Renormalization in the brain? With @andreasantoro.bsky.social and @jesseba.bsky.social we're organizing a workshop at @cosynemeeting.bsky.social (Lisbon, March 16) on how coarse-graining principles from physics can explain neural computation across scales. nplresearch.github.io/neurorenorm2...

My mom, @bettyscarpino.bsky.social, has a piece going on display at the Smithsonian’s Renwick Gallery!!! The @washingtonpost.com mentioned her in their great review of the show. She’s many of our biggest social media booster, so let’s show her lots of love ❤️ www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...
A screenshot of text from the WaPo article that highlights Betty Scarpino’s name and has a red arrow pointing towards her. There’s a picture of quilts from the show below the text. The text reads, “A rich display of ceramics by Katherine Po-yu Choy, woodworking by Betty J. Scarpino and a tapestry by Consuelo Jimenez Underwood — each one a state fair entry — gathers these works as evidence of the formative influence of craft fairs on artists, and vice versa. “

What do the predictability limits of epidemics have to do with limits on our us of AI study biology? Tomorrow at 9am in Indore (1030pm today in Boston), I'm going to try and connect these dots during my #netscix2025 keynote lecture. Tune into the live feed here: www.youtube.com/live/frY8luh...

Our ability to identify mechanisms in higher-order systems is dependent on the observation scale (which depends on the network and dynamical model). Prof @lordgrilo.bsky.social presenting at #NetSciX2025 on reconstructing higher order mechanisms.

Let me take this opportunity to thank all of my collaborators throughout the years, my lab @nplab.bsky.social, as well as the mentors that inspired, pushed, and --very useful!-- criticized me along the way! Stay tuned for hiring announcements in the next few months!

I am extremely honoured to receive the @ERC_Research #ERCCoG award for #RUNES. For the next five years, I will be working on the mathematical, computational, and experimental (!!) sides to understand how higher-order interactions change how we think and coordinate.
