Congratulations to Bin Wang on his paper, the first from my lab, out now in @PhysRevLett !

ALL the PIs in our center signed the following letter (this is an English translation), because it looks like our government is continuing to push everyone toward the brink with their eyes open wide.
I am delighted to share our preprint led by Palka @PuriPalka.
Our study of preprocessing of olfactory information in flies provides insight to general principles of sensory information processing in shallow neural architectures.

... but the theory assumes that neural responses in the input layer are clustered by the odor "meaning".
That assumption turns out to not be true.
Electrical coupling in the periphery comes to rescue the beautiful neural architecture and the theory.

Congratulations to Palka @PuriPalka for receiving the @UCSanDiego GPSA Interdisciplinary Research Award!
Pictured with Palka are Chih-Ying @SuLabUCSD and I looking and feeling very proud.
The distortion and disintegration of grid cells' patterned activity challenges the idea that those cells are a "neural GPS" used for spatial navigation.
@gilyginosar and friends review the evidence.
Out today @NeuroCellPress

All universities in Israel are on strike starting Monday, protesting the government's anti-democratic takeover of the judiciary.
No instruction until further notice.
A delay in notification will cause problems for many international scientists who need to plan their travel around visa applications (to enter Canada) and renewals (to return home).

Looking forward to visiting the Hebrew University tomorrow, and to present our work led by @PuriPalka , with @ShiuanTze and @SuLabUCSD
#ELSCseminarseries with @yahdef on the topic of "Shallow networks run deep: How peripheral preprocessing facilitates odor classification" will take place on Thursday, January 19th,14:30 IST.
Come hear the lecture at ELSC: Room 2004, Goodman bldg.

Hi @airserbia , I tried buying a ticket on your website.
It says that the payment is processing for 40 minutes.
I am now trying to call customer service, no answer for 20 minutes.
Can someone tell me if the ticket was purchased?

Bin Wang will present our work on distributed predictive processing.
Based on our model, we think that loose balance allows prediction error and stimulus representations to mix.
