I cofounded a worker coop called https://xitter.cf/t.co/xY1x62EGmb. I come here about once a month. Come find me on the Open Ephys discord server.

Dear science world, I need help, please. If you like the tools and data we generate, and our shareware attitude, can you please co-apply for funding with us? It turns out that I'm terrible at writing grants, and we need $$ or else we can't make more GCaMPs, RCaMPs,

Harvard's @KempnerInst has announced a postdoc fellowship w/ a 3yr $100k salary + access to one of the world's largest #MachineLearning clusters. Neurobiological work encouraged. My lab has SO. MUCH. DATA. If ML of brain evolution is up your alley, DM me! shorturl.at/kBE18

The ONIX system is a game-changer for systems neuroscience 👏👏
It's an unspoken fact that freely moving lab mice are not really freely moving. We came up with a method to change this. See the preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… (1/3)

We still have a postdoc position in my lab at @HHMIJanelia where we use approaches like this to figure out how mice can quickly learn flexible computations by building and using models of their environment. Get in touch if this sound fun and interesting!

Congrats to @mingfaifong, on receiving the @RPB_org Walt and Lilly Disney Award for Amblyopia Research!
Fong will use the award to further research to improve the lives of individuals with amblyopia, or lazy eye. bit.ly/3K5Lofy

Curious to learn how extracellular electrophysiology acquisition systems work and build one yourself?
📝Applications for our remote @Cajal_Training #Neurokit Course (Oct 9-13th) are open!
Apply here before August 22nd: cajal-training.org/neurokit/…

My lab will soon have a full-time, multi-year position available for a comparative MRI project on the neurobiology & evolution of aggression. Will adjust to suit: PhD position, postdoc fellowship, or full time staff role. Email or DM for info! 🧠🦊🐵🤓

I finished documenting my rogowski coil current probe! Its a high frequency AC current probe that is small enough to fit between the leads of a TO-220 packaged transistor.
Project is entirely open source!

1/3 Want to give your mice a gift? Open Ephys Commutators are now available: open-ephys.org/commutators/c…! They use the orientation information provided by Miniscopes and ONIX headstages to provide near zero-torque tether commutation during free exploration.

Do you enjoy #neuroimaging analysis? Want to apply your skills in a lab studying brain evolution in dogs, foxes, humans, other primates, and more? Apply here bit.ly/61689BR & feel free to DM me! PhD not required. For PhDs, can also hire as postdoc. Full time + benefits.

Friends, we need your help. An Wu, a postdoc from UCSD is missing post-Cosyne. We're trying to locate her. We're worried she may have been staying at a building that had a bad fire this week. If you have any information about where An was staying or last seen please contact me.

Less than an year ago I attended an amazing summer school, @tenss_ed! Learnt a lot from instructors across the world. Then thought I’ll share a piece of that fun filled training to the rest of the world! Here’s a glimpse of that :
