It is time to retract this paper.

@Nature, what are you waiting for?

Time to start rethinking how we publish in neuroimaging. Delighted about how unanimous a decision this was across editorial boards and how former EICs were consulted and supported this decision. Big props for @fmrib_steve for leading the way!!!

HuggingGPT is the most interesting paper I read this week. It gets very close to the "Everything App" vision that I described a while ago.

ChatGPT acts as a controller over the *AI model space*, picks the right model (app) given the human specification, and assembles them correctly to solve the task. It's multimodal in a "low-bandwidth" way - all modalities need to be compressed and connected through text strings.

HuggingGPT is also related to Prismer's idea: leverage pre-trained domain expert models as much as possible. Sometimes training less is doing more!

If you’re in Montreal you should head on over to this expo at Centre PHI Saturday, should be super cool

Can we normalize citing co-first authored papers as Author1, Author2 et al. (Year)? Science has changed, with many big projects requiring multiple co-leaders (with diverse knowledge+skills). It doesn't seem like too much to ask to acknowledge both/all co-leaders in this way.

@HaniehFalahati Which region is it from? I've seen data in the brainstem before, but I'm wondering if there is any evidence of a broader distribution to the phenomenon ?

2nd example is Inner Monologue (https://t.co/ByDDCp8p2U) led by @xiao_ted, @xf1280 and @wenlong_huang, where we bring in VLMs to provide feedback about the scene, task success etc.

All these different models talk to each other in natural language so that LLM can understand.

Secondary data analysis can only be insightful if the original data is reliable, but you usually can't know how well it was managed...

A frequent misconception among people using mouse genetics :
CreERT2 + Tamoxifen is VERY toxic to proliferating cells.
More than Cre.
So all your control mice should have CreERT2 + Tamoxifen.
Yes it complicates things a lot, but is the only way fwd. See more on this below 👇

@fchollet Helping the partner remotely, is the next level. Having to remember the place well enough to imagine places he could have played with... So where did the 2 year old hide the car keys? In the microwave of his play-kitchen...

Hello calcium imaging twitter, I have a thread for you. We made a self-supervised network that is great at ROI classification and tracking over sessions.
If you do calcium imaging, it'll probably save you time.
Help me improve it. Send your ROI masks to: [email protected]

Are you doing ephys with optogenetics and are having issues with light-induced artifacts? I learned this great trick from @SteinmetzNeuro, it either completely solves the artifact or greatly reduces it. (1/3)

New paper! We provide an important clue into the neuronal basis that underlies spatial memory deficits commonly reported in the earliest stages of Alzheimer's disease.

Spoiler alert... grid cells!

I think an awful lot of the tech bro utopian vision (crypto, metaverse, etc.) is about dudes not liking being told what they can and can't do in society, and trying to create overlay/end-run systems where they are in control.

I'm not vegetarian, but as a neuroscientist, I don't eat squid - any other neuroscientists feel the same?
