Edoardo Boncinelli was my professor during my BA in Philosophy, and his course—an introduction to the brain for philosophers—changed my life forever. Thanks to him I became interested in neuroscience. I cherish his memory as both a great scientist and a remarkable human being.
Edoardo (Dado) Boncinelli passed away. A great scientist, a master and a friend.
Addio Dado.

Everything you always wanted to know about color, but were afraid to ask.

A superb, highly didactic video, now in English!
New video in English! 🎉

What are colours? Do they form a particular geometry? Can we build this geometry from our perceptions? 🖌️🎨

All the answers in 20 minutes!

“Human V4 size predicts crowding distance”.
@jankurzawski.bsky.social, now Assistant Professor at U Maastricht, led a big effort over a few years. We used individual differences in object recognition and the size of brain maps to identify a perceptual bottleneck.

Human V4 size predicts crowding distance - Nature Communications
Across 49 observers, we found large variations in crowding distance and retinotopic map size. These measures covary, conserving a 1.4-mm cortical crowding distance in the human V4 map. This links the ...

Going back to work after maternity leave could have been quite hard.
Luckily, I’ve got the best team of young people, who surprised me with another family picture! ❤️

Created a starter pack of neuroscience in/from Paris.

Let me know if you want to be added (the 'from' can include those not in Paris anymore) or just tap in if you want to know what we're talking about!

Regardless, please re-tweet!
