@CaltechN
The Tianqiao and Chrissy Chen Institute for Neuroscience at Caltech draws upon Caltech's strengths across a broad range of disciplines.
If you’ll be at MCN, look for @jieyusz!
Heading to @HHMIJanelia this weekend for the MCN! 🧠✈️ I’ll be presenting a poster on Wednesday, repping @CaltechN (seems like I might be the only one!). Hit me up to chat about Manhattan Maze 🗺️, acortical mice 🐭, 10 bits/s 🔢, and all things cognition!
Congratulations to @neuronair on being honored with a prize for innovative use of AI. caltech.edu/about/news/two…
Welcome to our 2025 BrainWAVE fellows! Wishing you an inspiring summer of research! Learn more here neuroscience.caltech.edu/education/brai…
New software algorithm developed @Caltech enables scientists to detect viruses in samples and study how they impact biological functions @lpachter @NeuroLuebbert caltech.edu/about/news/a-n…
Thanks for the great presentation today @jieyusz !
My first outing of "The Unbearable Slowness of Being" at the @CaltechN Workshop today! What does living at 10 bits/s mean for humans, flies, mice, and crows? More here: jieyusz.github.io/talks/2025_che……Thanks to Profs.@CFCamerer and Carlos for the invite!

John O’Doherty @CaltechN is on a quest to understand how human brains make decisions: how they gather evidence about their environments and their own impacts on these environments and then apply this information to their decision-making. cheninstitute.org/news/how-diffe…

Congrats to Chen Institute Affiliated Faculty member @BronnerMarianne for receiving the Vilcek Award in Biomedical Science. caltech.edu/about/news/bro…
The unbearable slowness of being: Humans still clock in at just 10 bits/s. Even after peer review :) Share link for Neuron: authors.elsevier.com/a/1kHVa3BtfH9B…, ArXiv: arxiv.org/abs/2408.10234
The Neuroscience Department at UTSW is hiring! Come work with us: nature.com/naturecareers/… @UTSWNeurosci
Three papers from the Anderson lab reveal new insights into the neural signals underlying internal emotional states including aggression and sexual arousal. Congrats to David Anderson, @neuronair @AmitVinograd @GeorgeMountou @MengyuLiu96 @Antihebbiann neuroscience.caltech.edu/news/decoding-…
First Sabera at Google and The Chen Institute - congrats @SaberaTalukder
Excited to share that last week I joined @Google Research part time to take time series foundation models to the next level 🚀 Can't wait to share what we're cooking 🔥👩🍳 Fun fact according to my badges I'm the first person with the name "Sabera" to join Google 💁♀️
Excellent new preprint from one of our inaugural Chen Graduate Fellows @WadiaVarun
1/10 Very excited to announce that my thesis project is now a preprint! We present the first detailed study of mental imagery in human ventral temporal cortex, bringing together the interests of @doristsao and @UeliRutishauser. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
