Spread the word: We’re hiring a Director of Operations to lead scientific support at the FMI. This senior role enables cutting-edge research by partnering with scientists, overseeing technology platforms, ensuring safety & compliance, and representing the FMI externally: www.fmi.ch/education-ca...
Two brain circuits.
Same learning problem.
Shared learning outcomes.
Different dynamical implementations.
Our work shows that learning is not a single canonical solution but can emerge through distinct population dynamics shaped by circuit architecture.
Excited to share our latest preprint! 🧵1/12
Excited to announce big steps for electrical imaging in the brain!
In 4 preprints, we and collaborators present 2 new GFP-based voltage sensors: ASAP6c for high-throughput spike recordings, and ASAP7y for subthreshold 1P and 2P imaging
