A new iteration of TENSS (www.tenss.ro) is unfolding. Thanks to all the wonderful people who make this oasis of pure fun, curiosity and knowledge happen year after year! A playful path on the quest to understand how things (brains) work by systematically opening (m)any black boxes of sorts.

Dinu F Albeanu @dinanthos.bsky.social · 10/03/2026
Join us at TENSS 2026 to open black boxes, explain how things/brains work and debate the impact (or lack or it) of various new technologies on understanding of the brain and on society. tenss.ro Apply by: March 15th!

A great poet once said, “It ain’t where you’re from, it’s where you’re at.” For developing brain cells, it’s both! Published in @cp-neuron.bsky.social, Stan Kerstjens & @tonyzador.bsky.social put forward a new theory for how the brain organizes itself during development. www.cshl.edu/a-new-theory...

First preprint from the lab! Using intracellular recordings & analysis of 2-photon imaging data, we show that spiking & neuromodulatory input during experience drive a reorganization of visuomotor inputs in V1 layer 2/3 neurons, consistent with enhanced visuomotor cancellation - bioRxiv link below.

Georg Keller @georgkeller.bsky.social · 30/01/2026
We think cortex might function like a JEPA. It looks like prediction errors in layer 2/3 are not computed against input (as is the idea in predictive processing), but against a representation in latent space (i.e. like in a JEPA arxiv.org/abs/2301.08243 or RPL doi.org/10.1101/2025...).

DNN models of the brain are getting bigger. Are we replacing one complicated system in vivo with another in silico? In new work, we seek the *smallest* DNN models of visual cortex, balancing prediction with parsimony. It turns out these compact models are surprisingly small! rdcu.be/e5H8G

Adam Kampff’s passion for understanding and explaining the world was unmatched. Living by example and not ever compromising on his dreams, Adam was uncanny in making people realize they can learn and understand anything and everything. Keep his dream alive! In his own words: tinyurl.com/ye29csw3
