I'm proud to say we are releasing LAION-fMRI, a densely sampled 7T fMRI dataset of natural images, with very broad stimulus sampling for testing countless hypotheses and for deeply exploring brain representations. The dataset is now available at
laion-fmri.hebartlab.com
What does LAION-fMRI offer? 🧵
Join us at the Max Planck Institute in Leipzig as a fully funded 4-year postdoc position (m/f/d) in Cognitive and Computational Neuroscience (Area: Social Cognition). Excellent infrastructure with a leading scientific network. Apply by 13 July: recruitingapp-5218.de.umantis.com/Vacancies/44...?
Only one week left until our PhD application deadline @mpicybernetics.bsky.social. If you’re interested in the intersection of RL, RNNs, and analyses of neural & behavioral data from novel, cross-species foraging experiments, make sure to submit your application by June 15! #NeuroJobs

1. How common is LLM use in scientific publishing, and how does it vary across field, publisher, journal prestige, author demographics etc.? @kylesiler.bsky.social has new paper in PNAS that addresses this question on a massive scale: 7.3 million papers from Elsevier, PLOS, MDPI, and Frontiers.

New preprint as my first post! "Monosynaptic connections link functionally similar regions in human cortex." We use electrical stimulation + fMRI in epilepsy patients to map whole-brain monosynaptic connectivity at 42 cortical sites. doi.org/10.64898/202... 1/n
New course launching in 2027!🎉 🤓
Neuromatch and @connectedminds.bsky.social are developing a Computational Behaviour course. A two-week, fully remote course open to participants worldwide!

"Countries that want durable innovation systems must therefore widen their definition of innovation policy. It does not begin only in elite labs or high-tech firms — it also begins in school systems that can sustain scientific curiosity, rigorous teaching ..." www.nature.com/articles/d41...
Finally, today is the day: Josefine Zerbe will present and release our new multi-echo 7T fMRI dataset LAION-fMRI during #VSS2026, with >30 fMRI session per subject and unprecedented stimulus diversity. Come to Talk Room 1 (Scene perception) today at 5:15. Details will follow in a separate thread!
🚀 PhD position in #NeuroAI & neurodevelopment 🚀
Co-supervised by Sarah Lippé and myself, to investigate visual processing & cognition abnormalities in children with neurodevelopmental disorders in a neuroAI framework.
