The chapter discusses how notebooks are used in academic labs for prototyping, data organization, and code sharing, focusing on eLife's innovative approach to publishing scientific papers with executable code. It also emphasizes the importance of sharing data and processing methods in neuroscience, touching on challenges like software discrepancies. Additionally, the conversation delves into continual learning in AI, neural network advancements, and the incorporation of LLMs in cognitive and neuroscience labs.
Do you use Python in an academic setting? Maybe you run a research lab or teach courses using Python. Maybe you're even a student using Python. Whichever it is, you'll find a ton of great advice in this episode. I talk with Keiland Cooper about how he is using Python at his neuroscience lab at the University of California, Irvine.
