neuroscience/fedora/musings
I was tinkering with JavaScript and OpenLayers recently and came up with a web application that shows the different Neuroscience labs on the world and some summary information on them. Still needs a lot of data to be really useful, but it's a start.
I use the cluster here at university to run my simulations in Nest. This post documents some tips and tricks I've come up with to make my cluster tasks easier.
Most researchers keep a research journal where we note down our musings, notes and so on. While a paper diary is still quite common, I'd really prefer something on my laptop/computer. There are various applications out there for journal writing, but none of them really match up to good old LaTeX. I've written a simple script that makes it really easy to maintain a journal using LaTeX - Calliope.
I've released a new version of Zaphod - A LaTeX change tracking tool that I've been working on recently.
Introducing Zaphod - a Python script that attempts to help LaTeX users collaborate over their academic writing. It uses the power of Git to track changes, latexdiff to generate a PDF with annotated additions and removals from the document, and provides a simple interactive review tool that lets the user pick what changes they want to accept. You can use Zaphod to track changes in your LaTeX documents.
I now maintain a COPR repository where I host neuroscience related packages that Fedora users can use. These packages will be submitted for review to Fedora when I have time in the future.
I recently attended the conference for computational neuroscience (CNS 2015) in Prague. This post is a summary of the event. These have not been proofread at all. They're just what I noted during the conference.
