🤩CNC grad and @aolab_neuro lab member Katherine P. studies complex movement learning in monkeys (~39 sec). #SfN24 #Neuroscience

What problems are neuroscientists🧠 at the biggest neuro conference in the world spending their careers working to solve? Do you see a person or topic you recognize at #SfN24?👀 #neuroscience



We are thrilled for our colleague David Baker who has won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry! David's work shows the awesome power of data and computation in solving problems in biology.

University of Washington biochemist David Baker has won the 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his pioneering work designing new proteins that can neutralize viruses, target cancer cells, and more. Read more from @uwmedicine: go.uw.edu/2024NobelPrize #NobelPrize #GoHuskies

Great thread from @NicoleCRust following her inspiring visit. Leadership from @ruimcosta, @HongkuiZeng, @svoboda314 , @JeremiahYCohen, @andyhickl is strengthening partnerships between @allenInstitute and neuroscience at @UW and @uwcnc; a genuinely joyous and exciting time!

Blown away by these last two days at the @AllenInstitute and @UW. Here the researchers are not only doing the next big thing, but also pondering the next 5 steps that will change the world. It's breathtaking. Let me tell you a bit about what saw that got me so excited.

"Big buzz! @Nature published ~a dozen papers on the most comprehensive map of neuronal connectivity to date, a connectome of a fruit fly brain! The FlyWire consortium includes @UW_NBIO affiliate Forrest Collman and Shanahan Fellow Sven Dorkenwald (@sdorkenw). @FlyWireNews


Great seminar yesterday from the always fascinating Kim Stachenfeld (@neuro_kim)!

This summer, we partnered with @TReNDinAfrica to host a computational neuroscience course, built on Allen Institute tools and data, for 20 students from across the African continent. Simangele Shablala, a Ph.D. student at @ukzn, shares highlights from the course.
