A cochlea imaged in light-sheet microscopy (right) with staining for spiral ganglion neurons (red) and inner hair cells (blue). You will develop AI-based methods to analyze these structures, for example via segmentation of the individual cells (right) that will support gene therapy development for hearing loss and a better overall understanding of the anatomy of hearing.

Plus, you can create pretty pictures as the one below :).

Drawing of the "Aeon" project, an open-source platform to study the neural basis of ethological behaviours over naturalistic timescales.

Are you a neuroscientist with great coding skills, or a software engineer interested in the brain?

We are recruiting for a research software engineer to help us build pipelines to process weeks of neural and behavioural recordings from freely moving animals.

Yep, it lags a little. But still quite impressive considering that each "pixel" is a 150 MPixel multires image. Overall the total number of 'adressable' pixels in this 2D image are 225x225x150 Mpix = 7.6 Tera pixels. #ImageJ #Fiji #BigDataViewer

Python package managers: uv vs pixi? When I talk to people about Python package management in 2025 I see the following tools in active use; uv, pixi, pip, conda, mamba, micromamba and poetry. There may be others, but I don’t hear much ab...

For Python package management I use a mixture of pixi, uv and conda depending on the task I'm doing.

I wrote up a long form post about the history of these tools, why each one exists, and why I settled on these choices in my workflow.
