๐ฌ New #SpectralUnmixing paper by Ashesh et al. ( @florianjug): A #DeepLearning-based framework #MicroSplit for #FluorescenceMicroscopy that separates highly overlapping #fluorophore signals directly from multiplexed #ImagingData. Improves signal separation, reduces crosstalk, &amp; enables more accurate multi-channel #imaging w/o requiring extensive reference measurements. Canโt wait to try this out on our in vivo #2P/ #3P imaging data: ๐ https://doi.org/10.1038/s41592-026-03082-1 #Bioimag...

RE: https://wisskomm.social/@GermanAstroSoc/116210846409366882 Congratulations to Heike Rauer! ๐ I had the pleasure of experiencing her work firsthand in a colloquium at my former institute while I was still a student, and I remember her as an outstanding #planetary scientist. A very well-deserved recognition! #PlanetaryScience #exoplanets #SpacePhysics

๐ง Interesting review by Montague &amp; Kocher on #naturalistic #neuroscience: Nature-inspired neuroscience argues that neuroscience gains by looking beyond a few standard model organisms. Across the animal kingdom, nervous systems have evolved many different solutions for sensing, acting, and learning. Embracing this diversity may reveal both shared principles and mechanisms that mainstream models have missed: ๐ https://doi.org/10.1016/j.conb.2026.103202 #Neuroethology #Evolution #AnimalBe...

๐๐งฎ In a discussion on the #DEVONthink forum (https://discourse.devontechnologies.com/t/latex-inline-rendering-now-also-broken-in-dt-4-2/86193/5), I just came across #XyJax for #MathJax. I didnโt know it before. It&#39;s an Xy-pic extension for MathJax 3, so it can be used to draw commutative diagrams. Very useful. I will definitely experiment with this: ๐จโ๐ป https://github.com/sonoisa/XyJax-v3 ๐ https://sonoisa.github.io/xyjax-v3/xyjax-v3.html

From #DEVONthink To Goโs update notice today: &quot;Weโre naming this release after the mathematician Joseph-Louis #Lagrange (1736-1813) who made significant contributions to the fields of #analysis, #NumberTheory, and both classical and celestial #mechanics. Lagrangeโs work has had a profound impact on our understanding of #celestial mechanics and has practical applications in #SpaceExploration.&quot; That is exactly the kind of detail that makes me love this tool โค๏ธ @devontechnologie...

๐ง New paper by Cowley et al: Compact deep neural network models of the #VisualCortex . The authors show that neural responses in primate visual cortex can be predicted by much smaller, interpretable #DeepNeuralMetworks than previously assumed. By constraining model architecture and parameters, they achieve strong predictive performance while revealing computational structure in cortical processing. ๐ https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-026-10150-1 #Neuroscience #AI #CompNeuro #DNN

#arXiv has announced that, from July 1, 2026, it will become an independent #nonprofit after many years at #CornellUniversity.
