Ey. Take your demoralizing elsewhere. May I recommend #Twitter? No, I'm not calling it X.

"The #left" as a #pejorative must stop, because the talking points are basically so vein and ignorant of the problems that is clearly a result of psy-ops. #ThinkTanks got in your brain, boy.

As for me, I reject the #degeneracy and delusions of grandeur that the average #oligarch has. They're #narcissists and #hedonists. I'm about freeing people from their clutches, not fashion a iron glove.

@NicoleCRust

If I understand your question,
I will go for brain lesions research showing but instead reduction then plasticity —concept that everyone confuses/mixes with:

L. Pessoa et al.
#Overlapping

GM Edelman et al.
#degeneracy
#redundancy

Michael L Anderson et al. #NeuralReuse

D Hebb et al.
#NeuronalEnsemble

then as well, wtf differs those from: #MultipleRealizability ?

@karihoffman yeah #degeneracy seems to be ubiquitous and in my PhD lab we started doing lots of sensitivity analyses after the papers from Eve's lab came out like this one -- Similar network activity from disparate circuit parameters and then we did a lot of background research on where the ideas came from for neuroscience. That's how we came across the 2 papers I cited earlier.

We did a lot of work on degeneracy across the scales in #neuroscience. Last year we wrote a review where we emphasize that LFP interpretations require recognition of degeneracy across multiple scales -- Active Dendrites and Local Field Potentials: Biophysical Mechanisms and Computational Explorations #ShamelessPlug :P

side note and a bit #offtopic -- 2 members wrote a big review on degeneracy and my contributions were only mentioned in the acknowledgment section ​ I was a grad student at the time and didn't know any better and still struggle with who should get acknowledgement vs authorship. Kinda sad how academia doesn't follow some community-approved norm for giving scientists credit -- see my poll here https://neuromatch.social/@manisha/110556283019459141 -- still struggling with how to approach that topic with the PI as that was one of the many reasons why I am no longer an active academic but trying to change how #academia and #science work -- starting with our very own neuromatch.social -- we have lots of things planned and all instance members are welcome to join us in changing how we do and communicate science #neuromatchstodon @academicchatter

@Neurograce if you use this discussion to guide future talks/research, I would be very grateful if you cite the discussion thread. I know that's not how things are done traditionally but who says we can't change traditions? This way we can all start working as a community of scientists collaborating together and giving ample credit to each other rather than competing against each other :)

@Neurograce If I had to choose 1 word it would be -- #degeneracy

I could be wrong but this is likely the first few papers (by Tononi and Eldelman and others) to talk about it in depth and then was adopted by the #neuroscience field

Degeneracy and complexity in biological systems

Measures of degeneracy and redundancy in biological networks

@mcnees what did he have to say about #conservative #degeneracy ?
