Self-study computational neuroscience | Coding, Textbooks, Math

bro do you know how many research papers get released on ai? those chineese professors releasing papers every day. its like: you think your are state of the art but suddenly another paper pops out that does it better

in germany its a masters degree in computer science, not biophysics. but german universities are limping back like crazy anyway

Hello my friend, I am a young man living in Syria. I am 21 years old and studying computer engineering. I am still a university student and need three years to graduate. I want to study computational neuroscience because it interests me, especially the topic of brain control of limbs and muscles. I want to migrate to one of the advanced countries like Russia or Germany to complete my studies. Currently, I do not work and my parents support me and give me money to complete my studies. I want to ask you what should I do in the next three years? Should I study a field of work and master it so that I can support myself and after graduation head towards studying a master’s degree in computational neuroscience or should I start studying computational neuroscience now? I really want advice and I have no one to guide me or direct me.

Great advice & approach..🧑‍💻Keep it🧠up..

I am learning much!

Great video!

Спасибо, очень информативно! Кстати, тебе не говорили, что ты очень похож на Джима Керра?

This is hugely valuable to me! Thanks for your advice and perspective.

I can see that this video was 1 year ago. Congrats on graduation! :)

yooooo i have read the dns lol
before watching this haha

Your videos have quickly become the gold standard intro to intro computational neuroscience videos. Thank you for all of them, Artem.

Your channel revealed that the field id always wanted to go into was real and has a name .
:) going to be finishing my biochemistry BS this year with three years of biophysics experience and I’m super excited to see what lays ahead!

I did materials science and engineering, have little coding experience, but am dying to get involved with brain computer interfaces (black mirror kindof inspiration). I have no idea what kind of projects to look for, or what fields would bridge my knowledge to this field, but I’m very overwhelmed at the idea of learning to code just from home. Pls help

Literally thank you for this. First steps into neuroscience on my own. Will try and keep u updated with my exciting journey. Hope I don’t give up and find what I am looking for 🙌

Ive done bachelors in cs now im thinking masters in comp neuroscience

Awesome video! Thanks!

An old spirit saying thanks to Artem! great/high quality KB sharing videos, I did not find a competitor that matching this.

I think the reason people get so hung up on deciding which programming language they want to go with is because deciding to learn a human language is a big deal. You need time and patience to learn human languages as an adult which is no small task. Of course, some of the differences between programming languages can also be very difficult that require time and patience of their own; but for sure the differences and time needed to learn human languages are of a much higher magnitude than programming languages; each programming language essentially just needs to describe the basic architecture which at its most basic level is the same everywhere.

Rumor has it that ChatGPT viewed this kid’s video and is now worried about job security… 😂

I’m American and I must say, nothings more encouraging to my self esteem than to see someone with English as a second language speak, present, and explain information 12X better than me….

Stack Overflow is dead

You are a notch above the rest buddy.... If not several notches. Your passion and approach are exemplary. Kudos 🎉

My attempt to summarize the video

1. Write on an index card the key information of the section you’re studying or the questions that may be asked
2. trial your memory at increasingly spaced repetitions
3. Make sure that when you’re studying and when you’re rewriting you’ve given an excited answer to the question: why do I want to learn this?

Thank you very much for this video. I am a practicing critical care physician and I have been interested in learning computational method to use it in critical care, neurocritical in particular. I can code with python and I have good grasp of algorithmic thinking and programming in general. My math, I am learning calculus nowadays and willing to follow your advice in linear algebra and differential equations. later im intending to take the course in ML by Andrew Ng but I am not quiet sure of my approach and roadmap, it would be of great help to give me some insights. Thank you :)

Very helpful video. All necessary information of how to start learn neuroscience by yourself. Especial thanks for a bunch of resources of the computational neuroscience.
Спасибо большое:)

Aside from the anecdote about struggling with baby math that every scientist half-ass learns anyway, the books to get background knowledge on the subject are pretty helpful for doing this work.

I probably could have just checked some university major plan and the books they used though.

Man you are amazing. Your channel deserves much more subsribers. I enjoy your videos so much ☺

subtitle please!

Hey Artem! Thanks for this sick video, bout to start this amazing journey B)

Dang that head swing is wiicked!!

This is a fantastic video. I'm about to take a 12 month sabbatical to study computational neuroscience and deep neural networks (two very different fields obviously). I love that your channel exists, and will keep a close eye on recommendations like this. I've already reached out to a computational neuroscience lab at one of the best universities near me and they're supportive to mentor me into a masters program or PhD program. This would be a pretty big career pivot for me and I'm excited about the possibilities.

כל הכבוד. מסביר ברור עניני ומקצועי. תודה והצלחה.

Will u do master ?

Thank you so much for this amazing video I have a degree in psychology and I want apply a master degree in computational neuroscience but i am a little bit scared because they usually looking for bac degree in math or physic I want to learn math and coding maybe I get a change to apply master in this field and I am open for advices. Thank you.

Sometimes I just am astonished and say what a time to be alive. Today, I discovered your channel, and thank you from bottom of my heart.

Very beautiful sweet sir

This info is very valuable, thank you for your work, greetings from Argentina!

“Do project right now and get dirty” Cool 😊

This is such a clear, well put together video. Cant believe I can watch this for free. Thank you so much you're amazing!

Hello Artem, I have to say that your content is so incredibly underrated! After several years of leaving school, your channel has reminded me how much I enjoy learning neuroscience and mathematics. I will be returning to school to finish my bahelors in biomedical science with minors in neuroscience and applied maths and could not be more excited to continue the journey. Thank you for your content

Did my AI MSc 20-odd years ago -- very pleased to hear Matlab is dying if not actually dead. Get Python and you can graduate with a usable skill that can earn you money even outside academia.

Thanks for making this video! It was really helpful and packed with useful tips. All the best in your journey!

Matlab is a slowly dying dinosaur, until you need elevate X to a fractional power 🤭
