Time for an #introduction. Nervous systems — yours, mine, those of mice, fish, and insects and worms — are made up of populations of different kinds of neurons that communicate with one another. Current electron microscopy generates millimeter-scale volumes with the morphology and synaptic connectivity of up to 10^5 neurons. As a scientist at the Allen Institute, I am mapping out the cell types and connectivity rules found in cortex and building computational tools to help others do the same.

Hello! A brief #introduction - I’m an Asst Prof at Boston Children’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School. I study organizational principles of #neuralNetworks. We study #neuralCircuits underlying #motorControl, #sensoryIntegration, and #decisionMaking across species. We also develop methods for synapse-resolution #connectomics. Looking forward to learning more!

Hello world! This is my #introduction. I’m a #phd student at #UniversityofRochester studying #neuroscience #cognitiveneuroscience. Specifically, I use #psychophysics #ephys and #neuralnetworks to study the computational principles and neural correlates of perception of 3D structure in the world. I’m finishing my #phd soon and would love to explore #postdoc opportunities to continue research on understanding how animals interact with the environment and with each other.

Hello Mastodon. I am a neuroscientist and PI at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory in New York, USA. I have long-standing interests in natural behavior, the neural circuitry of auditory and olfactory communication in mice and birds, neuromodulation, and neurodevelopmental disorders. I am skeptical of some aspects of this platform, but I am keeping an open mind. @sheacshl on Twitter.

Hi Mastodon! 👋

Dipping my toes here given the situation on the birdsite. I am Editor in Chief of #PLOSBiology, interested in all things science.

A virologist by training, I am passionate about #OpenScience and making publication process a transparent and constructive one.

I look forward to chatting about science, the evolving publishing landscape, traveling, cooking and a bit of everything!

JOB ALERT (please reblog) -->

Molecular biologist for zebrafish at Janelia Research Campus, HHMI:

Woah - German government has got its own Mastodon instance and most of the ministries and many agencies already have accounts.
Verification problem at least partially solved - just need to check the domain is right!
I've also seen newspapers like theatlantic.com set up instances themselves. Looks like verification will be worked out sooner or later.

Hi All! Happy to be here - this is my #introduction. I'm an assistant professor at the University of Amsterdam and we are creating and applying fluorescent probes for imaging of cells with microscopes.
I'm also interested in image analysis and #dataViz with #opensource tools.

Hi all!

I am Akanksha, currently working as a research tech at HHMI Janelia Research Campus, engineering bioluminescent proteins for functional imaging.

My research interests lie at the interface of chemistry, biology, and engineering 🔬. 'A tool developer' describes me best - in the dry lab, I was working on a systems biology project involving detecting hard-to-find nucleotide changes with certain effects from human transcriptome datasets. Transitioning to a wet lab, I have been engineering proteins for various applications.

Being an avid learner, I spend a lot of time reading articles from across various sub-disciplines in bioscience and biotech. I'm happiest when brainstorming ideas in molecular/synthetic biology or new tools that don't exist with a near-perfect cup of coffee☕ ! Always happy to connect over a crazy idea!

Cheers!

#Introduction

I'm a computer scientist / cognitive scientist at the Santa Fe Institute, these days working on conceptual abstraction and analogy-making in AI. Fan of Bongard problems, letter-string analogies, and the Abstraction and Reasoning Corpus, among other domains.

#introduction to the #academic #science we do:
We are interested in developing and applying #computational tools and approaches to study #membrane proteins such as #ion channels and #transporters.

#introduction

I am researcher working at the interface of artificial intelligence and neuroscience. I really wear two hats.

🎩 I work at Meta Reality Labs, thinking about neuromotor neural interfaces.

🤠 I am also an adjunct professor at Stanford, where I think about neural dynamics and how they give rise to computation and behavior.

#introduction

Hello #ScienceMastodon et al!

I'm a scientist who researches how ions cross cell membranes. I study ion pumps, exchangers and channels which are all amazing nanomachines. My lab is at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine in Baltimore, Maryland (US).

I also direct a PhD training program in Cellular & Molecular Medicine so my hands are full with all things relating to grad ed.

Expect prolific #foodposting and pix of my handsome #AustralianShepherd Samwise.
