Manuel Brenner and I managed to organize this workshop not knowing we were gonna end up being new neighbors this month. The lineup speaks for itself.

There were some last minute cancellations so we jumped in to fill their big shoes and will talk about the future directions of the new labs too!

⚡️ Excited to introduce ZAPBench, our #ICLR2025 spotlight: The Zebrafish Activity Prediction Benchmark measures progress in predicting neural activity within an entire vertebrate brain (70k+ neurons!)

Explore interactive visualizations, datasets, code + paper: google-research.github.io/zapbench

🧠🧪
ZAPBench
ZAPBench evaluates how well different models can predict the activity of over 70,000 neurons in a novel larval zebrafish dataset.

Hi world! This is the brand-new BlueSky account of the Machine Learning in Science (@jakhmack.bsky.social) lab. We create probabilistic #MachineLearning and #AI Tools for scientific discovery — but more on that soon!
For now let’s introduce ourselves with some pictures of our recent group retreat.
