Carney Institute for Brain Science
@carneyinstitute.bsky.social
Brown University research center promoting brain science discovery.
New faculty member Leenoy Meshulam is an @alleninstitute.org's Next Generation Leader. In this latest review, she and co-author William Bialek detail new possibilities for statistical mechanics in understanding neuronal networks. journals.aps.org/rmp/abstract...

Associate director, @cimoore444.bsky.social, spoke at last week's National Academy of Engineering symposium to talk neuroengineering - a field pioneered at Brown - and how it can be harnessed to do the seemingly impossible. Like cross the blood brain barrier to deliver AD drugs. bit.ly/3DEUX58 🧠

This month a new concentration launches at Brown - computational neuroscience - and Ah-Young Moon was the first to declare. Brown is one of a handful of U.S. schools to offer it to undergrads in a move that's quintessentially Brown: student-led and cross-disciplinary. The scoop: bit.ly/4hqFC65 🧠 💻

High five to Debbie Yee 🙌 for winning one of three Brown University awards for outstanding postdoctoral researchers.
Yee won for community-building - something she's done in spades at Carney, including co-organizing a postdoc retreat this fall. 🏆⭐🍎 Congrats! #BrownBrainScience🧠
