I'm incredibly honoured and excited to share the great news, that I am awarded #Attempto-Preis 2025! 🎉🥳
This recognition is for our recently published paper, “Layer-specific changes in sensory cortex across the life span in mice and humans.” at #Nature Neuroscience. It truly is a career highlight.

New in LayNii v2.9.0: Introducing *LayNii IDA*, a high-performance tool for real-time interaction with ultra–high resolution MRI data. Built for speed, designed for discovery. Still early, but a big step toward the next era of 7T fMRI: higher resolution, larger datasets.

Today in @nature.com , we report a spatial single-cell atlas of human cortical development, revealing surprisingly early specification of human cortical layers and areas.
We built an interactive browser to explore the spatial data: walshlab.org/research/cor...

Thanks, very important insight
As a scientist I have experimented with LLMs, such as ChatGPT, for literature searches. LLMs find real papers but miss some, and worse: invent fake papers with convincing details, for example with real authors who work in that field. Beware of these convincing confabulations!
