Posted on the neuropixels slack but might as well ask online too. Is anyone going from neuropixels to kilosort to waveform shape analysis for cell type classification? I’m having trouble finding examples.

If you're wondering what this is for, I am updating the backend to monitor new clinical trials for #MultipleSclerosis that feeds this page: gregory-ms.com/trials/

#NeuroDon, #MSchat, I'm setting up searches for central nervous system regeneration and remyelination. What keywords and sources should I use?

Please boost this post.

» But the brain is nothing like a digital computer.
There is no software independent of biology.
Even as neural circuits are computing the current moment and predicting the next, the brain’s structure, including molecules, dendrites and synapses, is changed forever.
It is the biology and plasticity of the brain itself that matter for all experience and action and all psychiatric illness.
There is nothing left over «

What would a solid scientific study tell us: does the inverting input causally affect V_out in a typical Operational Amplifier?

See below for two accurate images at different abstraction levels.

» But to what extent & at what scales
brain dynamics & function depend on the specific details of their nodes & edges

&, on the other hand,

to what extent
simple network structure retains sufficient information to account for brain structure, dynamics, & function

are not yet totally clear questions «

Professor @melaniemitchell gives 2023 #MargaretBoden Lecture:

”argues that the inability to form conceptual abstractions—and to make abstraction-driven analogies—is a primary source of brittleness and unreliability in state-of-the-art #AI systems”

”I think the the problem that AI has faced at least up till recently is that it has relied on #statistical associations rather than forming concepts”

Can you understand *everything* about a butterfly by only dissecting it and/or fixing it for tissue studies?

Is there a way to study neuromodulation, particularly invasive neuromodulation, outside of institutional confines? Outside of huge capital raises? Something anchored in community, in accessibility and egalitarianism?

What do you think?
