Generated a quick plot to see usage trends for Open Source Brain v2 (#OSBv2): an integrated #research platform for #neuroscience that indexes multiple model and data sources (#DANDI, #ModelDB, #Biomodels, #Github) and provides compute resources on the #cloud in "workspaces". It also includes specialist applications: #NWBExplorer for working with data in the NeuroData Without Borders (#NWB) format; #NetPyNE-UI for biophysically detailed #ComputationalModelling and a #JupyterLab environment.

We are very happy to provide a consolidated update on the #NeuroML ecosystem in our @eLife paper, “The NeuroML ecosystem for standardized multi-scale modeling in neuroscience”: https://doi.org/10.7554/eLife.95135.3

#NeuroML is a standard and software ecosystem for data-driven biophysically detailed #ComputationalModelling endorsed by the @INCF and CoMBINE, and includes a large community of users and software developers.

The #Izhikevichmodel is a powerful tool for simulating the #spiking and bursting behavior of #neurons with a remarkable balance between biological relevance and computational efficiency 💫 Here is a short introduction along with a #Python implementation to simulate various types of #cortical neurons, including regular spiking, fast spiking, and bursting neurons:

How's Friday going folks? I've been working on standardising the #Purkinje Cell model from Zang et al 2018 to #NeuroML. Exported the morphology already, on to the converting the individual Ion channels next.

You can use the converted bits from here: https://github.com/sanjayankur31/ZangEtAl2018/tree/development

A general issue concerns seductive #research black-box tools (or, equivalently, trending methods "inspired" by published works one doesn't really understand): easy to incur #overfitting, which implies modelling not only the "signal" being studied in too few data, but also (or mostly) their useless noise.

Recursive: if we fall into the trap (no proper #validation), our readers may be led to believe that these shortcuts have a chance to work, perpetuating anti-culture.

A concerning post-publication exercise (which led the original flawed publication to #retraction) on how easy is for our "intuition" of #ComputationalModelling to deceive ourselves and others

Here, "others" seem to include editors and some reviewers (whose expertise maybe was not directly in modelling) of a respected journal. Plus readers who cited a flawed work and propagated the flaw

Hola all, I'll primarily be posting about #cognitive #neuroscience #mentalhealth #computationalmodelling #psychiatry #anxiety #depression #neuroimaging #fMRI but occasionally about parochial East London concerns 👋

On the 🇪🇺 Day of Languages find out how @kennysmithed and the research team @EdinburghUni use a combination of experiments & #computationalmodelling to uncover some big ideas in #evolutionary #linguistics.
