After a visit to Pitt and CMU this week I just wanted to say what an amazing positive collaborative community that thinks in new ways they are building in the comp neuro space. Really amazing.
Marr has computation, algorithm, and mechanism. Tinbergen got evo, devo, goal, and mechanism. But whats the name for "I just fit something and great R2. Many papers do it. It does not fit into Marr nor Tinbergen. How is it called? Nihilism?

To everyone who has been shocked and depressed by the staggering 40% cut to the BRAIN Initiative: we have a voice! Outside Witness Testimony (aka written testimony) for the FY 2025 appropriations cycle is ongoing. Deadline for the House side is Friday May 3 and the Senate side…
How are folks feeling about politics on science twitter? Is this taking our society leadership responsibility seriously and good? Or is it bringing in noise into a dedicated science space and not a good development?

The results of this poll suggest that ECRs face many barriers in trying to change the culture of science. One way to reduce these barriers is to find communities of like-minded individuals, like our #RigorChampions community: ninds.nih.gov/current-resear…

Want $150-800K/yr to support a culture of rigor at your institution? It's never too early to plan to apply and join @NINDS4Rigor in the STIRR initiative! Letter of Intent due Sept 17, 2024. Learn more below! ninds.nih.gov/current-resear…
There is definitely an uncanny valley in support for claims. If you just make the claim breezily, it is accepted prima facie. If you support it with evidence but point out caveats to the evidence, then suddenly the bar for rigor gets much higher in everyone's minds.
Annoying recurring discussion in academia now: will industry beat us to it. Feels like a big refocusing on questions as opposed to engineering is about to happen.
Is verses ai (with friston as chief scientist and @mjdramstead as senior director) in trouble? Some short sellers suggest a lack of rigor nightmarketresearch.com/verses/
Some say those words are used to signal. But who are we kidding, thats too much metacognition. Us nerds use these words. Because they are our words. They mean something to us. And we mostly talk with nerds. And that is fine, too.

🧠 Curious about how neurons are wired in the human cortex? Our @ScienceMagazine study tested over 7,000 connections and revealed key differences from rodents: "Directed and acyclic synaptic connectivity in the human layer 2-3 cortical microcircuit". 🧵👇science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

It was a tremendous privilege to spend some time in DC telling our elected officials about the impact of our BRAIN Initiative project on depression DBS and stressing the critical need for robust research funding.
My university will hire a couple of undergrads to help turn my neuroscience course neuro4ml.github.io into an interactive textbook along the lines of @neuromatch academy compneuro.neuromatch.io. I'd like to try a little more though.
I think the controversial claim here is that "Spatial patterns of electric fields may provide cognitive control and context" I think this means if you scrambled the positions of neurons, thereby modifying/disrupting efields but not Wij, "cognitive control" would break

@KordingLab "statistics" (if method matters), "exploratory data analysis" otherwise. May be accompanied by interpretation, or it may just say "look folks, here are the numbers - you figure out what it means." Both are fine if properly signposted. Is your issue that often they are not?
@KordingLab You got to wonder about Marr's classification. It says nothing about how anything got to be the way it is. How can one understand complexity absent evolution?
A pet peeve: Mainen & Sejnowski 1995 is constantly quoted as saying spike generation is reliable, not a source of variability. It did not show that at all. It showed reliability for very large voltage fluctuations - which might mean driving well above threshold (wasn't clear) 1/
@TonyZador Mainen & Sejnowski showed spiking was reliable as long as input was time-varying *w sufficient peak-to-peak amplitude*. Here 100 on x-axis is ~25mV p2p; reliability is % of spikes occurring in stereotyped "events". As p2p drops from 25 to 12.5 to 6.25mV & below, reliability drops

2019年のブログを書いたときにはmechanistic interpretabilityという言葉はなかった(知らなかっただけ?)と思うが、今から見るともろにその話だ。
はてなブログに投稿しました どうすれば脳を「理解」できるのか:「コンピュータチップの神経科学」から考える【探求メモ:特別版1】 - 重ね描き日記(rmaruy_blogあらため) rmaruy.hatenablog.com/entry/2019/01/… ...「脳を理解すること」をテーマに、少し長めの文章を書きました。
Konrad Kordingさんはずっと考えてきたはずだが、「mechanistic interpretability」と言っているのは聞いたことがないかも。Konradさんが話題にしていたRoss&Bassettでも、もろメカニズムの話なのにこの言葉は出てこないようだ。NeuroとAIの近くて遠い関係が垣間見える。 x.com/rmaruy/status/…
Ross & Bassett (2024) “Causation in neuroscience: keeping mechanism meaningful” 神経科学における「メカニズム」概念の多義性について、科学哲学の蓄積をレビューしつつ、よりよい使用を提案。資金配分や科学コミュニケーションへの影響まで考えていてとても良い。nature.com/articles/s4158…
