Congratulations to our colleague @MichelleMoerel for being awarded a prestigious personal @NWONieuws Vidi grant! :)
Thrilled to share that I have been awarded an NWO Vidi grant! Over the next years, I’ll study the role of the corticothalamic circuitry in auditory attention using ultra-high MRI, intracranial EEG, and computational modeling @MaCSBio maastrichtuniversity.nl/news…

Many thanks to EBRAINS' management to heed our call at last! I am looking forward to participating to this effort and I am really excited to see the community take the reins./end

Really pleased to see this call finally go out! The Science & Technology Committee of EBRAINS that I chaired over the last 3 years had been pushing for such a roadmap, and did a lot of preparatory work taking inspiration from similar efforts in particle physics to plan for one./1
EBRAINS is pleased to announce a call for contributions to the EBRAINS 10-Year Roadmap 2026–2036.
This call is the first major step in a community-driven process that will define the scientific, clinical and technological priorities guiding the evolution of EBRAINS as Europe’s digital research infrastructure for neuroscience.

More than 17k submissions to the @MSCActions PF call this year, up 7k from its "historic" baseline at around 10k. I am not quite sure what it says about R&D in Europe but I am not sure it's good.

My department @MaCSBio is looking to support 2 MSCA PF candidates this year (deadline 10 Sept. 2025).
Topics:
* metabolic modelling of brain cells;
* sparse coding in SNNs.
DM me if interested.

Extending human healthspans and reducing the impacts of aging requires long-term research investments.
@RenaudJolivet & colleagues from @MaastrichtU emphasize the need for funding large-scale and systems-based aging research in their @FrontPolicyLabs policy outlook ⬇️

@MaCSBio is looking for candidates to support for the MSCA PF later this year for projects in cellular computational neuroscience and computational metabolism of glial cells.
I am at the @Mariecurie_alum meeting in Krakow these days if you'd like to meet me for a chat.

There are many good brain RNAseq datasets out there. Are there equivalent good proteome datasets, ideally at the whole genome level, for healthy brain tissue? Links appreciated.
