Thrilled to finally share this work on how ultrasound BCIs function under the hood. 🧠
It was an honor working with Whitney the pièce de résistance of his PhD work at @caltech.edu
Our sister FRO E11 Bio is well on their way to mapping every neuron in the brain. Check out their work on PRISM out today!
E11 Bio is excited to unveil PRISM technology for mapping brain wiring with simple light microscopes. Today, brain mapping in humans and other mammals is bottlenecked by accurate neuron tracing. PRISM uses molecular ID codes and AI to help neurons trace themselves.

Another new job alert! We're hiring a Manufacturing Engineer.
I told you it was coming soon. 😉

🚨 Forest Neurotech is hiring across domains and levels! 🚨
We just added a Hardware Test Engineer role and have open roles for SWEs and EEs. More coming soon.
If you (or someone you know) is mission driven, high IQ, and low ego, let's talk!
E11 Bio is launching Volara: an open-source Python library for block-wise processing of large volumetric microscopy datasets! 🧪🔬
Volara features block-wise task abstractions, making scalable image processing more accessible, robust, and repeatable.

These results are ~consistent with the findings from @carandinilab.net & team in "Neural correlates of blood flow measured by ultrasound"

New work from Alan Urban @openfus.bsky.social & team shows that functional ultrasound neuroimaging and neural spiking rates are well correlated.
[Recording with fUS and neuropixels...] "fUS images can be interpreted as a robust estimator of local spiking activity"
🧪 Transforming biomedical discovery needs proteomics that is specific and accurate, but also faster and cheaper
@parallelsq.bsky.social is proud to introduce 9-plex PSMtags: a new mass tag that improves sequencing and increases throughput in sensitive proteomics 👇
www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
We are excited to introduce ‘time’ as a new domain for proteomics multiplexing!
It enables:
-Label-free multiplexing
-Combinatorial multiplexing with plexDIA
Using combined 9-plexDIA and 3-timePlex we demonstrate 27-plex DIA 🚀
Increasing throughput in mass spec proteomics requires new ways to model the increased complexity of the spectra.
We are delighted to share JMod, our new open source software developed at @parallelsq.bsky.social , which enables new multiplexing approaches.

Legislation proposed to regulate neurotech and neurodata has captured interest from state and federal lawmakers.
Bloomberg Law shares more: "The compliance costs [of] privacy laws could limit businesses to certain states or solely to the academic realm."

"Fungi and archaea represent some of the most fascinating yet understudied branches of the tree of life. [...] There’s little doubt that we’ve barely scratched the surface of their capabilities."
So stoked for this project from @cultivarium.bsky.social and @wellcometrust.bsky.social!
