So lovely to have you @vaibhavtripathi.bsky.social 😊

When we think about learning, we think about brains.
Neurons. Animals.
But what if learning began much earlier?
Our paper in PRXLife, led by @maorknak.bsky.social explores whether a unicell relative of animals can use environmental cues to anticipate future stress. 🧵

We are excited to open the re:vision initiative, a community-driven initiative for replicating and generalizing findings in visual neuroscience, based on the LAION-fMRI dataset.
re-vision-initiative.org
Why this initiative and why would you want to participate? 🧵

Have you thought of using unchained pupillometry to infer effort/arousal with _uncontrolled_ visual stimulation? Sounds crazy?
@yuqingc.bsky.social shows that convolutional modeling of pupil responses with gaze-contingent luminance changes finally allows just that!

When you're stressed, what happens to the mental links that let you connect related experiences and draw new conclusions?
In our new @science.org #ScienceAdvances paper, we show that stress disrupts that linking process in the hippocampus🧵
Proud to share new fMRI work by the fabulous Or Yizhar (not on Bsky): on the manifold level(s) of abstraction of visual working memories in visual cortex. With a fantastic team, Fabio Bauer, Inés Pont Sanchis, and @hanzule.bsky.social, supported by @erc.europa.eu

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 :)

Story time friends...
Ring attractor networks rely on fine-tuned symmetric connectivity.
The fly head direction network has ring attractor dynamics but heterogeneous connectivity.
How is this possible? 1/🧵

I’m visiting Frankfurt, Germany, at the Max Planck Society’s Ernst Strüngmann Institute (ESI) as part of the DAAD German Academic Exchange Service Indo-German exchange fellowship, where I’m working with
@rademaker.bsky.social's group to investigate sensory and mnemonic codes during working memory

Now out in Nature Neuroscience: "Fixation duration on natural scenes is explained by memory encoding not processing demand".

Our eyes don't linger because recognition is hard; they linger to remember. Let me take you on a quick tour. 🧵
By combining magnetoencephalography and eye tracking, this study sheds light on why people fixate on some parts of natural scenes longer than others. Rather than visual complexity, fixation durations ...
