October 28, 2019 First Annual Review of the NIH Neuroprobe project
Instead of having a closed door discussion, we decided to make our annual review open to general public. The 10-min talks given by students and postdocs will be covering our current achievements and problems we encountered during the first year of funded efforts. Besides advocating on exciting opportunities for engineering in brain research, this format will be a great exercise for students in public presentation.

October 23, 2019 Posters presented at the Society for Neuroscience meeting

First results of our collaboration with amazing @alexschwing and @ColinGraber has been presented at the #Barrels 2019 workshop and at the #SfN2019. The papers describe #ML-based interpretable model to uncover hidden dynamical structure of brain information flows.
