Thrilled to announce that my lab is moving to the new Wu Tsai Institute at Yale University this summer!! It is a bittersweet move - I will miss my colleagues at UF - but I’m very excited about the opportunities (and the weather) 😊 LET’S GOOOOO

Really excited to be named one of the Sloan Fellows in Neuroscience! It's an honor to join the ranks of some seriously talented people, and I sincerely hope I can live up to it. Thank you to the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation!
🎉Congrats to the 126 early-career scientists who have been awarded a Sloan Research Fellowship this year! These exceptional scholars are drawn from 51 institutions across the US and Canada, and represent the next generation of groundbreaking researchers. sloan.org/fellowships/2025-F…

Excited to present grad student Yongxu Zhang’s work at #NeurIPS2024, on the inference of switching recurrent neural networks (SRNNs) directly from neural data. The inferred neural discrete states match behavior, and the dynamics help us predict forward in time. Come say hi @4.30!

I enjoyed moderating a faculty panel on AI and Innovation at the @Yale_Ventures Innovation Sunmit last week. Faculty from @YaleEngineering, @WuTsaiYale, @YaleLawSch, @JacksonYale, and @yale’s Center for Collaborative Arts and Media offered deep and thoughtful insights!

Amidst all the cuts in Brain Initiative funding, we are nervous to announce but thrilled to receive this NIH Brain Initiative R34 grant, together with @DrNancyPadilla and @DanWesson_ , to develop methods to understand social behaviors from multimodal data!

With joy and some sadness: rdcu.be/dApZJ We enjoyed retracing our intellectual journey, and revisiting the many papers that drove our thinking. As we were drawn to dynamical explanations, preparatory activity was our gateway drug. Work by @MattAntimatt was a key enabler

Speaker line up is 🔥and talks can be streamed for free for months!! Pro-tip: Ask your undergrads to register (for free) and they can watch talks by world-class neuroscientists including some of my favorites @shreyaneuroctrl and @talmop
Check out @Labroots Neuroscience Virtual Event Series tomorrow for some amazing neuroscience speakers! Videos will stay up for over a year and it’s free to register! So thrilled to be a part of such an exciting, accessible science event🧠 labroots.com/virtual-event/n…

Great workshop on multi-regional computations in the 🧠! Thank you to the organizers!
Replying to @SaberaTalukder
Started my day with @shreyaneuroctrl’s talk on Constrained Models of Neural Dynamics for Generalization & Insights 🧠💪 In the Multi-Regional Computations: From Data to Principles Workshop!! Organized by @mnoudelohuis @CarolineHaimerl @ulisespereirao ++

Excited to have this out in the world :) Goal-driven models in neuroscience usually specify the ‘right’ inputs and outputs for neural networks. We go one step further: we look at motor pathways as a controller for limb dynamics. This helps our models generalize much better!

“... from the computational suite on the 11th floor, I can go one flight down in the internal stairway and talk to a neurobiologist, and one flight up and talk to a behavioral psychologist — all looking at similar questions from very different approaches," @shreyaneuroctrl shared with @yaledailynews.

This hits close to my heart. Being an international researcher truly represents me. It makes you a blend of diverse identities, belonging everywhere yet nowhere. So honored to receive this from @The_Gruber_Fdtn @SfNtweets, +sharing it with @tgeiller makes it even more meaningful!
📣Not one but TWO @YaleNeuro junior faculty awarded the Peter and Patricia Gruber International Research Award in Neuroscience!!! Congratulations to @emiliafavuzzi, assistant prof, and @tgeiller, incoming assistant prof. Congratulations!!!🥳
