Building detailed neuronal models is hard---#NeuroML helps, but there’s still a steep learning curve. We're investigating how #LLMs can be used to create natural language interfaces to improve accessibility:

Facing an uncertain financial future, many U.S. neuroscience Ph.D. programs are admitting fewer students. The Transmitter spoke with 20 programs about how the recent changes are affecting their admissions processes.

#NeuroML is participating in #GSoC2025 again this year under @incforg.bsky.social . We're looking for people with some experience of #ComputationalNeuroscience to work on developing #standardised biophysically detailed computational models using #NeuroML #PyNN and #OpenSourceBrain. 1/2
Please spread the word, especially to students interested in modelling. We will help them learn the NeuroML ecosystem so they can use its standardised pipeline in their work.

Some neuroscience departments plan to shrink class size by 25 to 40 percent; others may inadvertently take more students than they can afford.
