Hi, I'm Didi from Venezuela. I'm interested in computational modelling of cognition and neural phenomena, science communication, cats, and tulips. Here, I will share some of my scientific interests, just in case you are curious!

I haven’t been active here, but in this time were opportunities to minorities and marginalized communities to join academia become more scarse, please foward @neuromatch.bsky.social’s academies to someone you think would benefit from participating

research + knowledge + community
🚨 Neuromatch Academy Course Applications are OPEN for 2025!! 🚨

Get your application in early to be a student or teaching assistant for this year’s courses!

Applications are due Sunday, March 23.

So my country has been a complete mess recently and my family too. I have been feeling overwhelmed and now I am rethinking my long-term goal to start graduate training in the US for obvious reasons.

Some good news have come to me recently tho (got a job and some collaboration opportunities, yey).

I had some of the most horrible couple of weeks, emotionally and physically, which was a call of attention to how important it is to connect with friends and family while pursuing my career goals :,)

I’m excited to share the programme of my new series of lectures at the College de France in Paris 12 Nov-17 Dec. I will devote next 2yrs to information flow. As usual, I speak en Français, but all slides (pdf) in English, self-explanatory, video on Youtube. Stay tuned or visit if in Paris. It’s free

Neuro friends, does anyone know about ant study/piece of literature about the connections between hippocampal activity (specially CA1) and consciousness? it’s for a personal project of mine 🧠🟦

Hi, I thought of creating a starter pack with different organizations, groups and institutions related to neuroscience and cognitive science. I included Labs, societies, journals, SciComm portals and others :D

Hello world!

We have created a starter pack to showcase the work of early career researchers in complex systems.

The list is still under development! If you feel like you might fit in this category, let us know in the comments and we will add you :)

Hey professors, I'm helping a lot of students write ✨personal statements✨ for PhD programs...

what is the number one thing you look for in a personal statement?

and what should students steer clear of when writing these?

Last year I taught a graduate seminar, "Computational neuroscience in practice", which invited experimental neuroscientists to think computationally about their data. Reflecting on it, the class helped me better appreciate the inherent challenges of this enterprise.
