This position is part of the Allen Institute for Neural Dynamics team with a focus on high-risk/reward programs. https://lnkd.in/grT7nbEe Reach out to the hiring manager, Carl Schoonover with questions: https://lnkd.in/gQuyBKK9

Open science brings the lab to wherever researchers are. When COVID-19 made lab access difficult, Dr. Donghoon Shin and his team used the Visual Coding Dataset from the Allen Brain Observatory (https://lnkd.in/gY2c6VTD) to study visual perception. #SfN24 #OpenScienceStories #OpenScience

🚨 Exciting News! 🚨 I’m thrilled to announce our #SfN2024 𝗠𝗶𝗻𝗶𝘀𝘆𝗺𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘂𝗺 showcasing the latest advancements in large–scale, detailed models of brain circuits! 🧠✨ Please share! As if that wasn't enough, 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗝𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗼𝗳 𝗡𝗲𝘂𝗿𝗼𝘀𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 invited us to publish a review paper on the topic, now available online: https://lnkd.in/ehBmfCRu! 🎉 (PDF available here: https://lnkd.in/e8iUsPM4) 𝗦𝗳𝗡 𝗠𝗶𝗻𝗶𝘀𝘆𝗺𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘂𝗺 𝗗𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀: Title: Large-Scale Mechanistic Models of Brain Circuits With Biophysically- and Morphologically-Detailed Neurons Chairs: Salvador Dura-Bernal, PhD (SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University) and Anton Arkhipov, PhD (Allen Institute) 📅 Date & Time: Monday, October 7, 9:30 a.m.–noon 📍 Location: MCP Room S406B 🎯 Theme: Techniques (Theme I) 🔬 Abstract: The symposium will dive into the multiscale interactions within the brain, from molecules to cells to circuits. Despite the growing volume of experimental data, integrating and interpreting this data across scales is still a major challenge. This event will highlight groundbreaking progress in large-scale mechanistic modeling and explore how these models are reshaping our understanding of brain function and disease. #Neuroscience #ComputationalNeuroscience #BrainResearch #NeuralModeling #MechanisticModels #SfN

Understanding the brain requires studying its multiscale interactions. At #SfN24, Beatriz Herrera will be sharing how we approach multi-scale modeling of the mouse primary visual cortex. 📆 Mon., Oct. 7, 9:35-9:58am 📍MCP Room S406B 🎤 Session co-chaired by Anton Arkhipov

Understanding the brain requires studying its multiscale interactions, from molecules to cells to circuits and networks. Join us at #SfN24 for a minisymposium highlighting recent significant advances in large-scale mechanistic modeling of brain circuits and how it offers an unparalleled approach to integrate data and provide insights into brain function and disease. 📆 Mon., Oct. 7 ⌚️ 9:30am-12pm Central 📍MCP Room S406B 🎤 Chaired by Salvador Dura-Bernal (SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University) and co-chaired by our own Anton Arkhipov

Attending #SfN24? Don't miss the "Monoamine Neuromodulators: Cell Types, Physiology, Computation, and Behavior" symposium - chaired and featuring Principal Scientist Jeremiah Cohen. 📆 Sun., Oct. 6, 9:30am-12pm 📍 MCP Room S406A More on our Neuroscience 2024 activities 👉 https://lnkd.in/g28xXMPD
