#cosyne — Public Fediverse posts

So grateful to everyone who stopped by the Neuromatch booth yesterday at #COSYNE2026 for our community meet-up.

Today is the last day of #COSYNE, so if you haven't made it by yet, come find us at the booth! We would love to chat about:

🤓 Neuromatch Academy courses: student & TA applications close TODAY, 15 March! https://neuromatch.io/courses/
💻️ Our new AI Sentience Scholars program & upcoming webinar on 1 April. Register here: https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_z9g1Ut7DQM6N3asbVO97aw#/registration

At #COSYNE2026? #Neuromatch has a booth!

Join us for a meetup on Saturday, 14 March at 12:15 at the booth.

Whether you're an alumnus, a teaching assistant, a content creator, or just curious about getting involved; this one's for you!

#COSYNE #ComputationalNeuroscience #CompNeuro

Computational and Systems Neuroscience #COSYNE2026 is taking place in Lisbon, Portugal, from 12–17 March.

We’re excited to be there connecting with our global community, learning from the latest research, and sharing the work Neuromatch is doing.

If you’re attending, we’d love to meet! Let’s connect and continue building an open, collaborative #CompNeuro ecosystem.

This is work that we presented at last year's #Cosyne workshop on #GNN s https://sites.google.com/bu.edu/gnnworkshop-cosyne2025/home. Better late than never. You can reproduce everything with the associated notebooks. I think it's a good start to learn how to use GNNs to infer something about NNs. https://arxiv.org/abs/2602.13325

📣 Travel awards are available for undergrads, postdocs, and PIs wanting to attend #COSYNE25! A great opportunity for our community!

📍 Computational and Systems Neuroscience (#COSYNE) will be held in Lisbon, Portugal, 12-15 March 2026.

The award can be used to cover flights, food, and relevant travel expenses. They are especially encouraging undergrads and applications from traditionally under-represented and under-served groups.

Deadline is 12 November.

Discovered the COSYNE 2025 workshop program is out! 🧠

Looking forward to fascinating computational neuroscience talks & discussions (March 31-April 1, 2025).

Check out the program: https://www.cosyne.org/workshops-program-2025

See you there! #COSYNE2025 #CompNeuro @CosyneMeeting

@manisha The #Cosyne abstracts are too long and some journals would treat them as "publications" and not allow them to be subsequently published. Moreover, cosyne abstracts are technically peer reviewed and thus live at that ugly "journal" vs "abstract" boundary. A lot of people don't want their cosyne abstracts published. They want to go to these conferences to discuss data that they are not ready to preprint (say to get comments on or to try out new ways of looking at the data).

#Cosyne needs to decide if it is a journal or a conference. 😡​ They ask for 2-page "abstracts", but then review the 2 pages as if they are a full paper. 2/3 reviews we got back included statements of "I don't understand why they didn't do X", where X was (a) Figure 5 of a 10-page paper ("abstract" included figure 1-3) or (b) a 3-year $500k project beyond the actual submission. The one good review was for a project that could be completely described in 2 pages. That's not an abstract.

with J.F. Roget, A. Onicas and F.Sarpong we got accepted to present @ #cosyne, see in Purtugal in February: "A systematic approach to unravel causal interactions in large #neuralsystems and #brain networks with #reservoircomputing", an evolution of https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2023.06.08.544175v1 #neuro

@elduvelle I am on the fence! #SfN is great for the social aspect i.e. end up in a random tiki bar with all your scientific heroes. I’d be tempted to do #cosyne instead - I find myself more challenged there so it feels more valuable. @elduvelle are you going for a poster or symposium?

Are single neurons independent modules of cognition, or are representations mixed like mom's spaghetti?

Join us at our workshop at #cosyne23 on March 13th to find out what our stellar lineup thinks about disentangled representations and single-neuron interpretability!

Co-organized with James Whittington and Jeff Johnston!

If you’re attending #cosyne, come check out Poster II-119 from Hamza Chaudhry, me, Dima Krotov, and @cpehlevan on how modern Hopfield networks with asymmetric Hebbian learning rules can be used to store large sequences of patterns!

@worldwideneuro created a searchable, interactive programme for the citable, virtual and real posters & audio briefs of #COSYNE'23....with awesome recommendations for what to look at! Check out the programme at https://www.world-wide.org/cosyne-23/

How are there no toots about cosyne? #cosyne #cosyne23 #neuroscience

First ever submission to #cosyne - rejected! It’s actually very nice to see the reviews… but what are these scores out of? Is a higher score good or bad?
-never mind: it says 1 to 10

We got rejected from #COSYNE with 7, 6, 3 reviewer scores. I still strongly believe the work was interesting and novel for its community. I don't prefer to keep it for another year, as it stands it's not quite NeurIPS material either. Is bioRxiv+GitHub good option?

Who is going to #Cosyne in Montreal this year? Workshops?

We have also asked the conference hotel to set aside some extra rooms for March 7th as part of the #COSYNE block. So, if you are coming to COSYNE and would like to come one day early for this workshop, you can just go ahead and book your hotel room for the 7th on!!!

This is how I #COSYNE
