INCF/OCNS SoftwareWG Dev session: Denis Alevi: Brian2CUDA: November 3, 2022, 1600 UTC over Zoom
by Ankur Sinha Oct. 25, 2022

Oct. 25, 2022

Dear all, Please join us for our next dev session on Brian2CUDA: https://ocns.github.io/SoftwareWG/2022/10/18/dev-session-denis-alevi-brian2… Denis Alevi will introduce the Brian2CUDA tool in this session, and discuss its development. We will also have a discussion on GPU based simulation in neuroscience after the presentation. - Date: Thursday, November 3, 2022, 1600 UTC (Click here to see your local time: https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Dev+session%3A+De…) - Location (Zoom, login required): https://ucl.zoom.us/j/95692778384?pwd=VldIQ3hPTU1zczNpYjQxSSt4Z25xdz09 The abstract for the talk is below: Graphics processing units (GPUs) are widely available and have been used with great success to accelerate scientific computing in the last decade. These advances, however, are often not available to researchers interested in simulating spiking neural networks, but lacking the technical knowledge to write the necessary low-level code. Writing low-level code is not necessary when using the popular Brian simulator, which provides a framework to generate efficient CPU code from high-level model definitions in Python. Here, we present Brian2CUDA, an open-source software that extends the Brian simulator with a GPU backend. Our implementation generates efficient code for the numerical integration of neuronal states and for the propagation of synaptic events on GPUs, making use of their massively parallel arithmetic capabilities. We benchmark the performance improvements of our software for several model types and find that it can accelerate simulations by up to three orders of magnitude compared to Brian’s CPU backend. Currently, Brian2CUDA is the only package that supports Brian’s full feature set on GPUs, including arbitrary neuron and synapse models, plasticity rules, and heterogeneous delays. When comparing its performance with Brian2GeNN, another GPU-based backend for the Brian simulator with fewer features, we find that Brian2CUDA gives comparable speedups, while being typically slower for small and faster for large networks. By combining the flexibility of the Brian simulator with the simulation speed of GPUs, Brian2CUDA enables researchers to efficiently simulate spiking neural networks with minimal effort and thereby makes the advancements of GPU computing available to a larger audience of neuroscientists.

Funded PhD Scholarship in Developmental Neurorobotics at Sheffield Hallam University (UK)
by Di Nuovo, Alessandro Oct. 23, 2022

Oct. 23, 2022

About the Project This scholarship will support the PhD candidate to carry out frontier research in Developmental Neurorobotics, a combination of Neuromorphic Computing and Cognitive Developmental Robotics. The PhD candidate will work with the Professor Alessandro Di Nuovo and his team, who have been awarded funding by the EPSRC for his research in the field. We are looking for an outstanding student to work with the team of a new EPSRC project. The research will pioneer the new developmental neuromorphic paradigm, which will be a synergic combination that will go beyond the limitations of the individual paradigms: neuromorphic computing will provide efficient brain-like resources able to process a more accurate representation of the real world, meanwhile developmental robotics will deliver the missing learning mechanisms for complex applications of neuromorphic spiking neural networks. The short-term objective is to demonstrate feasibility and lay the foundation of a biologically plausible framework to simulate the human-like learning process of numerical and abstract cognition, a fundamental characteristic of human intelligence. The team long-term goal is to create an artificial mind for robots that 'grows up' like a child's brain. This will be underpinned by neuromorphic computing which emulates the deep-lying architecture of the brain and will allow it to interpret and adapt to situations. As well as enabling the creation of robots with a human-like ability to reason, behave and interact the creation of an artificial mind will boost research in life sciences disciplines such as neuroscience by allowing researchers to run biologically realistic simulations to test theories. By simulating information on the inner workings of the brain that could not otherwise be detected, it could enhance our understanding of neurodevelopmental and learning disorders and lead to new treatments. Eligibility Information on entry requirements can be found here<https://www.findaphd.com/common/clickCount.aspx?theid=147190&type=184&DID=6…> The ideal candidate should have a Masters degree in Neuromorphic Computing, Computational Neuroscience, Machine Learning, or closely related disciplines in AI and Robotics, excellent programming skills and experience in interdisciplinary research.

