💡#Awareness: A unit of #time⏳, not #space 🌍

In our #Zoomposium, one of the most renowned #brain researchers of our time, #WolfSinger, talks about the mysteries of our thinking organ and presents new approaches.

Hội nhập transcriptome và connectome, SpaCon phát hiện mối liên hệ giữa biểu hiện gen và kết nối não. Mô hình này sử dụng thuật toán mã hóa đồ thị để dự đoán kết nối từ dữ liệu gen, phân loại chính xác các loại tế bào thần kinh. Độ chính xác cao, hiệu quả tính toán vượt trội, nghiên cứu trên nhiều loài. #KHCN #NgônNgữMôTếBào #Connectome #AI #BrainResearch #SpaCon #Genetics #Neuroscience #KHCNViệtNam

🧠 New paper by Huang et al.: By using #pharmacological #fMRI and dynamic #connectome-based #PredictiveModeling, they show how #cortisol reshapes whole-brain #NetworkDynamics during emotional memory encoding. Trial-level analyses reveal distinct but increasingly integrated #arousal and #memory networks under #stress, supporting a hormonally driven "memory formation mode".

🧠 New paper by Clark et al. (2025) shows that the #dimensionality of #PopulationActivity in #RNN can be explained by just two #connectivity parameters: effective #CouplingStrength and effective #rank. Uses networks with rapidly decaying singular value spectra and structured overlaps between left and right singular vectors. Could be useful for interpreting large scale population recordings and connectome data I guess:

Anne Churchland (CSHL) 1: How do brains decide?

#neurology #brain #connectome #neuroscience #decision

The #connectome may be important, but it does not seem to help understand neuronal activity patterns:

"Comprehensive neuronal identification enabled us to examine the relationship between whole-brain activity and the connectome but we found no strong correlations between them."

https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cell.2020.12.012

Replication: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2022.06.039

The structure of a nervous system is one thing, but its relation to NS function seems to be much more tenuous than we may have hoped for.

How much can a #connectome tell us about the activity of neurons? It seems not all that much:

"neuronal perturbation often prompted responses from cells that had no anatomical connections to the target cell"

We have received the reviews for our "Neural #Connectome of the Ctenophore Statocyst" paper from @eLife

"This fundamental work significantly advances our understanding of gravity sensing and orientation behavior in the ctenophore, an animal of major importance in understanding the evolution of nervous systems. Through comprehensive reconstruction with volumetric electron microscopy, and time-lapse imaging of cilia motion ... []"
