#computationalneuroscience — Public Fediverse posts

Shoutout to Peter Ohue for representing Neuromatch at a CompNeuro Nigeria webinar!

He shared our free, open source learning materials, along with information on our virtual course that runs each July.

🙋If you or your community are curious about #ComputationalNeuroscience, there is likely a Nueromatch Ambassador near you, or one who speaks your language, who would be glad to give a talk or answer questions.

The brain uses flexible, multipurpose neural circuits—specifically in the prefrontal cortex—that can be repurposed to store different types of information, such as sensory inputs or action plans, rather than relying on separate, dedicated neurons for every distinct task.

The ANDA-NI Retreat has begun, marking the third component of this year's Advanced Neural Data Analysis and Neuroinformatics programme. Nicholas A. Del Grosso and I are excited to kick off this closing project week together with a highly international crowd of dedicated participants.

Over the past weeks, participants worked through two online courses covering the mathematical foundations of neural data analysis (ANDA) and data management skills from neuroinformatics (NI). Now comes the part that matters just as much: applying that knowledge to real data, contributed by the participants themselves, and collaborating in small teams to tackle research questions.

Mastering the equations behind a technique is only half the job. The other half is developing an eye for data, learning to read what an analysis is actually telling you, spotting when something doesn't look right, and knowing how to embed and combine analysis methods into workflows that are reproducible and shareable with others. That's the skillset we're aiming to build this week.

Looking forward to an exciting and hands-on week ahead.

Researchers have mapped subtle but widespread differences in the brain’s white matter communication pathways among individuals with bipolar disorder. These structural variations correlate with illness severity, treatment exposure, and specific clinical features like episode frequency and age of onset.

Computational neuroscience is the rigorous, interdisciplinary study of brain function in terms of the information processing properties of the nervous system.

Neurons in the primary visual cortex follow highly specific organizational and functional rules to integrate sensory data, determining which of their thousands of synaptic inputs will be used to process visual information.

Despite their role in highly complex brain networks, individual neurons primarily operate as simple on-off switches governed by basic, one-input-to-one-output interactions.

If you're interested in doing a 2 year Schmidt "AI in science" postdoc fellowship in neuroscience/AI stuff with me starting in July or Oct 2027 take a look at this and get in touch soon. We've had a lot of luck recently getting these fellowships.

“The relevance of a simple mathematical model breaks down when applied to the human brain, she says. “I don’t think these models are bad,” she says. “They become problematic when people get set in a model that’s been made to explain a very nuanced piece of data, and use it to explain the brain.””
