Last Friday, we were pleased to welcome about 80 attendees to Dr. Jesse Gomez's seminar and the CIAN academic year kick-off reception. Thank you to everyone who joined us.

A new method for translating functional brain responses between species - Spatiotemporal Hyperalignment projects shared information into a common representational space
Led by @kbraunlich.bsky.social Marianne Duyck with @bevilconway.bsky.social
Applications open for a CANADA RESEARCH CHAIR IN NETWORK SCIENCE with @connectedminds.bsky.social at York University Toronto. See: www.yorku.ca/unit/vpf/wp-...
Sock it to 'em.
BREAKING: The 2026 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine is awarded to Karl Deisseroth, Georg Nagel and Peter Hegemann for their discovery of rhodopsin and optogenetics, the ability to control cells using light and genetics
This is a two-fer: 1. IT cortex encodes not just what objects are, but also where they are. 2. Current AI does not work like IT cortex.

Some things are just wrong.
Graph neural fields can capture both the harmonic power spectrum of fMRI and the temporal power spectrum of MEG (and more). Now published (open-access) in Network Neuroscience: direct.mit.edu/netn/article...
Congrats, Yalda!
I also want to share an update from our topographic ANN work led by Haider Al Tahan (not on bsky!). What does adding topography actually do to a model’s internal representations? Does it make is more brain like? Let me tell you about TopoAudio! #neuroskyence #neuroscience #brain #neuroai
You don't need a clinical pysch degree to see who he identifies with.
How do intrinsic timescales, which reflect the temporal window of neural processing, mature during development? This study by @goliashf.bsky.social @ted-satterthwaite.bsky.social &co identifies a hierarchical trajectory, from sensorimotor to association cortices.

At least you might get a good model for dementia.
Reminder that the abstract deadline for the Pre-SfN Motor symposium is October 5!

I think he says things like this to rile people up and divide them, but I'd love to hear a psychiatrist's take.
"Expel the warmongers"? Is he talking about himself, Hegseth, or both?
📢 To everyone on the job market who has a vision for neuroscience applied to biomedical applications & technological innovation:
The Duke Department of Biomedical Engineering announces a tenure-track faculty job search in neural engineering, broadly defined!
Two from our Connected Minds community named Brain Canada Future Leaders!
