds and then group neurons by aligning them to each other. Very fruitful collaboration lead by @neuralbash.bsky.social and @lucabaroni.bsky.social.
