From @AllenInstitute: 4 projects using OpenScope (an @NIH BRAIN-funded resource) to explore visual processing, including motion detection & processing textures.

My colleagues at @UBC, @vangreenmouse, and my good friend @orlandiResearch from @UCalgary will join forces with @AllenInstitute scientists. Special thanks to @JeromeLeCoq for your invaluable help and support!

[Federico Bolaños @BolanosFederico]

Thrilled to announce our OpenScope project with the @AllenInstitute! We aim to unravel how the brain processes complex visual textures. Excited to see where this journey takes us!

Short write-up of this year's OpenScope projects here:

@geerlingguy Couple other exposures. One shows the corona and the other shows the prominences.
Honestly the 3 and a half-ish minutes of totality felt much longer for some reason.

Eclipse totality as seen from Irving, TX. There were some thin clouds but surprisingly got some nice photos. What a beautiful experience. #Eclipse2024 #EclipseSolar2024
Thank you @geerlingguy for your video, it convinced me that I should see at least one eclipse in my life.

@abacaj @teknium Out of curiosity how much is the speed of the GPU slowed down when not using it at 16x PCIe. Say if I wanna fine-tune a 13B model.

For example, I have a 4090 in my 16x slot and a 3090 connected via an eGPU at 4x PCIe.

[Javier Orlandi @orlandiResearch]

Extremely happy to see this one finally out! Big chunk of the work I did while at @BenucciLab and @RIKEN_CBS with a wonderful team. And huge thanks to @HFSP for their support and for making it possible!

A quick process of tonight's lunar eclipse.
A tiny Uranus can be seen at the bottom left.
Taken with the following equipment:

150mm Maksutov Cassegrain Telescope (Intes-Micro Alter-T), 0.63x Antares reducer, SV405CC camera.

@orlandiResearch Thanks so much Javier!!

@dherrera1911 Thank you so much Daniel!

Preprint of my PhD work is up now. Turns out mice can see textures!

[Benucci Lab @BenucciLab]

New lab preprint by @BolanosFederico @orlandiResearch and collaborators. We demonstrate texture vision in mice, revealing “efficient” coding principles underlying the neural representations of texture images. 1/6 https://t.co/hGKltQ2Jq2

Registration deadline is approaching for May 14 online information session.
Don’t miss the chance to directly talk to CBS PIs🧑‍🔬👩‍🔬

I am presenting my work on visual textures in the mouse. If you are interested in vision, behavior and neural decoding then please check out my poster if you're attending the event! #cosyne22

Come checkout my work at #sfn21 !
P470.08 - Processing of visual textures in primary and secondary visual cortex of the mouse.
Turns out mice can see textures. Shoot me a message if the session time doesn't work out!
