“NEUROTWIN was much more than just a research grant – it was a transformative experience,” says TINS director, Raul Cristian Muresan.
The collaborations built and the research enabled through this project have permanently altered the trajectory of neuroscience in Romania, turning a once-overlooked field into a vibrant, growing research community.
To achieve its goals, TINS, as the leading partner, brought together world-class partners:
- Ernst Strüngmann Institut (Germany)
- Sainsbury Wellcome Centre for Neural Circuits and Behaviour (UK)
- Institut Imagine (France).
Their collaboration gave our researchers access to cutting-edge facilities, training, and mentorship—opening doors that changed careers and elevated Romanian neuroscience to the European stage.

🤝 We’re deeply grateful for their trust, generosity, and shared vision.

With an expanding team of researchers, TINS is now leading neuroscience in Eastern Europe, setting new standards in brain science and building a future rooted in excellence.

The Transylvanian Institute of Neuroscience (TINS) was launched in 2017 to establish a world-class neuroscience hub in Romania. Turning this vision into reality required expertise, resources and international collaboration. Enter NEUROTWIN, designed to accelerate the development of neuroscience in e...

Our paper in Cell Systems in on the cover of the journal. Congrats to Maria Ercsey-Ravasz Levente Varga Vasile Vlad Moca Santiago Canals and the rest of the team. It took years to get to this point, but now it's finally out!

Cool ideas!

Cool ideas!

We discuss a possibility that the entire universe on its most fundamental level is a neural network. We identify two different types of dynamical degrees of freedom: "trainable" variables (e.g. bias vector or weight matrix) and "hidden" variables (e.g. state vector of neurons). We first consider sto...

Amazing new research from Earl Miller!

Eisen and Kozachkov et al. develop a method to measure changes in neural stability. They find evidence that an anesthetic causes unconsciousness by destabilizing neural activity. It makes activity more susceptible to perturbation. This is due to excess inhibition in the brain.

Human bone ultrasound with Superlets! A technique we developed and published in 2021. Our method was developed for analysis of brain signals, but it is now gaining a lot of traction in Meteorology, Earth Sciences, Physics, Electrical Engineering, Architecture, Biomedical Engineering, etc. The ultimate satisfaction of scientists is to know that their work has contributed to advancing science beyond their narrow research field.

Our new paper is out. We show that presenting visual stimuli in random order of visibility impairs humans' ability to recognize them. Unlike machines, where random presentation of samples is essential for learning (to avoid overfitting), in humans randomness is detrimental. Humans need predictable contexts in order to be able to process information, and this is so fundamental to the brain that it influences even primary processes, such as object recognition. The impact of this discovery is important for our educational system: Just throwing concepts at children, without proper context and a systematic rule, will lead to poor learning performance. An optimal system for humans is one where the context is coherent and the input is governed by systematic rules.

Recognising objects is a vital skill on which humans heavily rely to respond quickly and adaptively to their environment. Yet, we lack a full understanding of the role visual information sampling plays in this process, and its relation to the individual’s priors. To bridge this gap, the eye-moveme...
