🎉Congrats to @CenFutureAIMS Student Fellow @Tyfoods4Thought on his first publication!

His team (@warrenmansell & @rfo_pena) links #PerceptualControlTheory to the #FreeEnergyPrinciple to provide a unified account of how living systems behave

Feeling Frazzled? That may not be a bad thing. Using genetics, imaging & computational modeling, @FAUScience researchers at #FAUJupiter revealed that this protein plays a key role in optimizing neuronal communication 🧠 https://t.co/u44TT3f72S

Long overlooked, glial cells – non-neuronal cells that protect and communicate with neurons – are finally getting attention. A new @FAUScience @FauBrain study shows the surprising influence of glial cells called astrocytes and their role in brain function. https://t.co/wFzuQd0kAy

@AshkaanF Same here 😅

NSF makes you say who you got conflicts (coauthored) with. We (really just Jordan Matelsky @j6m8 ) just built you a tool for that. Literally one click (on top of revealing your name): https://t.co/nkl7fa5g8H - one of the most useful tools the lab ever built.

@RichCompNeuro Funny that I am not even a native speaker and I can see it right away 😂

[OCNS @CNSorg]

We had an excellent CNS*2024! 🎉 Thank you all for your participation and for making the talks, workshops, tutorials, and posters so enjoyable! 🙌 Special thanks to @rennocosta and his team for their outstanding work in organizing the event! 👏✨ #CNS2024Natal

I have created a website for my visuals of dynamical motifs! These provide a nice introduction to dynamical systems in the context of neuroscience. Also thank you to Dr. Paul Miller for giving me permission to animate his figures. https://t.co/HoR7wpwSjy

@ashleyruba_phd Is that ranked in order of importance?

[Lorenzo Fontolan @lorifonto]
