Breakthrough plot below. This superhuman performance arises because of the ability to exhaustively and tirelessly carry out solution searches atan unprecedented scale. (3/4)
In bioinformatics, it discovered 40 novel methods for single-cell data analysis that outperformed the top human-developed methods on a public leaderboard. In epidemiology, it generated 14 models that achieved SotA for forecasting COVID-19 hospitalizations. (2/4)
Google presents an AI system to write expert-level scientific software. Using LLMs + tree search, it invented novel methods in bioinformatics, epidemiology, geospatial analysis & more, often surpassing human SOTA. (1/4)

Seizures are just hyperexcitability, right? Think again! Inhibition is everywhere in the brain, but how does it change during a seizure? We re-imagined a new approach to assay neuronal excitability using all-optical interrogation in vivo. Check it out! 👇 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Temporal lobe epilepsy has a complex genetic basis, but how genetic vulnerability leads to brain changes is unclear. Ngo et al. show that higher risk for TLE in healthy children is linked to brain thinning in key regions that mirror patterns in patients. tinyurl.com/4fdxk5jb

🚨New preprint alert🚨 We used closed-loop optogenetics to causally test the importance of inhibitory spike timing in network function and found that manipulating PV+ cell theta phase locking in the dentate gyrus can shift seizure susceptibility (both ways!)
Neuroplasticity is often adaptive. But in epilepsy, it can ‘turn’ against the brain. After a single prolonged seizure, neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus increases sixfold, producing neurons that miswire the circuit rather than repair it. This diagram illustrates normal granule…
