Super excited to see OmniMouse released 🧠🐭
One model of mouse visual cortex w/ single neuron resolution, queryable for encoding, decoding, forecasting, & behavior-conditioned prediction
>2M neurons 78 mice 328 sessions. Data + models on @hf.co
Congrats to the team 🎉

Wow! What a great perspective! Congrats @ninamiolane.bsky.social !
what an incredible achievement and resource for retina researchers. We use it, we love it — it is a game changer for all of us who love retinal circuits. Kudos.
The dataset that we’re releasing today is among the largest ever released in neuroscience:
• 3.1M segmented neurons
• 78 mice
• 328 sessions
• 150B+ neural tokens
• Naturalistic + parametric visual stimuli
• Behavioral data
Some incredibly exciting news that still feels a bit surreal: I am starting my research group @mpicybernetics.bsky.social!
The best part? We are hiring at all levels!
Curious about the science we plan to tackle, read along :)

Preprint alert! We've done the first ever wireless brain recordings from the high-level visual & motor regions (IT/PMv/PFC) in monkeys engaged in natural behaviors as well as during controlled screen-based tasks. Read below for a lay summary and the link for details! 1/8
Why do our visual systems have “shortcut” connections (V1-V4)? What do they add beyond the classic hierarchical (V1-V2-V3-V4) pathway?
The lab’s latest study takes activity flow modeling to the next level to answer this question, led by @alextzalav.bsky.social

Meet Eyewire II: a new connectomic resource for the mouse retina.
~1 mm² of retina at nanometer resolution, with synapses and circuits of ca. 100,000 neurons, plus visual responses from the ~400 neurons shown in the video!

Is spatial navigation innate 🧠? Using #NeuroPixels we show that the #torus 🍩 underlying the #GridCell map exists already on day 10 in rats — before pups open eyes and ears and before they start upright walking. 🧵1:4
