#IBB shared some highlights from their visit to @sjo09.bsky.social lab. It was rewarding to see how much interest was sparked by #engrams as well as #ML and #NeuroAI 🧠✨

Shoutout to @mhsarikahya.bsky.social & other JF lab members!

Wrapped up 2 intense weeks at #NeuroAI by @neuromatch.bsky.social! 🚀
Our team explored how RNNs encode spatial memory — and found they implicitly learn a discrete spatial layout.

Thanks to my amazing teammates!

Conferenciating at #CAN2025 today? Come see my poster on social memory!

Learn how the amygdala helps us tell apart friends vs. foes (as reenacted in the photo) and how this ability is shaped by oxytocin signaling and engrams :)

Sadly, today marks three years since russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine. I’m deeply grateful to those who continue to defend and support my homeland. Toronto stands with Ukraine! 💙💛

DeepLabCut has demonstrated high performance on professional skiers, but how does it handle snowboarders who spend more time eating snow than riding? 🤭
Despite a very small training dataset, the output is surprisingly promising! @deeplabcut.bsky.social
