If the brain contains learning systems that can optimize cost functions / minimize error signals, what might those cost functions / error signals be? I don’t mean the obvious ones like next step prediction. Rather, the interesting ones that train a human to be a human. 🧵

The age of Neural Engineering is here... and @maxhodak_'s Science Corp is on the frontier: ‣ Curing blindness ‣ Merging mind & machine with BCIs ‣ Today, revealing a new kind of neural probe ‣ And exploring consciousness itself on Episode 65 of S3.


Using bio + electronic hybrids for BCI. Great stuff from Science Corp!

I had an idea in college which I've long thought could be, in many ways, the ultimate BCI technology. What if instead of using electrodes, we used biological neurons embedded in electronics to communicate with the brain? Enter biohybrid neural interfaces: science.xyz/news/biohybrid…



AI for bio needs a wet loop. So why not do it in vivo? Great perspective piece from @GordianBio

The success of AI applied to drug discovery is being decided by a number of clinical trials. So far, the results are lackluster. Why? For AI to have a transformational effect in drug discovery, training data must come from living mammals. (🧵1/9)

At @E11BIO, we thank @jamesfickel for his generous support! Check out the other amazing brain & longevity projects he has backed: Amaranth Foundation, Bexorg, @age1vc, Enigma Project, @ForestNeurotech, @loyalfordogs, @Cyclarity

My exclusive today on the biggest investor in brain and longevity science that you've never heard of. James Fickel turned a crypto fortune into a research empire bloomberg.com/news/articles/…



We were featured in @BiocomCA sharing our mission for brain circuit mapping!

As part of our Your Story is Our Story series, @E11BIO shares their visionary approach to revolutionizing neuroscience. Discover how their detailed brain circuit mapping aims to transform our understanding of conditions like #Alzheimers and #Epilepsy



Great opportunity for open science projects!

💫Applications are open for Astera’s first residency cohort💫 We are seeking creative, high-agency scientists, engineers, and entrepreneurs passionate about building open projects for public benefit 🧵

FROs are launching in the UK in partnership with @ARIA_research @fiftyyears @RenPhil21 @GoogleDeepMind and others!

Excited to announce our new partnership with @ARIA_research! As an Activation Partner, we will be launching Focused Research Organizations (FROs) in the UK (“FROST UK”) in ARIA’s opportunity spaces. Stay tuned for our open call for proposals in Spring 2025 convergentresearch.org/blog/aria-coll…
