Nencki Open Lab We are happy to announce our next workshop – From keypoints to behavior. Hands-on pose estimation and behavior analysis! This practical workshop will guide you step by step through the proces…

The workshop will take place on Oct 14-17th in Cantanhede, Portugal. Please find more info here - nenckiopenlab.org/keypoints/. TAs are: Konrad Danielewski (Nencki) and @flaviaricciardi.bsky.social (CNC UC).

During the workshop, you will learn how to navigate the DeepLabCut workflow, annotate your data properly, select the right model backbone, train it, and evaluate its performance. You will also learn how to preprocess and structure your data for advanced behavioral analysis!

We are pleased to announce our first workshop in Portugal, which will guide you step by step through the process of pose estimation and unsupervised behavior analysis, focusing on two powerful tools: DeepLabCut and Keypoint-MoSeq!

Why is behaviour so variable? How can we interpret our chaotic results, and what do they tell us about the function of the brain?

Join us in Buenos Aires on Aug 9th to discuss the complexity, context-dependence, and robustness of behaviour on our Workshop of Ideas!

We are super happy to announce the fourth edition of School of Ideas in Neuroscience! Come to Warsaw in September for in-depth talks, discussions and workshops that will help you to make sense of your data! The deadline for registration is July 21, 2025.

And this is our organizational team - Matilde Perrino, Klara Finta, @vigji.bsky.social, @mtkostecki.bsky.social, Anna Chrzanowska and @nataliakras.bsky.social!

And so our Decoding the Brain workshop is over! Thank you for three days of engaging discussions; we hope that you will come back home with new ideas and new confusions!

And the last day of the workshop - we start by a discussion on representations led by Alfonso Renart!

And in the afternoon session - Mazviita Chirimuuta.

Today we start with a workshop by Romain Brette on neural codes.

And the second session - Farid Zahoun on what we mean when we talk about representations.

Today we have started our Workshop of Ideas in Neuroscience - Decoding the brain: from methods to meaning - with a talk by @heikestein.bsky.social!

Today we run our Spectral Data Analysis Workshop with Axel Hutt!

This week we run electronics workshop at NERF, Leuven!

Please DO NOT copy paste answers to our applications questions from ChatGPT. Believe us - fifty other people will do the same trick. And we will have fifty one identical applications to discard.

We would like to remind you that the deadline for @openlabhd.bsky.social Spectral Data Analysis workshop is May 16th! Workshop is organized locally in Heidelberg and is free of charge.

Optics workshop continues!

The deadline for applying to our Workshop of Ideas in Neuroscience is Sunday, May 11th - only two days left to apply!

We are starting the fourth edition of Nencki Open Lab Optics and Microscopy course!

And the day two - Arduino, finally.

The Day One of @cam-openlab.bsky.social Electronics for Neuroscience workshop - we have built first circuits and are ready for more!

We will run multiple iterations of it!

We will run Part II of our online Bonsai workshop on May 9th! Join us to learn how to control lasers, cameras and more with Arduino and Bonsai! Link: nenckiopenlab.org/bonsai-online/

As argued by John Krakauer et al. most of the time we use "filler" verbs, promissory notes that we hope to "fill with substance" at some later time.

There is link in the last part of the thread!
