Incredibly happy that @maxeggl.bsky.social was awarded the prestigious Ramon y Cajal contract, the first step to establish himself as an independent scientist in Spain. Incredibly well deserved! We are so lucky to have you at the @neuroalc.bsky.social… except for your inexplicable dislike for coffee

Tired of manually adjusting brain masks in rodents? Try this super useful new tool, freely available and AI-powered (of course!)
🐭🧠 Attention rodent-MRI researchers! Tired of the tedious process of brain segmentation? Check out our new tool built on Meta AI Segment Anything Model (SAM). Give it a try and share your feedback with us – we’d love to hear about your experience!

I am pleased to announce the release of SAMson, an automated brain extraction tool for rodent MRI.

SAMson consistently outperforms existing methods across multiple datasets. Access the code and start using SAMson for your research: github.com/CanalsLab/SA.... (1/5)
