Our latest findings on social behavior circuits is out: how does the brain responds to social isolation? Terrific work by @dingliu.bsky.social et al. uncovering a circuit with similar neural architecture as physiological needs (hunger, thirst, sleep..). Detailed thread soon. rdcu.be/ebo63

New work accepted to #AISTATS2025 ✨ We developed a new explainable AI method to better understand time-series data. We can map back inputs (neurons) to their latent space. Basically merging #CEBRA with measuring the individual neurons contribution over time arxiv.org/abs/2502.12977
