How can we compare conscious experiences among humans, ants, octopi, AlphaGo or robots? Here's the final version of our paper in #NeuroSci with Xerxes Arsiwalla, @Clement_MF_ @msf_teatronika on how to build the Morphospace of Consciousness @philipcball

Happy to announce that my #ERCStG project ECHOES will be funded. The project will use motor neuron activity to infer CNS signals. Thanks to the
ERC for their support. We will soon be looking for PhDs & postdocs. DM if interested in #motor #neurosci #neurophys #neuralinterfaces

Soon + info. Big thanks to people who I admire & have been lucky to learn from over these past years (especially D Farina, JC Rothwell, SN Baker, C Mehring, L Rocchi,
AD Vecchio, R Hannah, S Muceli, D Barsakcioglu)

We are looking for an indep orig thinker to join us as a postdoc at the Center for Human Sleep Science (director: Matt Walker)
We study the functions of human sleep with focus on aging and emotional well-being. Lab offers:
Funding, great collaborative environment, one of a kind datasets, best weather on earth.
The ideal candid will have exp with #imaging & #Sleep but other excellent #Neurosci background might be considered.
Pls feel free to email me firstlast@berkeley.edu for details/questions

Hello everybody! Not sure that I get how this works, daily life of a scientist. Here are some of my hashtags #devbio #devbiol #science #olfaction #vomeronasalorgan #vno #neuroscience #neurosci #cellbiology #cellbio #developmentalbiology #developmentalneurobiology #gnrh #mousegenetics

This challenge is interesting. It consists of an essay (2000-3000 words) that rewards the best writing with 3,500 $USD

The essay is in the field of AI, from a philosophical, biological, computational, mathematical, neuroscientific, psychological, social or any other perspective, it's up to you.

#Introduction

Hey there! I'm just completing a PhD in #auditory systems #neurosci. Soon I'll start a #postdoc in comparative bio and #neuroethology. I'll get to work with several model species, including pallid bats!

I will one day gain a decorative bat collection to rival the bat labs worldwide!

I am getting back into a long-burning #sciart passion, mostly with painting and sketching neurons. I love competition cooking shows, tabletop roleplaying, and gaming. Excited to meet people on here!

Sleep prevents catastrophic forgetting in spiking neural networks by forming a joint synaptic weight representation (2022) PLoS Comput Biol 18(11): e1010628. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1010628

- prevents catastrophic forgetting during new task training

- does not provide training by itself

- replay protects critical synapses of the old tasks

- receptive fields of decision-making neurons after sleep represent multiple tasks
