@DanielleFong 10 years ago HHMI Janelia and Draper labs made steerable real dragonflies. Does that count?

Just published yesterday, the #BANC! A full central nervous system (CNS) connectome of a limbed animal enables us to trace sensory-motor arcs and understand how the CNS controls the body. https://t.co/19jmEfxEVH #neuroscience @Nature, Video by @quorumetrix, sound on! 1/18

1/ We’re so glad to share this new study 💫
Does the brain learn like a Deep Net? 🧠⚙️

@FatherPhi @stevenstrogatz This is the same problem as how many R’s in strawberry. You are just reaching for sub-token length so of course it performs poorly. But I am bored by these.

@neurovium Thank you for always being supportive of our work

[gerald pao @PLURplus]

We created a new data driven science algorithm that is comparable to neural networks predicting and simulating brains w/o latent variables & guaranteed explainability. Variables are experimentally testable & provide a mathematical proof for universality.

New preprint from the lab!

How do tissue shapes influence cell fate decisions?

By manipulating brain organoid geometry, we show that lumen rounding directs apical progenitor division mode and promotes the emergence of basal progenitors.

@deepfates @DanielleFong This was the same year as Rummelharts Back propagation paper that made it possible. This was much better than Boltzmann machines

@deepfates @DanielleFong NetTalk the first neural network that could convert text into speech was from 1986

Evo 2, our fully open-source biological foundation model trained on trillions of DNA tokens spanning the entire tree of life, is out in @Nature today

We & the scientific community have done a lot with this @arcinstitute @nvidia model in the last year! 🧵👇

@seemaychou Thank you so much

[gerald pao @PLURplus]

Our new preprint demonstrates experimentally the existence of causation without correlation at transcriptional network nodes where information integration occurs within biological networks and on the surface of low dimensional manifolds

@jordanschochet Check out the recent work by Doyne Farmer, you might enjoy his relatively recent book.

[Vivek Natarajan @vivnat]

During Thanksgiving break last year, our AI co-scientist team @GoogleDeepMind @GoogleResearch - @Mysiak @alan_karthi met Prof @jrpenades @CostaT_Lab of @ImperialCollege.

They were nearing a breakthrough on how bacteria share resistance genes and proposed a test for our AI co-scientist: pose their exact research question to the system and see what it found.

Today in @CellCellPress, we share the results.

oops did it again

[gerald pao @PLURplus]

Last month at the Mathematical foundations of biological organization meeting at Les Diablerets 🇨🇭got to hang out with some dynamical systems legends and ran into some unexpected old friends at the meeting Nextdoor.

[gerald pao @PLURplus]

The “Manifolds in Nature” meeting this year was held in Geneva, Switzerland 🇨🇭 on May 11-16 organized by Stanislav Smirnov and myself. This edition was more focused on the mathematics. It intersected with the Georges de Rham lectures by two of the meeting participants.

To students who have been impacted by the current uncertainty in the U.S. that have been already accepted or are currently in U.S. graduate programs we are now accepting applications for a special admissions cycle. Deadline June 15th.
