Check out this new paper from the amazing prof. Shin! On the tradeoffs between robustness and efficiency of sensory representations. Congrats!
How does neural variability affect coding efficiency and robustness? We found that while the intrinsic neural variability structure is suboptimal for coding efficiency, it is, in fact, optimal for robustness! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
NADIE se salva solo. Están destrozando a la ciencia, la universidad, la salud, la cultura… nos movilizamos el 28 de mayo a las 13 hs al polo científico. Muy fuerte esta intervención en la UNQ, musicalizada como la escena de la Iglesia en el Eternauta.
The Oldenburg lab is looking for a postdoc! If you want to use holographic optogenetics to answer questions about neural codes let me know. We like shooting lasers and thinking about movement. oldenburglab.com/positions/

🚨 SIN CIENCIA NO HAY FUTURO 🚨 Julieta, Camila y María quedaron fuera de las becas de finalización del CONICET, a pesar de cumplir con los requisitos. Como ellas, 163 estudiantes en todo el país ven en riesgo años de trabajo e inversión pública en formación científica.
Excited to share our new lab paper!! from PhD work of the amazing Olivia Pedroncini. Congratulations to all authors @OPedroncini @NoelFederman Lateral entorhinal cortex afferents reconfigure the activity in piriform cortex circuits | PNAS pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…
NIH funding generated $2.46 for every $1 funded in 2023. Important info for scientific advocacy in the years ahead- science is a quantifiable investment, not just a cost. H/t to @NicoleCRust for sharing! fiercebiotech.com/research/repor…
Amazing opportunity! The brand new Neuroscience Department at UC Berkeley is hiring! 🐻 💛💙

Please RT 🗣️ For our Plan to Enhance Diverse Perspectives, our BRAIN Initiative funded LINC project is seeking to name 2 undergrads + 2 postdocs from diverse backgrounds and/or under-resourced institutions “LINC fellows” for 2024-25. Eligibility and info: connects.mgh.harvard.edu/outreach/
Very happy to receive this award alongside amazing colleagues who are actively changing the academic culture 💛
Congrats to the 2024 recipients of the Lisa Eshun-Wilson Community Awards for DEIBJ! We're proud of their exemplary commitment to advancing these initiatives in our community.👏🎉 @lisaeshunwilson mcb.berkeley.edu/news-and-event…

Check out this beautiful work from the Marin Burgin lab on learning and sensory encoding. 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷💛💛💛 bravo guys!!
Thrilled to share our new paper! We discovered that sensory processing in the olfactory cortex acquires mixed selectivity through learning, enhancing odor discrimination. Congrats to the amazing team! @NoelFederman @sebbromano @Macky155 @lucca_salomon nature.com/articles/s4146…

Sad to see Argentina in the list of countries with a large scientific exodus. Being part of it after being trained by the most brilliant, kindest mentors back home breaks my heart every day, even when my experience abroad has been extremely privileged. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
Our paper was published today! 🤓 It addresses a fundamental question at the intersection of circular RNAs and neurobiology: what is the actual functional impact of a circular RNA (circRNA) in the brain? science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Que la Universidad Pública Argentina le siga dando las oportunidades y herramientas que yo tuve a muchos más. El poder de la educación es trascendental. Orgullosa y agradecida. HOY Y SIEMPRE!
