I'm so heartbroken to see all the homes destroyed by the firestorms in Greater Los Angeles —for both people and wildlife. This palm tree on @caltech.edu campus was once a food bank for resident acorn woodpeckers. My photo was taken just five days before the disaster. #wildfires #birds

@caltech.edu might be a small campus, but never short of wildlife! Here are some #wildlife photos I took over the past few months /n #addBirder #birds

I wrote about a scientific paper called “The Unbearable Slowness of Being” which finds that the human brain’s throughput is just 10 bits per second. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2024/12/26/s... 🧪

Congrats to @jieyusz.bsky.social and @mameister4.bsky.social on their Neuron paper unpacking an unresolved paradox in neuroscience. It's terrific to see it capture the public imagination, including Scientific American. www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-...

Attached is a piece of art by me for "The Unbearable Slowness of Being: Why do we live at 10 bits/s?" Hope this will inspire you to think about the brain from a new perspective!

"[It’s] the largest unexplained number in brain science. I feel like neuroscience should pay more attention to it ..." said Marcus Meister when @claudia-lopez.bsky.social sat down with him and @jieyusz.bsky.social for a Q&A about the brain's information-processing rate. #neuroskyence bit.ly/3ZXxWTf

This upcoming winter term @caltech.edu, I’ll lead an undergraduate tutorial on "The Ethology of Learning"👇! It’ll run 10 weeks (1-hour lectures + 2-hour readings per week). Suggestions for readings + nominations for guest lectures are welcomed! Things to do over the holidays...

Huge thanks to @johnjvastola for the kind invitation and intro! 🙏 And to the @harvardmed neuroscience audience for your questions. 🧠✨ Hope this talk sparked ideas on the role of the cortex! Slides now uploaded: https://t.co/gEUqQGNlVm https://t.co/eEN4PiWFjU

Outside the lab, I’m all about birds 🦅and art 🎨. It’s like weekend research, but with more instinct than effort —watching animals in the wild is very inspiring. Check out this short piece from Victoria Thomas @LocalNewsDena on my birding adventures: https://t.co/YNLafTjuOK

Thank you @DiscoverMag for a nice summary of "The Unbearable Slowness of Being" by me and @mameister4! https://t.co/ZoPBANdR67 If you are new to neuroscience, give it a read! Small suggestion & a little plug: How about using my art instead of the stock photo? 🎨😊

What do neuroscientists do on weekends? Art is an option! 🎨 Here’s a piece I did in 2021 when writing “the Unbearable Slowness of Being” https://t.co/rUUyNaWoD1. This painting is on the wall of our lab. Check out more arts & science here: https://t.co/aoRBzfJsLR https://t.co/fMo1NYS4V9

Fun fact: a good portion of the literature search was done during a remote rotation while COVID-quarantining in a hotel in Singapore. Three years later I’m still suffering from COVID… https://t.co/TlWgAnfImG

Few-shot learning observed: it took me 6 peanuts to befriend a local fox squirrel. Now he checks my window daily—no extinction yet. Sure, squirrels already have representations of humans as food sources, but doesn't this hint at meta-learning too? (Photo today at @Caltech) https://t.co/GIlvDUCrNt

COVID got me good😷, probably from the epic party at @MITMuseum... No regrets for me though—Seeing Shannon's Theseus is a Maze researcher's dream come true! Wishing everyone at #CCN2024 @CogCompNeuro good health! Stay safe, folks! https://t.co/KrpGbEIA5h
