A new study led by @timothy_sit shows that different layers of mouse V1 integrate visual and non-visual signals differently. L2/3 activity is dominated by vision (or spontaneous fluctuations) and L5 by movement. This leads to different geometries. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Young scientists regularly ask me for career advice. Academia or industry? Big company or startup? US or Europe? Good scientists in AI disciplines are fortunate to have many choices. But choosing can be stressful. I always give the same advice. 1/10
Are you interested in how neuronal populations integrate external and internal signals to drive behavior? Join our lab as a postdoc! We are looking for people with diverse skills, from computational to experimental.For more information, see ucl.ac.uk/cortexlab/posi….

Exciting preprint of @jasmanley et al. (Alipasha Vaziri's lab) extending the findings of @computingnature, @marius10p et al. (Science/Nature 2019) from 10,000 to 1 million cortical neurons.
Simultaneous, cortex-wide and cellular-resolution neuronal population dynamics reveal an unbounded scaling of dimensionality with ... biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #biorxiv_neursci
