🧠🌟🐭 Excited to share some of my postdoc work on the evolution of dexterity!

We compared deer mice evolved in forest vs prairie habitats. We found that forest mice have:
(1) more corticospinal neurons (CSNs)
(2) better hand dexterity
(3) more dexterous climbing, which is linked to CSN number🧡

Assessing the Similarity of Real Matrices with Arbitrary Shape Singular Angle Similarity measures the similarity of real, arbitrary matrices by taking into account their two-dimensional structure, outperforming standard methods like cosine similarity or Frobenius...

If you need to compare matrices or two-dimensional data that can be brought into matrix form, consider using Singular Angle Similarity: journals.aps.org/prxlife/abst...

Spent a week in Arizona with these amazing people at the inaugural summit for the Raynor Institute. We are trying to advance the next generation of neuromodulation to help those with cerebellar disorders and maybe more.

Even though UNC had an off year, at least Duke are not national champions. I’ll take it. Along with a natty for @uncwomenssoccer.bsky.social