Computational Neuroscience and Computational Neurology
by André Fabio Kohn Oct. 20, 2022

Oct. 20, 2022

Computational Neuroscience has shown a tremendous development in the last decades, and we think it is ripe to contribute substantially to computational neurology. In selected cases, large-scale and multi-scale models encompassing sensory receptors, neurons, muscles, bones, joints and other structures can be modeled to represent different degrees of dysfunction of a specific subsystem associated with a given neurological pathology. The model simulations can shed light to early signs of the disease (earlier detection than with current diagnosis techniques) and provide estimates of the progression of disease as a function of different treatment courses. We show in a recent paper published in the Journal of Neural Engineering [ https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1741-2552/ac91f8/pdf] how neuropathies associated with Guillain-Barré Syndrome can affect functional aspects of the control of foot movement in a controlled setting, which is suitable for clinical evaluation. Muscle electrical activity also was shown to be a useful quantifier of the demyelination process. The multi-scale model encompasses neuronal ionic channels of spinal cord neurons up to a model of the foot and its muscles acting around the ankle joint when controlling force and foot position in a controlled lab experiment. The extension of such an approach to other peripheral nervous disorders or to spinal cord related pathologies (e.g., motoneuron diseases) seems quite feasible, provided that parameter data from patients are available to realize a biologically compatible model.

Fully-funded computational neuroscience PhD at the University of Manchester
by Caroline Lea-Carnall Oct. 18, 2022

Oct. 18, 2022

Link to project: https://www.findaphd.com/phds/project/bbsrc-dtp-neural-network-models-to-in… About the Project Neuroplasticity is the mechanism that underpins the brain’s ability to learn. It is an umbrella term that encompasses multiple processes occurring at different spatial and temporal scales (1, 2). The most commonly discussed type of plasticity is long-term potentiation (LTP) which is defined as an increase in efficacy between synapses of two neurons. Experiments designed to measure LTP are often done in cell slices or cultures using patch-clamp techniques. However, we often want to promote (and measure) plasticity in humans but its not clear how changes in synaptic efficacy manifest in macroscopic imaging measurements such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), or electroencephalography (EEG) that are available for use in humans. This project aims to link our detailed cellular-level knowledge of plasticity processes with systems-level observations in humans and is focussed on answering the following 2 questions: 1. How can we modulate plasticity non-invasively in the brain? 2. How can we measure plasticity in vivo? To answer these questions you will combine computational modelling of biophysically realistic large-scale neural networks that exhibit plasticity with cutting edge neuroimaging techniques to test the model predictions. The model will be adapted so that its output can be compared to the three major imaging techniques described above and you will determine how changes in connectivity between and within regions in the model predict changes in our imaging metrics. There will be a particular focus on developing an EEG marker of plasticity as this currently does not exist. Finally, you will test the model predictions in an imaging study combining stimulation, EEG, MRI and MRS in a proof-of-concept experiment in humans. This will provide us with a deeper understanding of how to modulate and measure plasticity that can be deployed in the future for medical applications of brain stimulation such as in Parkinson’s disease, depression and pain control. Eligibility Applicants must have obtained or be about to obtain a First or Upper Second class UK honours degree, or the equivalent qualifications gained outside the UK, in an appropriate area of science, engineering or technology.

Closing Soon! Postdoc (3 years) in computational neuroscience/machine learning at the University of Nottingham (UK)
by Mark Humphries Oct. 17, 2022

Oct. 17, 2022

The Humphries’ lab at the University of Nottingham is seeking a postdoc to join a project developing a precision medicine platform for neuromodulation, in collaboration with MachineMedicine Technologies and St George’s Hospital, London. A crucial unmet need in the management of Parkinson’s disease is how to reliably identify patients that would benefit from deep brain stimulation, the most effective treatment for Parkinson’s. The project team will create a machine-learning platform that synthesises wide-ranging personal and clinical data, combined with neural modelling, to predict the suitability of each Parkinson’s disease patient for deep brain stimulation. An exciting opportunity for the pipeline will be integrating computational models of the neural circuits disrupted in Parkinson’s. The Humphries’ lab researches fundamental insights into how the joint activity of neurons encodes actions in the world and is disrupted in movement disorders (https://www.humphries-lab.org) The post is for 3 years, full-time. Nottingham University welcomes researchers from around the globe. As part of this support, the university will provide financial support to the post-holder for all visa costs. Unsure if you're a good fit for the post? Got any questions? Then contact Mark for a chat: mark.humphries(a)nottingham.ac.uk<mailto:.humphries@nottingham.ac.uk>.
