Excited to share the preprint of my first 1st author paper with @anzal_ks and @bhalla_lab from @NCBS_Bangalore: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…. @biorxiv_neursci @biorxivpreprint

Mechanisms and implications of high depolarization baseline offsets in conductance-based neuronal...

Somatic step-current injection is commonly used to characterize the electrophysiological properties of neurons. Many neuronal types show a large depolarization baseline offset (DBLO), which is...

The push towards hypothesis-driven research is one of the key mistakes in the neuroscience field. In exponentially sized hypothesis spaces it simply is not a useful way of making progress. The convert-new-tech-into-hypothesis-progress industrial complex is a problem.

have ppl found any funders that support toolmaking? I want to keep making tools for people, but there is a seemingly irresistible force pushing us towards hypothesis-driven research. so far, funders don't want to hear about tech dev. insights for neuro & climate would be great tx

Sci-Hub and Library Genesis has been defined in the literature as 'Black Open Access' model. In the last few months I've been working on a paper, where I explain that Sci-Hub is actually 'Red Open Access' while Library Genesis can be understood as a subtype of 'Green Open Access'. The preprint is available here: preprints.org/manuscript/202… commentaries and criticisms are welcome. You can send them to me by email. The picture with Sci-Hub's statistics comes from that paper. The number of PDF downloads from Sci-Hub per month, 2016-2023. Surprisingly, the usage of the website only increased after 2020, and that is only counting statistics from original website, not even counting numerous Sci-Hub mirrors!

You can do that even now. Upload the pdf to chatgpt or Gemini and ask away all your queries. That's how I've been going through a bunch of papers in the last couple of months.

In addition to elucidating the mechanisms underlying DBLO, which will result in more accurate and reliable models, we also provide a novel way to characterize a neuron’s morphological and electrotonic characteristics via its wide-spectrum impedance amplitude profile. 10/n

Even after 70 years of Hodgkin-Huxley models, gaps remain in our understanding of neural dynamics. Developing accurate neuronal models could bridge these gaps and provide deeper insights into the emergent behavior of biological neural networks in both health and disease. 11/n
