@lindedomingo You can ping me anytime if you wanna bounce your ideas off someone. Curious to hear what you’re thinking up! Knowing you, must be something interesting.
My #introduction is overdue. I’m a professor at Penn who studies memory using systems and computational approaches. I’m also writing a book: When it comes to understanding the brain, what are we trying to achieve? What’s our plan to get there? What challenges do we face? #neuroscience #author
Writing has deepened my appreciation for community-based progress. I’m excited to be on this inclusive platform where we can leverage collective intelligence, and work through conceptual blocks together.
Ok, #introduction time!
I lead a research group where we build computational predictive models to understand biological motor control. Most of my work has been on human locomotion, because it is an ecologically relevant task that is challenging to model. Since starting my group at #MIT our scope has broadened.
Our models are based on theoretical concepts in optimization, control, and learning. We always seek to build models that are empirically grounded, and help us distill simple principles.
Hi! I am a cognitive neuroscientist studying how individual experiences are transformed into generalised knowledge. I use #fmri #rsa and #modelling techniques to understand which information our brain uses to structure representations of the world we live in. I am a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Freiburg. #introduction
Hey, y’all. My name is Chris. I’m a geoscientist, working for the engineering company Jacobs. I’m from Derby, but currently based near Manchester, on the side of the Peak District, which allows me to do two things I really like; running and cycling. When not messing fiddling with the Earth, I’m usually found discussing social justice issues with a pint. I’m the woke Black man that your granny warned you about…
@lindedomingo I like to start the process with a reading week, either for inspiration or making a vague idea more concrete. Then start writing down ideas as soon as possible, and work on that document as often as possible.
Reading other people’s proposals, and reviewing grants for various funders, is one of the most valuable things! The best proposals are written in simple terms, explain clearly, and make the problem & solution crystal clear to me early on. That’s my two-pence!
Next week we have our third free Raincloudplots virtual workshop - Sign up and join us to learn how to make rainclouds in R, Python, Matlab or JASP! https://github.com/jorvlan/raincloudplots-workshops
#introduction: I'm a #neuroscientist working at the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience (Amsterdam, the Netherlands) and the Institute de la Vision (Paris); with a teaching appointment in Experimental Psychology at Utrecht University. I work on #vision & #cognition; using #neurophysiology, #neuroimaging, #behavior, & #brain #stimulation. See also http://pcklink.com
Hi, I'm a Max Planck Research Group Leader at MPI Leipzig and a Professor for Computational Cognitive Neuroscience and Quantitative Psychiatry at University of Giessen.
My team and I study visual and semantic processing in human brains, behavior, and artificial neural networks. Vision and semantics are complex, so we founded the THINGS initiative (https://things-initiative.org), an effort across >15 labs to collect massive brain/behavioral datasets about objects from all angles.
👋
I'm Chris Baker, a cognitive neuroscience researcher at the National Institute of Mental Health USA interested in all things vision and the brain.
We use neuroimaging (fMRI, MEG), brain stimulation (TMS, tES) and behaviour (incl.eye tracking) to try and understand how the light falling on the retina is processed to allow us to perceive a world full of people, places and things.

@pokerface@sfba.social makes a lot of sense from a basic science point of view!
Amazing vacancy for a group leader post at the Max Planck in Germany https://www.mpib-berlin.mpg.de/1568190/2022-11-02-lip-research-scientist
#introduction I’m a Prof at the Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging (CCNi), UofG, Scotland, studying human memory. My lab uses a range of tools, including behaviour, EEG/MEG, fMRI and intracranial (single unit + LFP) EEG recordings, trying to understand how the human brain reconstructs past experiences from memory, and how our memories change over time and when we repeatedly remember something.

Ever wondered whether spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) plays a role in human episodic memory? In our new preprint we @Kimron_Shapiro & @SimonHanslmayr present behavioural evidence in a human episodic memory experiment that is consistent with STDP. Here’s how we did it: https://twitter.com/biorxivpreprint/status/1588354845605511168
