NeuroTechers

Grad student & Postdoc club for neuroscience enthusiasts at @Caltech. We host academic, social and outreach events related to neuroscience. 🧠

Huge thanks to @UeliRutishauser for sharing with the NeuroTechers Club, great session!

Single-neuron recordings in human VTC show that ~40% of visually responsive neurons are reactivated during imagery, suggesting shared neural coding between perception and imagination.

1/8 Our preprint is now a peer-reviewed paper :) Big thanks to our reviewers who pushed us to examine our results more carefully and Olivier Wyart (https://t.co/pQgGhUgdQi) for the exquisite visual. https://t.co/uQzvMXhB7r

Thank you Professor Markus Meister for being our guest at the @NeuroTechers Fireside Chat. We enjoyed the thoughtful, wide-ranging discussion. Stay tuned for future events from us 🔥🧠 @CaltechN

[Geeling Chau @GeelingC]

Been enjoying running the @NeuroTechers Neuro+ML Journal Club with @BTolooshams! We recently had a blast discussing with @mehdiazabou and @anton_iades about large models for neuroscience 🧠

Looking forward to more this quarter!

[Jieyu Zheng @jieyusz]

Thank you all for attending our first @NeuroTechers Fireside chat of the year! Many thanks to @MengyuLiu96 @Yi_SangHyun @neurosenthali Weilun and Jon for sharing your precious neuroscience experiences at Caltech @CaltechN! We learned a lot about advisor-wrangling strategies 😉

If you were at Pasadena Ice Skating Center earlier, you may have caught some Neurotechers zoom-zooming on ice! Hope to see y’all at our next social :)

[Jieyu Zheng @jieyusz]

Thank you Professor Paul Sternberg for being our guest at the @NeuroTechers fireside chat! We enjoyed very much the conversation about C. elegans intelligence. Stay tuned for future events from us @NeuroLuebbert @CaltechN!

Wanted to go to bed dreaming about the “#LoveIsBlindLIVE,” but instead has nightmares about my kids ringing the “wrong” doorbell.

Can we at minimum keep our kids safe in the country their ancestors built?

Like, this can’t be what our inheritance looks like.

What an amazing start to @CaltechN's 3rd Chen Institute Symposium!

Such an honor to be @betenoire1's mic runner 🎤🏃‍♀️

Can't wait to 👀 what @lisa_giocomo Loren @eazim @kaymtye Mala @cocosci_lab @stevens1lab @bijanpesaran Richard & @IshmailSaboor have in store for us tomorrow 🧠

[Ishmail Abdus-Saboor @IshmailSaboor]

In 2015 @BWFUND invested in me and @davidvanvalen as postdocs through PDEP program to increase diversity in science. We met at the new investigator meeting and have supported each other since.

Now, we’re @Columbia and @Caltech in our own labs making good on their investment.

[NeuroTechers @NeuroTechers]

@MarliniSimoes @Caltech @NSF @CaltechEAS @CaltechPostdocs @CaltechLive Congrats! 😊

[Sarah Wandelt @sarah_wandelt]

Super excited to share a preprint! At @Caltech, we build the first closed-loop brain-machine (#BMI) interface that is able to decode internal speech 💭. Check it out here: https://t.co/8bNDtGA6w2

[Caltech Neuroscience @CaltechN]

We’re excited to have @IshmailSaboor speak this week at the 2023 Chen Institute Biennial Symposium @Caltech

[Laura Luebbert, PhD @NeuroLuebbert]

Thank you @georgiagkioxari for joining us tonight at our monthly @NeuroTechers fireside AMA! We talked about computer vision and the lack of Greek food in the US 💻👀

Thank you @JieyuZheng3 for co-organizing and to all attendees for a great discussion

Stay 🎵 for our next guest

[NeuroTechers @NeuroTechers]

For October’s fireside chat, we were honored to have Prof. John Allman talking about anterior cingulate cortex and his academic life! Many thanks to our academic event co-chairs @NeuroLuebbert and @JieyuZheng3 for hosting! Stay tuned for our next event in December!
