I’m excited about this collaborative project by @sunw37.bsky.social, @johanwinn.bsky.social, and many other talented contributors. Read about how our @hhmijanelia.bsky.social team imaged thousands of neurons in mouse hippocampus as mice learned cognitive tasks over several days: hhmi.news/4hXIp7r

Great article by @nikomccarty.bsky.social in @asimovpress.bsky.social focusing on our work at E11 Bio to scale connectomics to entire mammalian brains. Tackling the most devastating neurological conditions and unlocking brain-inspired AGI requires rapid innovation!

Can we treat brain disorders by restoring neural connections?

For centuries, neuroscientists could only guess. But connectomics—a method seeking to create a 3D model of every neural connection in the brain—is moving closer to providing answers.

E11 Bio is at the forefront...🧵

Today we are sharing the progress we have made towards dramatically reducing the cost of whole-brain connectomes! We believe this is vital for unlocking new disease treatments and human-like AI. Extremely proud of the team we have built at E11 Bio🔥!

🧪 E11 Bio is excited to share a major step towards brain mapping at 100x lower cost, making whole-brain connectomics at human & mouse scale feasible (🧠→🔬→💻). Critical for curing brain disorders, building human-like AI systems, and even simulating human brains.

Hopefully this social media account will more highlight my... fun side?
