#connectomes — Public Fediverse posts

🧠⭕️ New preprint by Hulse et al: How can the #fly’s neural compass show #RingAttractor dynamics despite heterogeneous #connectomic wiring? They combine task-trained #RNNs, theory and fly #connectomes to show that “dynamical clones” can embed hidden symmetries in apparently messy connectivity, preserving stable head-direction #attractors and angular velocity integration.

"Extending our model to include #neuronal activity and #Hebbian plasticity, we find that clustering in the network also emerges naturally. We confirm these predictions in the #connectomes of several animals, suggesting that heavy-tailed and clustered #connectivity may arise from general principles of #network self-organization rather than mechanisms specific to individual species or systems"

#Introduction

I'm a computational neuroscientist interested in identifying, deconstructing, and emulating circuit motifs from primarily Drosophila and rat connectomes. My primary focus is to utilize key aspects of these motifs in new Machine Learning algorithms.

Marcus Kaiser's talk at #ESISyNC2022 is now on YouTube 👉 https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLNNYrc8wVrla_d2y4aF6ol-076Vl5MUXi

How do brain networks alter during #development and #evolution? Marcus Kaiser from ConnectomeLab, University of Nottingham, discusses the organization of connectomes and their connection to brain function.
