I do vision neuroscience research, focusing on IT cortex.
Welcome to BaoLab posters at #SFN2025, covering object color knowledge, how word learning shapes macaque IT, the internal functional structure of face areas, and how IT represents movies!

Let's recap:

Everything* is everywhere**

* Except language, motor, memory, facial recognition, spatial perception, ...

** Except white matter, human brains, or anything else that is not a mouse brain
How do you deal with the confound of white matter damage when interpreting natural experiments?

A happy recording day, listening to spiking activities from two visual areas with distinct preferences (body and face).

🔵 Proud to share our new preprint 🔵

We compared humans and deep neural networks on sound localization 👂📍

Humans robustly localized OOD sounds even without primary interaural cues (ITD & ILD)

Models localized well only in-training distribution sounds, failing on OOD regime

What shapes the topography of high-level visual cortex?

Excited to share a new pre-print addressing this question with connectivity-constrained interactive topographic networks, titled "Retinotopic scaffolding of high-level vision", w/ Marlene Behrmann & David Plaut.

Great tool!
Precon_all is finally citeable! I’m relieved, pleased, thrilled and all other superlatives to present to you our preprint describing the inner workings of the precon_all pipeline for semi-automated non-human cortical surface reconstruction! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... 1/10

Getting back from @vssmtg.bsky.social with unforgettable and fruitful memories - now taking train to Beijing from HongKong, way more relaxing for someone who hates flying like me

Poster 436 this morning for Xieyi’s work on separated and integrated processing of shape and texture in IT cortex!
Just arrived at @vssmtg.bsky.social this year, with newest results from B-Lab. Looking forward to discussion with all friends!

Kilosort4 detects a LOT of neurons, I recorded 15k neurons in one year 🤯 Traditionally, one would curate these detected units to see if they are well isolated single neurons. This is not feasible anymore, so today let's look at three options that are out there to automate this process! 🤖👇

(1/6) Thrilled to share our triple-N dataset (Non-human Primate Neural Responses to Natural Scenes)! It captures thousands of high-level visual neuron responses in macaques to natural scenes using #Neuropixels.
