RT from Manuel Beiran on the blue bird about his new paper on parametric control of low-dimensional manifolds (a joint work with @nicognitive, Srdjan Ostojic, Mehrdad Jazayeri and Hansem Sohn out in Neuron last week).
Here is the open-access link:

What neural mechanisms support generalization in temporal tasks? How can neural dynamics be controllable by inputs? Thread reproduced here:
(I realize that some of these suggestions would best be used simulatenously, e.g., #newPaper and #preprint have obviously different content. What I am searching for is a common tag for *threads* explaining research articles, not only posts announcing a new publication 🙂.
I had to drop one tag bc of the 5-option limit in polls, and I went for #mastoPrint as it was my own suggestion.)
Some further thoughts:
One could combine these tags in a standardized way with research field names, e.g. #newNeuroPaper, #neuroPreprint, or #neuroPaperThread.
Also, please remember to use #camelCase or #CamelCase notation in these tags for screenreader accessibility!
Tagging some people who responded to my first post (sorry for bothering you!):

Hi #science #research #mastodon community! A few days ago, a post of mine recieved a lot of attention. Thanks for the engagement and the very interesting suggestions! https://neuromatch.social/@LeonDLotter/109632615134117119
On #Twitter, I loved the common practice of writing threads explaining new #preprints and #papers in an understandable way.
I uttered my concern that through the chronological timeline here people might miss interesting science. A solution would be to agree on names for hashtags and/or a.gup.pe groups to ease tracking these "paper threads".
Following tags were named more then once: #newPaper #paperThread #preprint #researchPaper #mastoPrint #tootPrint.
Also, there was #tootorial, but that might be a slightly different category?
I heard people like participation - so let's do a poll! What's your favourite tag for threads explaining research articles? 📊 Multiple choices possible!

On #scienceTwitter, my favourite thing was reading and, on rare occasions, writing "paper/preprint threads". From the researchers I followed and through the #Twitter algorithm, this became my most important source for new #research. While people start to do the same on #Mastodon, I have the feeling that I miss important work bc no algorithm "saves" it for me if I don't watch my timeline constantly. Two simple solutions would be: a commonly accepted hashtag that everybody uses when writing "paper threads" or an [...] @ a.gup.pe group with a similar adaptation rate. #Question 1: is there already a mechanism for this that I missed? #Question 2: What hashtag or group name? I saw #TootPrint before. Maybe #PaperInAToot? #PaperInAPost? #PaperInAThread? #PaperPost? #MastoPrint? Suggestions and boosts, please, we need reach for this! 🤓 #TwitterMigration #Science #Scientist @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected]
Abstract. Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST), an aggressive soft-tissue sarcoma, occurs in people with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and sporadically. Whole-genome and multi-regional exome sequencing, transcriptomic, and methylation profiling of 95 tumor samples revealed the order of genomic events in tumor evolution. Following biallelic inactivation of NF1, loss of CDKN2A or TP53 with or without inactivation of polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) leads to extensive somatic copy number aberrations (SCNAs). Distinct pathways of tumor evolution are associated with inactivation of PRC2 genes and H3K27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) status. Tumors with H3K27me3 loss evolve through extensive chromosomal losses followed by whole genome doubling and chromosome 8 amplification, and show lower levels of immune cell infiltration. Retention of H3K27me3 leads to extensive genomic instability, but an immune cell-rich phenotype. Specific SCNAs detected in both tumor samples and cell-free DNA (cfDNA) act as a surrogate for H3K27me3 loss and immune infiltration, and predict prognosis.

I agree, this is one of the main things I found useful about "Science Twitter". I like #MastoPrint, and also suggest #PaperThread.

Is there yet a mastodon alternative for #tweeprint?
Anyway, here goes a #mastoprint 🪩
