@EBRAINS can be a home for your #Neuroscience software, too. Find out how EBRAINS builds an infrastructure to foster #interoperability. And you can also meet me there!
Register for the EBRAINS Developers Day on 13 March in Heidelberg!
It will feature introductions for developers on how to integrate tools and services into the EBRAINS software distribution or to integrate services via EBRAINS (workflows).

3/ AI breakthroughs like AlphaFold wouldn’t be possible without decades of work on datasets.
e.g., AlphaFold was trained on protein structures from the Protein Data Bank (PDB), which took 50+ years and ~$20 *billion* to create.
This is the kind of foundational effort AI needs.

Yes and the most boring of them all but the highest impact is dataset curation with great metadata, preprocessing and QC + expert curation of annotations and knowledge.
There aren't enough smart people in biology doing something boring

i often meet a lot of founders in biology pursuing really crazy, revolutionary ideas. i love them! but i wish there were more people pursuing the boring ideas

We grieve the passing of Dr. Yves Frégnac.
Yves has shaped the study of cortical processing and plasticity. He heralded interdisciplinarity and was one of the founding fathers of our institute.
Our thoughts go to his family and to his friends in the community and beyond. xitter.cf/NeuroPSI_saclay/status…

Big shout out to those researchers who made their data available in PDB over the years
The Chemistry Nobel Prize winners today relied on that open academic data to train their models
We wouldn't have these advances if researchers hadn't made 200,000 protein structures available

"In this paper, we will argue that the existing ecosystem of neuroscientific open source software is brittle, and discuss why and how the neuroscience community needs to come together to ensure a healthy growth of our software landscape to the benefit of all."
I'm very pleased to see @UnivParisSaclay and @AgenceRecherche have signed this
The research information landscape requires fundamental change. Today, over 40 organisations commit to making openness of research information the norm.

A few days ago, the journal eLife published a self-study on the first year of its new publishing model, and it is well worth a look. Here are some notes based on my own experience with the journal as author and reviewing editor: markusmeister.com/2024/03/17….
Thousands of authors have put their trust in our vision for publishing.
Today, we look back at the first year of our new model in numbers. 1/3
