Episode #39 in #TheoreticalNeurosciencePodcast:
On modeling neural population activity with mean-field models – with Tilo Schwalger
theoreticalneuroscience.no/thn39
How can mean‑field models be systematically derived from the underlying microscopic dynamics of individual neurons?
Some more Brain-Machine Interface shenanigans: this time we think we found evidence that an animal's agency in a task modulates hippocampal maps of that task.

Moving beyond short-term trials to naturalistic scenarios: Roxana will explore how we decide in changing environments.

Even if they don't dismiss the evidence of its existence, a big chunk of neuroscientists don't seem to get a key question that representational drift raises.
The whole point is that responses reconfigure *without* loosing representational fidelity.
This means *of necessity* that any geometric/
